Throwback Thursday – Fabulous Projects You Might Have Missed!
Welcome to another edition of Throwback Thursday — a trip back in time! For each throwback, we’ll be spotlighting fantastic cards and projects using products from previous releases. The new stuff is always SO fun, but think about all of those great products you’ve collected and set aside. They are STILL AWESOME! And we want to inspire you with fantastic inspiration from our creative archives.
We hope you are having a MAGNIFICENT summer! Our Good Vibes release includes lots of wonderful products to celebrate summer, but you might remember some pretty spectacular products from last year’s One of a Kind collection. In celebration, let’s take a look at some glorious cards created with goodies from our One of a Kind release!
First up this project from Amy Rysavy:
Amy embodies the deliciousness of summer with this happy card featuring the Artsy Fruits stamp set from our One of a Kind release. You can see Amy’s original post HERE. And if you want to see how she created this card, she’s got a fun video that you can watch HERE.
Next, let’s throw it back to this colorful card from Jennifer McGuire:
This vibrant all die cut card from Jennifer features two dies from the One of a Kind release: Heart Sprinkle Trail and Script Thanks. In her original blog post which you can see HERE, Jennifer created four fantastic cards from this release, and of course, there’s a wonderful video that you can see HERE.
And let’s not forget this beautiful project from Kristina Pokazanieva:
The Bouquet of Thanks stamp set from the One of a Kind release is a showstopper, and Kristina makes it SHINE on her gorgeous card. She paired the newer Center Cut Burst Background stamp with the set on this stunning design. Visit Kristina’s original post HERE.
Our last throwback project takes us way, way back to our Pure Sunshine release in 2014 with this cutie from Nichol Spohr:
Cute flowers just NEVER go out of style, and even though the Pure Sunshine release is four years old, the Scribble Flowers stamp set is still available in our store! You can check Nichol’s original blog post HERE. And there’s even a how-to video that you can see HERE!
Did you know that we have inspiration galleries on our website showcasing project ideas for all of our releases and card kits? It’s a veritable treasure-trove of terrific ideas just waiting to inspire you, and you are invited to share your projects, too! You can find all of the Simon release galleries HERE and galleries for our monthly card kits can be found HERE. Scroll through today, and maybe you’ll find one of YOUR projects linked there!
Thanks for throwing it back with us and checking out these cool projects from four talented ladies!

Work It Wednesday June 2018: The Great Outdoors!
Happy Wednesday, friends! Welcome to Work It Wednesday for June 2018!
In case you’re wondering what ‘Work It Wednesday’ is, let me explain: On the third Wednesday of every month (or towards the end of the month ?), we want to see what you’re creating! The Simon Says Stamp community is so very talented, and we want to see more of your cards and projects every month.
We thought this would be a great way for all of you to ‘stretch your creative muscles’ and share what you’ve been working on. So we’ll give you a little challenge each month, and you’ll have until the following month to share what you’ve made. Please limit entries to 3 per month.
Each month we’ll pick a few random participants to win a Simon Says Stamp grab bag! YAY!
The projects and cards that were shared for May were SO AWESOME! Do you want to see all of the cards and projects that were shared for last month’s Work it Wednesday? Check them out; there is loads of summertime inspiration!
The following three participants from May’s Work It Wednesday were randomly chosen to win a goody bag from Simon Says Stamp:
CONGRATS TO OUR WINNERS! Please email [email protected] with your mailing address and she’ll get your prize sent out to you.
We were thoroughly inspired by EVERYONES creative ideas, and we look forward to seeing what you make for THIS month’s challenge!
Did you know that June is National Great Outdoors month?? Whether you are a beach-goer, love the solitude of camping in the woods, or hiking in the mountains, we want to see how the GREAT OUTDOORS inspire you! Once you’re done making your outdoor-inspired projects, make sure you link your creations below! Please remember to limit entries to 3 per month.
What are you waiting for crafters? WORK IT!
