Hello Crafty friends, We’re celebrating the Simon Says Stamp -Happy Camper Release with a fun blog hop and giveaways!
I love die-cutting, so I’m excited to share a couple of card ideas using some of the gorgeous new products I received from the release.
Starting with the new mini ink cube colours in rich reds and earthy browns, floral die-cuts and basic die-cut label shapes to create compositions that are full of detail, yet still easy and fun to make.
Oh! I also tried Shimmer Vellum (see the dragonfly wings), detail blending brushes by Spellbinders. I also mentioned how much I like the new Pawsitively Glue by Simon Says Stamps
Video
I hope the video below gives you a glimpse into the cardmaking process and the magic of the new products!
Floral Dragonfly Card
This C6/A2 card features a soft embossed background with the new Blossom Bursts Embossing Folder, layered florals from the Fantasy Bouquet die set, and a topper made using the Bright Dragonfly Wafer Dies and Modern Teardrops dies.
Finished with red tones from Pawsitively Saturated Ink Cubes and a sparkle from the Peppermint Mix Gems. The sentiment is from the Thank You Basics stamp set—simple and classic!
The dragonfly wings also feature stunning Simon Says Stamp Shimmer Vellum ( new favourite for this type of die-cuts)
Card Recipe
- Fog cardstock – for the background
- Neenah 110lb cardstock– for the topper and die cuts
- Gold mirror cardstock and Simon Says Stamp Shimmer Vellum
- Modern Teardrops Wafer Dies ( label topper)
- Fantasy Bouquet Wafer Dies ( floral and leaves)
- Bright Dragonfly Wafer Dies ( dragongly)
- Blossom Bursts Embossing Folder ( background)
- CZ Design Clear Stamps Thank You Basics ( stamped sentiment)
- Pawsitively Dazzling Gems Peppermint Mix
- Pawsitively Saturated Ink Cubes, Reds and Browns Inks.
Bonus Card
This C6/ A2 card was actually the first one I made while experimenting with the new products.
I wanted to explore the new mini ink cube colours and provide you with a visual idea of how they look when blended.
It’s also important to me to show you layering options, apertures, transparencies, textures and backgrounds.
When using new products, it’s always a bit of an experiment… I’ve often caught myself thinking I should’ve stopped earlier and left the card clean and simple, but then it is in that ongoing exploration that we truly discover what’s possible.
The truth is the Sky’s the limit, and you can shape, cut, or colour the paper in any way your imagination leads you.
Card Recipe
- Neenah 110lb cardstock– for the topper and die cuts
- Coral Cardstock – Background panel
- Modern Teardrops Wafer Dies – Die-cut aperture

- Pawsitively Dazzling Gems Peppermint Mix
- Pawsitively Saturated Ink Cubes, Reds and Browns Inks.

![#holidays are almost over -sorry #travellovers, but here are some cards just for you.
Let’s keep the fun going in our craft rooms all year round!
[ ✨I made these cards for an Instagram Hop + Giveaways on the previous post so have a look!!!]
In this reel, I’m playing with the Mini Delight: Enjoy the Flight stamp and die set — tiny price, HUGE creative potential!
It’s sold out at Altenew but still available at @simonsaysstamp.
I used just the die-cut plane and sentiments from the stamp set but the stamps also includes an image that will allow you to create a sun, a moon, or even the word ! 💛
•Craft tip: mind the tape. I used low-tack tape, but the paper was super delicate and tore a little. Nothing I couldn’t cover 🙈🤪
