time for a STAMPtember®️ Blog PARTY!!!

Hello crafty friends! I am so excited that STAMPtember®️ is finally here! If you are not sure what this is, Simon Says Stamp has a month long celebration each September where they do an awesome Simon Says Stamp branded product release at the start of the month and then also feature EXCLUSIVE collaborations from some of your favorite stamp companies all month long. Different stamps are released through out the month, and once these exclusive collaborations are gone, they are gone...so get them while you can! Head on over to the Simon Says Stamp Blog today to see all of the Simon Says Stamp designers and friends that are joining the party with some very special creations! 

My tradition for the past few new releases is to take a product and show it used 3 different ways, being that it's STAMPtember®️ and all, I have one stamp that I have used 4 different ways to share with you. Before we get to that, let me point out the graphic below that gives you a code for a FREE gift with purchase...the code is valid until 9/4 at 11:59pm or while supplies last. 

Now onto the cards! These cards are all created using the Overlapping Drops Background Cling stamp and a greeting stamped and cut from the Christmas Blessings stamp and die set. 


To create this card, I embossed the Overlapping Drops background in clear embossing powder, and sprayed it with the new Tim Holtz Distress Mica stains before adding the Etched Eucalyptus Wreath die and sentiment from the Christmas Blessings set.

This one is super simple and festive, stamp and emboss both the Overlapping Drops and the sentiment from the Christmas Blessings set in Silver Tinsel Embossing Powder.

For this card, I stamped and embossed the Overlapping Drops and Christmas Blessings sentiment in Gold Embossing Powder. Then I painted in some of the drops with gold watercolors and added a few metallic drops for extra sparkle. 

Cheers to the New Year Card:

For my final card, I embossed the Overlapping Drops in clear, and colored them in using Karin Metallic Markers and added just a bit of splatter to make it more fun.
