Die Stenciling with Yana Smakula
Hi friends! Happy Monday! Please join me in welcoming back the fantastic Yana Smakula to our blog as a guest today! She has used three of our exclusive dies (Balloon Bouquet, Floret Frame, & Bird of Roses) as stencils or masks to be the focal point of her trio of cards! You really could use any of your favorite die cut outs for this technique! I’m really loving her Doll Pink and Duckling color combination! It’s so fresh and springy!
Be sure to watch the video, and enjoy!

Unicorns & Rainbows!
Hi everybody! Wanda here! Hope your weekend is going great. I have a super fun and happy card to share today; made with the adorable Unicorns and Rainbows stamp set from Mama Elephant. EEEP! Unicorns and Rainbows are everywhere – they are trending and so hot right now. Who doesn’t love a unicorn? They remind me of the fun toys of my younger days and just generally make me smile.
I colored up the cute unicorns and then die cut pretty, puffy clouds and a colorful rainbow. What a scene! I used my Copic Markers to match my cardstock and had loads of fun coloring rainbow unicorn hair!
I chose pink instead of red for my top rainbow color, because, well….because it’s so fresh! I stamped the two unicorn images in the Simon Says Stamp Intense Black Ink and die cut them out with the matching dies. The Clouds dies cut like a dream. I cut two pieces and layered the top one with foam tape.
This sentiment is the best! Here you can see my cardstock layers and how I tucked the rainbow into the cloud layers.
It’s hard to photograph, but the unicorn wings, the star, and the horns were all coated with a layer of clear glitter Wink of Stella pen for a touch of shimmer.
Here are my Copic choices for today’s card.
I added a few clear gems at the end for a bit more sparkle. The unicorns and rainbow are mounted onto the card with foam squares.
What is your favorite crafting trend right now? I am DEFINITELY on the unicorn bandwagon! Tell me what you’re loving right now! Have a happy, sunshiney, unicorn day friends. Thank you for stopping by the Simon Says Stamp blog. We appreciate you! Supply links are below, and remember that Copic Markers are 25% off right now – until April 1st. Use the code: COPIC.
