Stamptember - Paper Rose

Did you manage to get the must-have Stamptember collab set between Simon Says Stamp and Paper Rose? It is now sold out, so I hope you managed to nab one! I paired with with the Scandi Circle stencil from Paper Rose, then added some white gel pen highlights.

Stamptember!

It's Stamptember - a month-long celebration of stamping, hosted by Simon Says Stamp. The lovely people at Simon Says Stamp sent me this beautiful Floral Frames stamp set to play with. Sadly, it didn't arrive in time for me to join in with the blog party a few days ago, but it arrived today, so I got creating straight away!

Stamptember with Paper Rose and Simon Says Stamp

Today, Simon Says Stamp and Paper Rose have collaborated to produce a limited edition stamp set for Stamptember, and I've made 2 cards! 

I used my Copics to colour these pink poppies , then fussy cut them and layered them. I used an ink blending tool and the Stacked Blocks stencil to add some Distress Oxide ink in the background. I added some white gel pen to the anthers to make them stand out.

 I coloured these flowers and leaves using ink blending tools, using Distress Oxide inks. I fussy cut them out before arranging them over a card base that I had stenciled on. I added the Happy birthday sentiment, and then added dots of white gel pen over the stamens of the poppies to help then stand out.

Happy Stamptember!

 Happy Stamptember! 

I was hoping to join in with the blog party that happened earlier this month, but with international postage being what it is at the moment, I had to wait, but here's my card now!

I started with a panel of Yupo, coloured with Alcohol Inks and gold foil. I then stamped and gold embossed the sentiment from the "I am with you" stamp set onto a strip of vellum and wrapped it around the Yupo so that the adhesive would be hidden. I adhered the hole panel to a side-folding card base.

Stamptember with Picket Fence Studios and Simon Says Stamp

 Happy Stamptember! Today, I have a card using the brand new collaboration set between Picket Fence Studios and Simon Says Stamp!

I stamped the image of all of the cocktail glasses and coloured it with Copic markers. Now, I don't drink alcohol, but I reckon these drinks are (in order), a martini, long island iced tea, strawberry daquiri, lemon lime and bitters (although why anyone would put olives in a LLB is beyond me! LOL!), champagne cocktail, gin and tonic, Midori splice, blue lagoon and a purple dragon martini! 

I fussy cut the coloured image, and popped it up onto a grey background that I used the Triangle Collage Stencil with my Life CHanging Blender Brushes and Unicorn White pigment ink from Hero Arts. I added the sentiment uner the drinks, and finished with some Gin and Tonic sequins (because I couldn't NOT use them, now, could I?)

Stamptember collaboration with Picket Fence Studio

I am very excited today to be sharing this new stamp set collaboration from Picket Fence Studios and Simon Says Stamp for Stamptember! 

I stamped the cute little snowman using Black hybrid ink from Picket Fence Studios and then masked him and the snowdrifts using Inkadinkado masking paper. I stamped and white embossed the snowflakes, then inked the background with Distress Oxide Inks and my Life Changing Blender Brushes. I removed the fist mask to add a little bit of blue to the snowdrift in the front, then removed all masks to colour in the snowman with Copic markers. I finished with some stardust Stickles in the centres of the snowflakes.

Make sure you visit the blogs of the Picket Fence Studios Design Team members -  there are so many awesome cards to see!

I'll be sharing this card at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge, where the theme this week is "Stamp It".
