Easy Watercolor Slimline Card | SSS Freestyle Flowers

Hello everyone!!

It has been a heckuva September! This is my 32nd video this month lol. I don't think I'll be able to keep up a pace quite like this however stay tuned as I still have a lot of Halloween (and Christmas! And fall and just whatever-themed) videos coming!

This card was made using the sold-out STAMPtember kit. I only used elements that are still available so no worries there:

I stamped the cluster of flowers image from the Freestyle Flowers stamp set with Versafine Clair Nocturne ink onto Ranger watercolor paper. I used a Memento Tuxedo Black marker to extend the stems, stamped some of the individual leaves and then heat embossed all of it with clear embossing powder. 

I used Daniel Smith watercolors to do some quick and easy colouring of the background, and white heat embossed a sentiment from the Freestyle Flowers set onto black card stock and die cut with a circle wafer die. I OF COURSE added some bling using Studio Katia Iridescent Tiny Bubbles and Iridescent Butterflies.

I finished off the inside of the card by stamping the flowers with Simon's Cobblestone ink, and added another sentiment from the Freestyle Flowers set. I stamped the flowers onto a Dandelion slimline envelope with Lemon Zing ink and that was it!

Art Impressions Cool Friends | STAMPtember Exclusive Limited Edition

And here it is - the final collab set for STAMPtember. Stay tuned b/c the month isn't over yet so there may be something else up Heidi's sleeve. Later on today there's to be a Facebook live video on the Simon Says Stamp Facebook page so we shall see what happens!

Anywho - this final collab is with Art Impressions!

You can check out the Limited Edition Cool Friends stamp set HERE. As with all the limited edition exclusive sets this is while supplies last and once it sells out it's gone!

Here's what I made:

This is a 3.5 x 8.5" slimline card.

I stamped the image from the Cool Friends stamp set onto Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80lb card stock with Simon's Intense Black ink and coloured them in with Copic Markers. I fussy cut out the image before adhering it to the card front.

The background was die cut with one of the Slimline Nested Rectangles wafer dies using Neenah Desert Storm card stock, then I stamped and white heat embossed the snowflakes from the Cool Friends set. 

I ink blended Broken China and Chipped Sapphire Distress Oxide inks over the background. After adhering the main image I added extra "snow" using the Spellbinders Snow Queen paint pens. I also added a scalloped frame using one of the dies from the Slimline Scallop Frame die set.

I stamped the image again onto the inside of the card using Simon's Cobblestone ink. I white heat embossed sentiments from the Cool Friends set onto black card stock, and paired the card with a Slimline Schoolhouse Red envelope and that was it!

You can check out the Limited Edition Bounty of Wreaths stamp set HERE or the Limited Edition Bounty of Wreaths stamp set and coordinating wafer dies HERE. As with all the limited edition exclusive sets these are only while supplies last and when they sell out they're gone!

I of course went with the Halloween wreath from the set for my card:

I stamped the wreath onto Neenah Classic Crest 80lb Solar White card stock with Simon's Intense Black ink and coloured it in with Copic Markers.

I added Clear Glitter Gloss Aqua Shimmer to the wreath (you can see it better in the video) and a bunch of Studio Katia Crystals (colors used are listed below in the supplies).

I stamped the inside of the card and the envelope with the wreath and added another sentiment from the Bounty of Wreaths set and that was it!

The Greeting Farm Got Cake? | STAMPtember Exclusive Limited Edition

Hey everyone! Another STAMPtember exclusive was just released:

Today's Limited Edition collab is with The Greeting Farm!

You can check out the Limited Edition Got Cake? stamp set HERE or the Limited Edition Got Cake? stamp set with coordinating wafer dies HERE. As with all the exclusive limited edition collabs these are only while supplies last and when they sell out they're gone!

As of me typing this there are still some of the STAMPtember 2020 card kits, the Tim Holtz STAMPtember 2020 set and the Whimsy Stamps Happy Pugmas sets still available!

OK on to my cards:

I used Simon's Radiant Hearts stencil with Distress inks (all colors used are listed in the supplies below) and then topped it off with Stickles Nebula Glitter Gel.

I stamped the images from the Got Cake? stamp set onto Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80lb card stock with Simon's Intense Black ink. I coloured them in with Copic Markers and added white gel pen highlights.

