Simon Says Stamp – Holiday Handmade Release

Categories – , ,

Hello Crafty Friends! Simon has a new release called Holiday Handmade and I was able to play with the new Pine Bouquet Embossing Folder!

Here is a list of supplies used to create this card…

I started by cutting down a piece of Distress Water Color Paper to an A2 size. I spritzed it with water to ensure a nice embossed image and ran in through my Simon Says Stamp – Pine Bouquet Embossing Folder. I find that when I spritz the water color cardstock is embosses much better.

Once I had the image embossed, I went to town spraying it with distress oxide sprays. I have the best results for these unique colors by spraying the paper with water BEFORE I start spraying with the Oxide sprays. When I had the the right amount of color added I set the panel to the side to dry.

I went a head and cut the Simon Says Stamp – You Matter Die out of Neenah Solar White 80 lb Card stock and Tonic Mirror Gold Cardstock for the shadow die. I glued them together using Gina K Connect Glue. I pupped it up using Simon Says Stamp – Big Momma foam Tape.

When the panel had dried, I grabbed my Hero Arts Unicorn White Pigment Ink and a foam blender, and VERY gently, used it to buff the white ink onto the high areas of the panel. I wanted to highlight the embossed areas to ensure that they popped against this blue/green background.

I went a head and assembled the card and finished it with some white jewels! Viola!
