Happy weekend everyone! As it's still STAMPtember (is it just me or did the month just FLY by and yet it feels crazy that it's STILL September?) don't forget there are still new Limited Edition releases!! You can check out what's new/what's still available here:
Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Limited Edition Releases!
After I posted these cards using one of the collab sets I thought how cool it would be to use Simon's Wildflowers stamp set for this week's Color Throwdown Challenge:
You can check out what the rest of the team made HERE with these colors <-----click! and there's still time to play along if you'd like!
Here's what I made:
I stamped the images from the Wildflowers stamp set onto Bristol Smooth card stock with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink then heat embossed them with Simon's Clear Detail embossing powder.
It was SUPER easy to create the backgrounds - I sponged on Distress Oxide inks in Blueprint Sketch, Weathered Wood and Tumbled Glass. Then I splattered water and Perfect Pearl Powder mixed with water and let that all dry.
Simon's Big Friend and Thinking of You wafer dies were used for the sentiments - stacked with layers of black card stock and topped with Nuvo Cobalt Velour Satin Mirror card 😍💙😍 (SERIOUSLY - it's SO gorgeous 💙💙💙💙💙). I added a bunch of Studio Katia crystals for bling to really finish everything off.
I inked up the Wildflowers stamps with those same Distress Oxide inks, and then added sentiments from the Say It All Friend stamp set and that was it!