I white heat embossed the sentiments from the stamp set and fussy cut them out and adhered them and the characters with Simon's Big Momma Foam tape.

On both the outside and inside of the cards I used sentiments from the Birthdays Sentiments Strips pack - I trimmed them down and coloured them with Copics before adhering them. I added the little cake and the sentiment from the Got Cake? set to the insides of the cards and that finished them off!

Tim Holtz STAMPtember 2020 | STAMPtember Exclusive Limited Edition

That's right!! The Tim Holtz STAMPtember Limited Edition exclusive set <------click! just went live!! This is one of the most in-demand sets for STAMPtember and his set ALWAYS sells out super quickly!! You can check it out HERE!

Before I get to my cards using this set don't forget to check out the Limited Edition STAMPtember 2020 card kit that was released yesterday (and there's still some in stock!):

You can check out the kit HERE <-------click! while supplies last! This is a Limited Edition (bigger) kit that isn't part of the monthly subscription - and it's going to sell out quickly IMO!

ALSO - if you weren't aware - Tim will be doing a LIVE video on his Facebook page a little later today:

You can get to his Facebook page HERE <------click! and tune in at 1pm ET for his video! He'll be showing the set along with a bunch of inspiration made using it (I sent my cards in for this so they should be featured in there too!) from several talented designers. ALWAYS worth tuning in to Tim's videos - the amount of inspiration alone is fabulous.

OK on to my cards:

These are 3.5 x 8.5" slimline cards.

I made 4 slimline cards using Tim's STAMPtember 2020 set - the crazy cats and sentiments cracked me up so much I needed to use ALL of them.

I stamped the cats from the STAMPtember 2020 set onto Distress Watercolor paper with Ranger's Archival Jet Black ink. I watercolored all of them with Distress Inks (all the colors used are listed and linked in the supplies below) and the card with the cat tangled in the Christmas lights I coloured the lights in with Copic Markers.

I used one of the stencil's from Tim's Mini Stencil 18 set for this card. I mixed Wendy Vecchi embossing paste with Tumbled Glass Distress ink to tint it blue before applying it to the background.

The scallop frames on 2 of the cards were die cut from Tim's Idea-ology Metallic Jewels Kraft card stock using Simon's Slimline Scallop Frame wafer dies.

On all the cards I added some sparkle using my Tonic Aqua Shimmer Clear Glitter Gloss pen. I also added Glossy Accents to all the cat's eyes and to the light bulbs on the first card.

I finished off the insides of all the cards by stamping the cats used for each card with the Archival Jet Black ink. All the sentiments from the STAMPtember 2020 set were white heat embossed onto black card stock using Ranger's Super Fine Detail White embossing powder and trimmed out with scissors. I adhered the "Meowy Christmas" to the insides and that was it!

Distress Oxide Watercolor Over Glimmer Hot Foil Cards | Spellbinders Autumn Leaf Border

Hello everyone! Hope y'all are planning on having a great weekend! Stay tuned as there are still more STAMPtember releases (that I will have posts and videos for!) over the next few days!

For today's cards I pulled out my Glimmer Hot Foil machine. I've done a few posts using Glimmer Hot Foil and the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil Plates - you can find those posts here:

Easy Hot Glimmer Foil Slimline Card | Spellbinders Framed Details Glimmer Hot Foil Plate

Die Cut & Glimmer Hot Foil Christmas Cards | AmyR 2019 Christmas Series #4

Glimmering Foil Butterflies Cards | Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil System

Making a Christmas Cabinet Card | Spellbinders Becca Feeken Holiday 2019 Release

Die Cut & Glimmer Hot Foil Christmas Cards | Spellbinders 2019 Holiday

So for today's cards I wanted to combine Glimmer Hot Foil with watercolor - and it worked out perfectly!

Card on the left is a 3.5 x 8.5" slimline card and the card on the right is A2 sized.

I used Spellbinders Autumn Leaf Border GHF plate and Stylish Script Thankful GHF plate along with the Polished Brass foil from this 4 pack. I foiled the leaves and sentiments onto Arches Hot Press watercolor paper and then watercolored over them with Distress Oxide inks.

I added splatter (of course) and bling (all the colors and also types of bling are listed in the supplies below).

On the outside and inside of the cards I used sentiments from the CZ Design 30 Days of Thankful set. I stamped leaves from that set onto the insides using the same Distress Oxide inks that I used for the watercoloring, and that was it!

