Simon Says: Anything Goes featuring: Kitchen Sink Stamps

Hello crafty friends it's Wednesday and that means it's time for a new Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge! 

This week Simon Says: Anything Goes and we are featuring Kitchen Sink Stamps products - it isn't a requirement to use them but if you have them we would love to see them!

Come join in on the fun, you have the chance of winning a $25 gift card to the fantastic Simon Says Stamp store!   

I started by stamping my Palm Tree layers using some Altenew cube inks. I then used masks to ink blend the beach, water and sky using Distress Inks (colors listed below)

I sprayed the beach with my Distress Sprayer for texture and added some gel pen detail once it was dry.

I haven't paper pieced in FOREVER! I took the Doodlebug pattern paper and some Tonic silver card stock from the Simon Says Stamp Rainbow card kit and stamped and cut my images.

I lined up my images on the card and then stamped my sentiment from the same Simon Says Stamp stamp set and the seagulls.

I added my elements using foam tape and to finish off a little more gel pen detail and some Sparkling Clear Sequins.

Whimsy Stamps Octopi Hugs!

Happy Tuesday crafty friends! I have had a huge crafty crush on Whimsy Stamps over the last few years, their critters are simply too much fun and this Octopi set is one of them! 

This card was such fun to put together! I die cut my scalloped circle first and used the insert to stamp my Octopus and colored her in with my Copic Markers. 

I then stamped and colored the remainder of my images and colored them in the same way.  I paired a HoneyBee hugs die with a mix of black, coral/pink and some white glitter paper, glued them together.

I lined up my die cut to stamp my Octopi sentiment and then secured the hugs die with foam tape.

To finish off, I added some pink iridescent sequins, glossy accents and white gel pen detail.

Thanks so much for taking the time. Products used are listed and linked below, affiliate links used at no extra cost to you!

This was a simple card to put together, I started by stamping my red border from the Avery Elle You Rock Stamp Set.  I was then able to position my Sunday and stamped it, then colored with my Copic Markers.

I added a few of the stamps from the same set around the sunday and embossed it with Ranger red glitter.  I stamped and embossed my secondary sentiments and die cut my hugs die and added them to my panel.

I added my panel to the card base and added some iridescent sequins and glossy accents to my main image with some white gel pen detail.

I have been wanting to ink this stamp up since its release! I LOVE this Lotl! I started with my images and colored them in with Copic Markers and used the accompanying dies.

I took a piece of my rainbow pattern paper and die cut it with both a Stitched Rectangle die and a circle die for my opening.

I ink blended the inner circle with water sun rays using some Distress Inks and put my elements on the card base. I then added my images to the inner circle.

I chose my favorite Simon Says Stamp Friend die set to pair with the Lotl sentiment from the same stamp set.

I chose a Simon Says Stamp small tag die for the secondary sentiment and added them to the panel.

To finish off, some gel pen detail and some iridescent sequins.

I started by stamping my Fish with Ink On 3 no line coloring ink and colored them using my Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers and fussy cut them. I set them aside to work on my background panel.

I cut an 8.5 x 3.5 panel from Bristol and ink blended my Distress Inks. I added some water using my Distress Sprayer let that dry. 

Once the panel was dry, I added some "seaweed" from a Lawn Fawn set to the bottom and bottom sides of the panel.

I embossed my sentiments, also from a Lawn Fawn set and added all of my elements to the panel using foam tape. To finish off, I added my panel to a Neena card base and some Iridescent Bubbles by Studio Katia.

Simon Says Stamp Rainbows Release

 Happy Thursday craft friends and happy Simon Says Stamp release day! June is Pride month and this release is full of Rainbow goodies!

Who doesn't love playing with rainbows! I used the super fun new Fading Tiny Dots stencil fro my first card :)

I chose a rainbow array of Distress Inks and ink blended on my Slim Line panel. This one was so fast and fun to put together, I stamped my Love is Love sentiment from the new You Are Loved stamp set and simply added some card hearts and iridescent sequins to finish off my card.

I used stamps from the amazing You Are Loved stamp set for this one and Copic colored my images. I used the new gorgeous Salvaged Patina Distress Ink for my clouds and added some clouds to my rainbow.

To finish off some red clay hearts :)

For my last card, I again used the You Are Loved stamp set and the new Simply Wafer die paired with this amazing Simon Says Stamp 3D Embossing Folder. I finished off with some rainbow Jewels.

I was anxious to use this Papa die by Simon Says Stamp from the last release! My Dad is French Canadian, so I used this opportunity to make one of his Father's Day cards. Full discloser, there should be an "s" at the end of papa for the smaller sentiments to be proper French... lol I did not have a sentiment in the same scale to "doctor" my sentiment. I think he'll forgive me :)

I used my Pink Fresh plaid stencil (I love this stencil so much) with a mix of Distress Inks.  I die cut my sentiment from two different Tonic specialty card stocks and added some gold twine from my stash (I actually think that the gold twine was my Grandmothers).

I stamped and embossed my secondary sentiments and added them with foam tape. To finish off, some sequins in coordinating colors!
