Little Yellow School Bus

As I have my pumpkin spice coffee with my pumpkin harvest crisp yogurt for breakfast (yup...I'm totally ONE OF THOOOOSE), I wanted to share another fun little card I created using the Simon Says Stamp Back to School stamp set. You could easily change this sentiment out to be a cute teacher thank you or even an encouraging lunch box note for your kiddo!



I colored the image using Copics and and Spectrum Noir markers. I added the little smoke puffs and the road lines by hand. P.S. That was scary. HA! The windows of the bus are coated with glossy accents to add just a little bit of shine!



Don't forget to check out the two current GIVEAWAYS that are open right now! You could win a FREE pair of Glasses (prescription or non) and you can also win some fun Simon Says Stamp goodies! YAY!

Have a Happy!

Because COLOR!

Because COLOR! We have a brand new Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge for you this week! We want you to MAKE IT COLORFUL! Yup. That's the challenge! Make something wonderfully colorful! I, naturally, pulled out some of my brand new STAMPtember goodies from Simon Says Stamp for this one, along with some red cardstock to get me started. Red is my favorite color, so things generally go well when I start there!



PARTY! Are you ready for a party? Because I AM! This super fun Party die is just too much! I love it! I combined it with the trees from the Warm Christmas Wishes stamp set. Nope. I didn't make a Christmas card. Yup. I used a Christmas stamp set. It's AMAZING what you can do, isn't it?! *wink* The Design Team is showcasing Doodlebug products this week and I decided to use some Doodlebug Sprinkles as accents on my card!



A bit of Wink of Stella adds sparkle to the word 'Party', while some clear Stickles make the tree lights shine!

Now it's YOUR turn! Create something COLORFUL and link it up to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge blog for a chance to win a $50 Gift Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp Store! Woot! Woot! 

Also, be sure to check out the new STAMPtember products that were just released yesterday! We have some fun stuff coming up all month long! I do so love STAMPtember!!!

Have a Happy!

STAMPtember!

My calendar appears to be a bit confused this morning. You see, it says it is September, but, we all know what month it really is...

It's STAMPtember!!! Yes, that's right, it is the most WONDERFUL time of the year over at Simon Says Stamp! There are over sixty new products being introduced and most of them are LIVE and ready for your shopping cart! The new release includes stamps, dies, ink, and more! Simon Says Stamp sent me some STAMPtember goodies in advance to share with you, so you will see some fun stuff around here this week!



For my first card... (HA! I feel like a magician...for my FIRST trick...Just me? Okay. Got it. Moving on.) Simon sent me the gorgeous Snowflake Block Die. This die is available individually and also as part of a gorgeous bundle of winter dies. I combine it with a greeting from the Inside Holiday Greetings stamp set that has actually been around for awhile, but is a classic and a great set to have on hand!



A bit of May Arts twine adds some rustic texture with the bold red and white color combo. This die is so great for making bulk cards because it sort of does all the design work for you! Just LOOK at how well it serves as the focal point on the card! I love it!

You guys need to head on over to Simon Says Stamp and check out the STAMPtember release. For reals, though. My wish list is certainly growing! Head on over and then let me know what is catching YOUR eye!

Have a Happy!
