SSS And Back Again Release Blog Hop: Day 1
Hello hello crafty friends and welcome back to another tutorial. I’m extremely excited to be apart of Simon Says Stamp Blog Hop Day 1 for their And Back Again release. If you are hopping along then I am guessing you are coming from the very talented and amazing Suzy. She is sooo amazing isn’t she? Simon is giving away a 3×4 Love Gnome Stamp Set (with purchase of $25 or more) Make sure you use code: GNOMIE. This promotion will expire 1/23/22 at 11:59 pm EST. So let’s get started.
I started by using an A2 size panel using some Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock and I treated it with my anti static tool. Using my Misti, I inked up my SSS Tossed Hearts background stamp with some VersaMark embossing ink. I sprinkled some SSS Clear embossing powder on top, shook off the excess and heat set it with my heat tool.
I grabbed my Aged Mahogany, Festive Berries and Kitsch Flamingo distress inks and ink blended my panel using SSS blender brushes. Go back and forth until you get a good blend.
I ran my SSS Outline Love die cut through my die cutting machine using some 110lb cardstock as well. I did that approx 4 times for dimension.
I trimmed down my panel and adhered it to my A2 size card base using Neenah Solar White 110lb cardstock. I added my sentiment and finished my project off with some embellishments.
That’s it. Simple, right?!? The products I used for this card and where you can find them are listed below. At no extra charge to you for using the list, you can click on them and go shopping. Thanks for stopping by. Have fun hopping and good luck! Hope you enjoy what Lisa has created. Be sure to stop by Simons Blog tomorrow 1/21/22 for Day 2 of the hop..there will be more inspiration from this release from super talented designers! You can also check out the entire release here.
