Serenity: Color Coordinates with Shari Carroll

color-coordinates-2017

Ocean breeze… walks on the beach.. day in the spa… this is Serenity! I’d like my house painted in all of these colors, they are so peaceful!! I’ve picked out colors that are all muted in nature, some slightly darker, some lighter. I’ve included three NEW colors Seafoam, Dusty Sage and Winter Sky. Aren’t they amazing?

Even though there are blue and greens, this combination is gender neutral. I’ve created my card using the Dina Wakeley Circle Patterns stamps because they went so well with my beachy theme and show off the ink colors. The die cut Wildflowers are what make this a feminine card. I would make a card like this in batches and add messages later for events or occasions.

I’ve filmed a video with the process to create this card. You can view it below or on our YouTube channel HERE.

Stitched Cacti Hugs – Adding Depth to Images

Hi friends! Happy Wednesday!! Please welcome special guest Channin Pelletier on our blog today representing the awesome folks at Waffle Flower Crafts!

Adding Depth to Waffle Flower Stitched Cacti

Hello everyone! It’s Channin here and I am extremely excited to be here with you all at the Simon Says Stamp blog sharing a card I made with Waffle Flower Crafts’ newest products!

In this spring release, Waffle Flower has four cross-stitch inspired layering stamp sets that are seriously the bees knees! I have been having so so much fun playing with these stamp sets, they are just so fun to create with!

In my video I showcase my personal favorite out of all the cross-stitched sets, the Stitched Cacti Stamp Set. I will also feature the gorgeous new Patched Layers Die set as well! These dies are so cool because they add a beautiful blanket stitched border to your card panels which works perfectly with the new stitched stamp sets!

WATCH THE VIDEO:


I will also demonstrate an amazing trick I learned that will help you to position your layering stamps perfectly and I will also demonstrate how I add depth to the stitched images with shading!