Limited Edition STAMPtember 2020 Card Kit

Hey everyone! I'll have a post and video coming later today using unrelated products but I wanted to hop on here to show y'all the Limited Edition STAMPtember 2020 Card Kit that was just released:

You can check out the kit HERE <-------click! while supplies last! This is a Limited Edition (bigger) kit that isn't part of the monthly subscription - and it's going to sell out quickly IMO!

Slimline Sympathy Card | SSS Beautiful Flowers Take 14

Hey everyone!! FYI IF you see this in time it's worth checking out Simon's STAMPtember Limited Edition mixed media Creepy Halloween Kit! <-------click! This one will sell out FAST I'm guessing!

OK on to my post:

This week's Color Throwdown Challenge is a good one! You can check out what the rest of the team created with these colors HERE <------click! and play along too if you'd like!

Here's what I made:

This is a 3.5 x 8.5" slimline card.

I used my all-time favorite stamp set yet again - Simon's Beautiful Flowers. I just love it. I heat embossed the big floral stamp onto Arches Hot Press watercolor paper with Simon's Antique Gold embossing powder. I then watercolored it all in with Distress Oxide inks.

I used Simon's Sympathy Greetings Mix stamp set for the sentiments, heat embossing one onto Cream Off White card stock and adding another to the watercolor panel.

On the inside of the card and the envelope I stamped the same large floral from the Beautiful Flowers set using a couple of the same Distress Oxide inks I used to watercolor the card front. I added a couple more sentiments from the Sympathy Greetings Mix using the Oxide inks and that was it!

CZ Design Batty For You Easy Halloween Card | AmyR Halloween 2020 Series #7

Hello everyone!! I don't have a card and video for the newest STAMPtember set (which you can check out HERE <-----click!) as it didn't arrive in time. That said I do have a card and video for my Halloween series!

In case you missed any of the previous posts and videos for my Halloween series thus far you can find them all at the links below:

SSS Happy Haunting Slimline Card | AmyR Halloween 2020 Series #6

Mama Elephant Little Ghosts & Mummies | AmyR Halloween 2020 Series #5

Easy Die-Cut Spooky Cards | AmyR Halloween 2020 Series #3

Halloween Card Using NON-Halloween Background | AmyR Halloween 2020 Series #2

Glow in the Dark Wobble Cards | AmyR Halloween 2020 Series #1

For today's card I kept it simple (and spooky):

I heat embossed Simon's Spider Web Background onto black card stock with Hero Arts White Satin Pearl embossing powder. I LOVE the metallic silvery look it gives on black!

I combined the Spooky wafer die and the Reverse Halloween Sentiment strips to make my sentiment, and then die cut some black glitter card stock with the CZ Design Batty wafer dies. I also used some of my Halloween Fun sequins and just adhered several into place with tiny dots of Craft Tacky glue.

I finished off the inside of the card with another die cut bat and another sentiment from the Reverse Halloween Sentiment Strips pack and that was it!

Whimsy Stamps Happy Pugmas | STAMPtember Exclusive Limited Edition

Hello everyone! Today's STAMPtember collab is with Whimsy Stamps!

You can check out the Limited Edition Happy Pugmas stamp set HERE or the Limited Edition Happy Pugmas stamp set with coordinating wafer dies HERE. As with all the Limited Edition exclusive collabs these are only while supplies last and once they sell out they're gone!

Here's what I made with the set:

This is a 3.5 x 8.5" slimline card.

I stamped the images from the Happy Pugmas set onto Neenah Classic Crest 80lb card stock with Simon's Intense Black ink and coloured them all in with Copic Markers.

I used the Mama Elephant Slim Card Basics wafer die set for all my die cutting on this card. I die cut the windows and blended several colors of Distress inks into them. I then added the derpy pugs into the openings and a sentiment from the Happy Pugmas set.

I finished off the inside of the card with another pug and sentiment from the Happy Pugmas set. I made an envelope from some Doodlebug patterned paper using the Trinity Stamps Slimline Envelope Builder wafer die set to tie it all together and that was it!

Newton's Nook Pocket Full of Happy | STAMPtember Exclusive Limited Edition

Hello everyone! Today's STAMPtember exclusive is with Newton's Nook!

