Wait that’s not all! Simon is having a Golden Bone Giveaway. You could win an assortment of Simon brand products from every release for an ENTIRE YEAR! Yep, that’s right, every release for a whole year! It’s kind of like Willie Wonka and the Golden Ticket. How fun is that!?! See all the details in the photo above.
This year’s STAMPtember is filled to the brim with amazing products and I was so excited to work with the exclusive Floral Background stamp. I decided to use the stamp for a full background on one card and as part of a floral focal point on another. I stamped the image once, colored the flowers and cut it down to size to fit the design of my cards. I hope you enjoy seeing how I used this gorgeous stamp and that it inspires you to join in the excitement and fun that STAMPtember brings every year. Enjoy!
I used the Floral Background to create the entire background for my first card. I colored the flowers with Prismacolor Premier colored pencils and blended them with a blending stump. I adhered the background to colored coordinated cardstock and added accents with the Simon Says Stamp Corbel Border die and Brush Stroke Messages stamp set.
For my second card, I used a bit of the leftover background image and made that the focal point of the card. I created the main background with watercolor paper and Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink. I adhered the main background to a coordinating piece of cardstock, added some twine and stamped a sentiment from the Brush Stroke Messages stamp set from Simon Says Stamp.
I hope you enjoyed seeing how I created my cards using the Floral Background stamp and that you pop on over to Simon Says Stamp to see the entire collection. You can find it all here.
