Simon Says Stamp has just come out with a new line of products, called Rainbow Splash!! This new line of products is full of wonderful color and fun, and makes for some wonderful clean and simple cards!! I have made a couple cards using the new cardstock, ink, a stamp set, and embossing folder from this new release!...
I am using the Birthday Wishes stamp set for my first card. The ink and cardstock colors are so pretty!! I LOVE the fact that the inks MATCH the cardstock! I knew, when I stamped the balloons, that I wanted the ink to match the strips that I would be using, so....I quickly made some balloon stencils, so I could blend ink on the balloons and stay in the lines! To do this, stamp the image on a piece of acetate. Using a craft knife, cut through the acetate, then cut the image out with a pair of scissors. Wipe away the lines of the image from the acetate, and you're ready to blend ink on the balloons. Below is a pic of what I just explained in one pic...
I added the sentiment from the set, and some of the gem stickers for added pretty! Here's a close up...
The second card, I used one of the pretty new embossing folders, and a sentiment from another of the stamp sets!...
I thought these flowers were so pretty on this embossing folder, and I decided to use the Ballet and Princess inks from the release, to color the flowers, and Lime for the leaves. How to do this?? I brushed the ink pad on my acrylic block, sprayed a little water on the ink, and used a very small paint brush to brush the ink onto the embossed flowers and leaves. Super easy...don't have to be perfect...and super fun!!
I used the Gravel ink for the dots on the embossed cardstock, and used my Enamel Accents to dot all the flowers. I stamped the sentiment and cut it out, popping it up on the card, I used the Princess and Ballet ink cardstocks to frame the flowers, and done!! Here's a close up...
This release is wonderfully easy, fun and so colorful to create with!! Hope you will check it out...I've provided a link, below! Hope you have a colorful, fun and easy weekend!!