You can check out the Limited Edition Pocket Full of Happy stamp set HERE and the Limited Edition Pocket Full of Happy stamp set and coordinating dies HERE. As with all the Limited Edition exclusive sets these are only available while supplies last and when they sell out they're gone!

Here's what I made with this set:

These are 3 x 6" cards.

I created "mini slimline" cards - I thought this smaller size would be fun to feature a couple of the images from the Pocket Full of Happiness set on.

I did an ooolllldddd technique on the pockets of these critters. After stamping them with Simon's Intense Black ink onto Neenah 110lb Classic Crest Solar White card stock I coloured in the pockets with Copic Markers. I then took my Colorless Blender Refill and put some onto a scrap of denim fabric, and pressed that onto the images - resulting in the pattern you see here! It's a fun and super easy technique to play with - and different types of fabric give totally different results.

Anywho, I then coloured in the rest of the images, and also coloured in the outline pocket word as well.

I finished off the insides of the cards with a sentiment and the paw print from the Pocket Full of Happiness set. The envelopes and other wafer dies I used on these cards were all from the Trinity Stamps Narrow Card and Envelope wafer die set. I show how to assemble the envelope in the video!

Hello friends! It's Saturday and there's TWO STAMPtember exclusive releases today! So I have two cards and two videos to share.

The first collab is with Hero Arts! You can check out their Limited Edition Park Scene stamp set HERE <-------click!

And here's what I created with it:

I created a scene with the images in the Park Scene stamp set and stamped them with Simon's Intense Black ink onto Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80lb card stock. I coloured it all in with Copic Markers and then cut out the scene with one of Simon's Nested Circle wafer dies.

I stamped sentiments from the Park Scene stamp set onto the inside of the card and added the bench and grass and coloured in the bench with Copics and that was it!

To see how this card came together check out my video below:

Here's what I created with this set:

I stamped one of the characters from the Life Is An Adventure set onto Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80lb card stock with Simon's Intense Black ink and coloured it in with Copics.

I white heat embossed the stars from the set onto white card stock, then ink blended Distress Inks over it. I splattered the background with white liquid ink and used that as the background to the shaker element.

I finished off the inside of the card with another sentiment from the set, and stamped the stars with Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide ink and that was it!

SSS Happy Haunting Slimline Card | AmyR Halloween 2020 Series #6

Yay!! Another Halloween card and video!! If you missed any of the previous ones so far here's links to all the posts:

Mama Elephant Little Ghosts & Mummies | AmyR Halloween 2020 Series #5

The Boo Crew Slimline Cards | AmyR Halloween 2020 Series #4

Easy Die-Cut Spooky Cards | AmyR Halloween 2020 Series #3

Halloween Card Using NON-Halloween Background | AmyR Halloween 2020 Series #2

Glow in the Dark Wobble Cards | AmyR Halloween 2020 Series #1

So here's today's card:

This is a 3.5 x 8.5" slimline card.

I JUST got Simon's Limited Edition Halloween kit - the kit sold out within the first day it was released (SO fast - like wow), so I'm not going to do an unboxing etc. If you were one of the lucky ones to snag one you're going to have a ton of fun with it!

Almost everything that was in the kit is available individually so I'll have links to the stamp set and stencil I used along with everything else in the supplies below! I LOVE this Happy Haunting stamp set - that bus!!!

I stamped the bus from the Happy Haunting set onto Neenah Classic Crest Solar White 80lb card stock using Simon's Intense Black ink and coloured it in with Copic Markers. I fussy cut the image and covered the edges with my Memento Tuxedo Black marker.

The card front was die cut with the largest of Simon's Slimline Marquee wafer dies, and then I blended on several distress inks. I created a mask with Simon's masking paper and then blended the inks over the masks. I was inspired by one of the patterned papers that came in the kit - from this LDRS Haunted Halloween paper pack. I used that inspiration for the colors of the bus and for the background as well.

I stencilled GinaK Glitz Glitter gel over the Random Dots and Stars stencil (just the star part) onto the background - and added some Neon Tangerine Crystals and Bat-tastic Sprinkles too lol.

On the inside of the card I heat embossed one of the sentiments from the Happy Haunting stamp set with Tiger Lily embossing powder (which I used on the front as well). I added a bunch more images from the set, and paired the card with one of Simon's Orange Peel Slimline Envelopes and that was it!
