Not a Card with Nina-Marie: Flower Box
Hello there, friends! It’s Nina-Marie here with you sharing a DIY flower box project that is perfect for spring decor! With the warmer weather slowly returning, I’ve been very inspired by florals! Tim Holtz’s newest Idea-ology collection has some great pieces that fit really well with my design idea!
I adhered Tim Holtz’s Test Tubes inside the vignette which holds the flowers. To attach the test tubes I used screw eyes from Tim Holtz’s hardware set.
I added buttons and Idea-ology Bubbles along the bottom for a colorful effect. The outside edges of the vignette are covered with rub ons from Prima that add beautiful patterns and colors. I also added leaf gems on the outside of the vignette along with Transparent Butterflies.
I die cut a message from patterned paper that was inspired by the rub ons to spell out “bee-you-tiful”; then I adhered a Entomology Adornment on top that I colored with Foundry Wax!
To learn even more about this vignette project, be sure to watch the video below for all the details!

So Many Sweet Birds! How to Assemble the Sweet Birds Set
Hello friends, it’s Nina-Marie Trapani here with you today! I am sharing a video showing how to use our Simon exclusive Sweet Birds stamp and die set to make darling feathered friends for your cards!
The Sweet Birds set is a building stamp set, which is different than a traditional layering stamp set. Instead of layering, the stamps puzzle-piece together to build the image; this allows you to get creative with the color choices you use because you don’t have to layer the colors.
For the stamping of these birds, I used our Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Saturated Ink. When I made cards from all of the birds, I used our Simon Says Stamp Birch Trees and Berries and Leaves stencils to make a background. I added sentiments from a couple of different stamp sets, including Beautiful Friend, Friend Greetings, XL Birthday Greetings, and XL Greetings 2.
We’ve also got a handy PDF download for you to print out and use as a color reference for your stamping!
