Simon Says Stamp FLUTTERING BY Release

Hello! Today, I’m delighted to share three projects featuring products from the Simon Says Stamp FLUTTERING BY release.

My first project showcases the Picture Book Squirrel which I’ve paired with Flickering Butterflies and the Woodgrain Block.

I cut the Picture Book Squirrel from white cardstock and colored the pieces with Copic markers. I pieced them together over a piece of cardstock, which was cut slightly smaller than the assembled squirrel, and glued the colored pieces to it. For a bit of whimsy, I added googly eyes.

I clear-embossed the Big Thanks sentiment cut from white cardstock and backed it with vellum, cut with the same die set. I added the sentiment to cardstock cut with the Woodgrain Block die. I cut the Flickering Butterflies from cardstock which had been colored with Copic markers. The clouds were cut with the Picture Book Sky Background die.

My second project features the Center Cut Burst background stamp.

I began by inking a cardstock panel with Distress Oxide inks in Squeezed Lemonade, Spiced Marmalade, and Picked Raspberry. I then stamped the Center Cut Burst stamp (without the center) with Archival black ink. I next stamped the sentiment from the Big Thanks Words stamp set. I added the die-cut Thanks, which I cut with the dies in the Big Thanks die set, above the stamped sentiment.

My final project today showcases the Abstract Triangle stencil on a CAS thank you card.

I inked white cardstock through the stencil with Distress Oxide inks in Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, and Blueprint Sketch. I added a sentiment strip stamped with the Big Thanks Words stamp set to which I adhered a clear-embossed Big Thanks cut from black cardstock.
