I made 4 cards using the Pretty Pink Posh Halloween Wreath stamp set. For the first 3 I did a more "clean and simple" look by just stamping and/or heat embossing the wreath image from the set onto various card stocks. 

I added splatter (of course lol) to all the panels, and used the Pretty Pink Posh Trick or Treat Script wafer die set. I stacked all those sentiment die cuts using white and Desert Storm card stocks and topped the one with Matte Gold card stock. 

I stamped the wreath from the Halloween Wreath set onto the inside of the cards (and put a white piece of card stock on the inside of the black card base) with Simon's Cobblestone ink.

For the fourth card I decided to amp it up a little bit and used the Halloween Wreath set along with the coordinating wafer die set. Using the coordinating die set you can easily build dimension and/or make fun shaker cards. I decided to take it a step further and make it into a shaker window:

OK on to today's card!

This is a 5x7" Card.

I was inspired by a recent card Nichol Spohr made HERE. I couldn't get the green zombie card she made out of my head so I created this one inspired by hers!

I used Picket Fence Studios' Triple Trouble stamp set and since this pumpkin image is BIG I decided to make a 5x7 card with it.

I also used the Tim Holtz Moon Mask stencil set, and Simon's Layered Bats Stencils. I stamped the pumpkins with Simon's Intense Black ink onto smooth white card stock, then stamped them onto masking paper, trimmed it out and masked off the top portion of the pumpkins.

I then applied one of the Moon masks, and ink blended Distress Oxide Inks over the background to create the eerie sky. The Moon mask was removed and the coordinating stencil was used with Pumice Stone Distress Oxide ink. I then used the Layered Bats Stencils over it with Black Soot Distress Ink.

I removed the mask and colored in the pumpkins with Copic markers. I made sure the panel was completely dry and white heat embossed a sentiment from the Triple Trouble set. Of course I added a TON of splatter to the panel as well lol!

On the inside of the card I stamped the pumpkins onto a panel of white card stock using Crackling Campfire, Carved Pumpkin and Ground Espresso Distress Oxide inks. I then stamped one of the sentiments from the Triple Trouble set and that was it!

Oh My Gourd Cards + A Flat Shaker

Hey friends! I'm part of a blog hop today sharing inspiration using the new products from Simon Says Stamp's Peace on Earth Release!

If you missed my Release & Review video going over the entire release you can find that here:

SSS Peace On Earth Release & Review! | October 2021

AND I have a code to share with y'all as part of this hop!

Shop at Simon Says Stamp <------click! and get a Lucky Pawsitively Everything Tool FREE with a purchase of $25 or more using the code LUCKYU

OK on to my cards:

I created 2 cards using the new Pumpkins stencil and rather "non-traditional" colors. I was inspired by the new Autumn Sky Sequins pack so I pulled out several Distress Oxide Inks in colors that matched the sequins.

For one card I created a flat edge-to-edge shaker card using some saved packaging and filled it with the Autumn Sky Sequins.

The second card I kept more "simple" and just cut down the stencilled panel and matted it with white card stock.

On both cards I used the new Oh My Gourd wafer die that I topped with Simon's new Matte Gold Mirror card stock.

I used the Pumpkins Stencil on the inside of the card with the same Distress Oxide inks. The sentiments are from the Let the Gourd Times Roll stamp set, and I paired the cards with some of Simon's Mint envelopes and that was it!

OK on to today's cards:

I used several Tim Holtz Stamper's Anonymous sets for these - specifically Rest In Peace, Moth Study, Bold Frights and Snarky Cat Halloween.

I stamped the skull from the Rest In Peace set with Distress Black Soot Archival ink, blended some Distress Inks over it and then trimmed it out with scissors. I stamped the background with the same ink using some of the sentiment stamps from the Rest In Peace set.

I stamped a bunch of the moth images from the Moth Study set with the Black Soot Distress Archival ink and blended a rainbow of Distress Inks over them. I then added Tonic's Aqua Shimmer Glitter Gloss over them - in the video I show just how sparkly they are 😉.

The sentiment is from the Snarky Cat Halloween set and I white heat embossed it onto black card stock.

On the inside of the cards I stamped the skull from the Rest In Peace set with Simon's Fog ink, then stamped a sentiment from the Bold Frights set with Simon's Smoke ink and that was it!

Sunflower Halloween Card | AmyR Halloween 2021 Series #14

Hello friends!! It's the end of STAMPtember® - but not the end of new things (and not the end of me posting new videos lol). Simon just released a bunch of new colors of the PET Pawsitively Everything Tool:

You can check out all the new colors (plus the original color it came in) plus the bundle HERE <-------click!

I love my PET tools. I was sent one when they were first released, bought a couple more and now I definitely need to get all these colors b/c they are SO handy. I use them as a coaster, to rest my heat tools on, to keep ink pads from sliding around etc etc. I want to get more so I can keep one by my sink to use when I'm cleaning my brushes and to have extras for ink pads and coasters lol!

AND - Simon just released this HUGE Halloween kit:

You can check out the Limited Edition Mixed Media Halloween 2021 Craft Kit HERE <----click! while supplies last!

Anywho - on to my card and video!

For today's card I decided to go with a fave floral set and make something that could be for any occasion - all you'd need to change up is the sentiments used:

I stamped Simon's Sunflower Garden image onto Strathmore Watercolor Paper using Versafine Clair Nocturne ink and then clear heat embossed it. I then used my Karin Brushmarker Pro's and a water brush to watercolor the image and the background.

I added a TON of splatter (of course) using Perfect Pearl Powder, White Gouache and Black Soot Distress Paint.

On the inside of the card I stamped the Sunflower Garden with Simon's Fog ink, then added sentiments from the Spooky Salutations Sentiment Strips pack. I used the same pack for the sentiments on the front of the card and just colored the strips with Copic markers. 

I then paired the card with one of Simon's Orange Peel envelopes and that was it!

OK on to the card:

This is a 5x7" card.

I had SO much fun making this card lol. I used Simon Says Stamp's Giant Hugs Card Wrap Wafer Die set and instead of making the hugging hands I turned them into zombie hands lol.

I used Distress Oxide Sprays and Distress Oxide Inks and Distress Paints to get all the colors and splatter and texture. I used the CZ Design Love Your Guts wafer die (lol how perfect was that for this card) as my main sentiment and the Reverse Spooky salutations for the companion sentiment that I colored in with a Copic marker.

I kept the inside simple and just added a couple more sentiment strips from the Reverse Spooky Salutations pack and that was it!
