Crafty with Caly: Blooming Thoughts

Hi friends! Happy Tuesday! Please join me in welcoming back special guest Caly Person in our bi-monthly edition of Crafting with Caly blog series! Be sure to read on and watch the video for more details and enjoy!

Hi, Friends! It’s Caly and I’m sharing a floral birthday card using stamp-layering images from Ink to Paper. I’m combining two floral sets using Blooming Thoughts and Prominent Petals along with the Mix and Mat Confetti Dies for a feminine floral layout – but you can re-create this card with any color combination.
I used Simon Says Stamp inks for my card today – I really love the full rainbow range of their inks!
Prominent Petals: Rosie Cheeks, Teeny Bikini, Watermelon, Magnolia, Key Lime, Green Leaf
Blooming Thoughts: Pale Blush Pink, Sunkist, Rose Apple, Fern

The stamping is easy when you die-cut first. There are so many layers and details, so die-cutting first makes sure you stay inside the cut lines. If you don’t have a stick mat to use, you can also use some temporary adhesive to hold all your die-cuts in place on your stamp platform to keep things in place while stamping your images.

After stamping all of my images, I die-cut the scalloped panel from the Mix and Mat Confetti Dies. To give it some color, I used Teeny Bikini ink to blend around the edges with the Cheeky Simon Says Stamp Large Blending Brush.

I finished by arranging and adhering my stamped images and attaching sentiments stamped in Watermelon ink from the Perfect Pairs Commodities set from Ink to Paper.
I hope you enjoyed this project! Have a wonderful day!~Caly

Studio Monday with Nina-Marie: Masked Stenciling Featuring Picket Fence Studios

Hello everyone, it’s Nina-Marie Trapani here with you. Today I have a masked stenciling project to share, which features products from Picket Fence Studios! I’m using their Joyeux Noel stamp set, Winter Snowflakes dies, and Winter Forest Scenery stencil set together to make this snowy Christmas card.

Using the Winter Forest Scenery and our Simon exclusive Circle Masks stencil sets, I ink blended the scene that is my main focal point. The blending was done with Distress Ink colors from Tim Holtz, including Chipped Sapphire, Salvaged Patina, Bundled Sage, Peeled Paint, and Pine Needles.

I layered my ink blended scene onto a card base that was embossed with our Simon Says Stamp Filigree Snowflakes embossing folder. I embellished the card further by adhering a few of the Winter Snowflakes (cut from white cardstock) in and around the scene.

Want to see how I created this card? Be sure to watch the video below for ALL the details!
