Patterned Paper Stamping – More Monthly Card Kit Inspiration with Kristina Werner!
Hello, all! Kristina here with some more inspiration using the June 2018 Card Kit! The patterned papers from Moda Scrap in the kit are gorgeous, right? I thought it would be fun to use the Beautiful Flowers stamp set from the kit with the papers specifically.
NOTE: The card kit itself is currently sold out, but you can buy the main elements of this card separately: the Beautiful Flowers stamp set and Moda Scrap Fly & Scrap patterned papers.
I stamped the large floral stamp directly onto one of the papers, and then stamped the individual flower stamps on a different piece of patterned paper. This gave me the opportunity to have the flowers be different colors!
I cut each flower out and then lightly shaded them using markers from Tombow’s Pastel set of Dual Brush Pens. The markers in this set of markers were perfect for the colors included in the patterned paper! I also scribbled the green and yellow shades of markers onto a slick surface and picked up the colors with the N00 markers (clear marker in the set) to shade the leaves on the larger stamped image.
The greeting was stamped using VersaMark ink and then coated with Gilded embossing powder from Brutus Monroe. I assembled the paper piecing by adhering the flowers using foam squares.
I hope you enjoy the video today! Thanks for stopping by! You can subscribe to future card kits HERE.

Altenew May 2018 Stamp/Die Release Blog Hop
Welcome everyone!! Today we are celebration the Altenew May stamp and die release. If you’re coming from Virginia Lu’s blog, then you’re in the right place!
I’ve selected the Garden Silhouette and Rustic Linen stamps to work with for my cards. I’ve used Tim Holtz Distress Markers on the flowers to get a watercolor effect.
By using the markers, I was able to add small amounts of color to the blossom portions of the stamps. I’ve created a simple background for my tags by stamping the Rustic Linen stamp in white onto Desert Storm cardstock.
I used the vase from the Garden Silhouette stamp set with one single flower. My card is mini size where I’ve folded over a 4.25″x5.5″ panel.
I started with yellow tones of markers in the center of the flower and worked my way out with oranges and pink.
I’ve filmed a video of how I colored these flowers which you can view below or on our YouTube channel HERE.
There is an amazing line up of designers participating in this hop, I’ve included the complete list below.
Thanks so much for stopping by the Simon Says Stamp blog, your next stop on the hop is to Lilith Eeckels.
Enjoy!!

Hello creative friends, it’s Nina-Marie here with you today and I am thrilled to be back with a brand new, Studio Monday video!
This week I am featuring our playful Favorite Puperoni birthday stamp set, and two ways to make gift card holders! Many of you probably received this Favorite Puperoni set last year when it was our birthday gift to you, but now it is available for individual purchase!
One of the gift card holders I made utilizes the cute, Petal Envelope die! Look how sweet this perfectly-sized, gift card envelope looks decorated with the images and sentiments from Favorite Puperoni!
And have you tried out our Prettied Up Gift Card die set? This set can be used in so many different ways, making it a versatile gift card packaging option. I used all the components of the die set in my other gift card holder that I created today!
I hope you will watch the video below to see how I created both of these fun, birthday gift card holders! Thanks so much for stopping by; I will see you next week with brand new inspiration to share!
