Simon Says Stamp March Card Kit: Lucky Rainbow

14 Feb

Good morning!  The March 2019 Lucky Rainbow card kit from Simon Says Stamp is now available and perfect for your crafting!  This kit is FULL of cheerful, bright, and vibrant spring and St. Patrick’s Day products:

  • Lawn Fawn Really Rainbows 6 x 6 inch paper
  • Simon Says Stamp Amazing 6 x 8 inch clear stamp set
  • Simon Says Stamp Wooly Lucky 3 x 4 inch clear stamp set
  • Simon Says Stamp Lucky hybrid ink cube
  • Simon Says Stamp Metallic Gold envelope
  • 2 Simon Says Stamp White envelopes
  • Doodlebug Lots o’ Luck Icons cardstock stickers
  • Buttons Galore & More Lucky Charmz embellishments
  • Neenah Solar White 80# cardstock
  • Simon Says Stamp Doll Pink cardstock
  • Simon Says Stamp Blue Violet cardstock
  • Simon Says Stamp Orange Peel cardstock
  • Simon Says Stamp Sunshine cardstock
  • Simon Says Stamp Green Apple cardstock

Today I created a pair of vibrant cards using the card kit stamp set but going slightly off-holiday to show how you can use this set year-round!

To start I placed the round stamps on the lid of my MISTI in a cascading pattern.  Then I stamped then onto strathmore bristol cardstock with versamark and heat-embossed them with white embossing powder.  I blended distress oxide ink in peacock feathers, mermaid lagoon, blueprint sketch, and wilted violet across the panel and then spritzed it with shimmer spray.  I blotted off the excess water and then splattered the panel with gold paint and white paint.  I let those dry and then stamped a few more circles on the panel and heat-embossed them with gold embossing powder.

I stamped the sentiment onto black cardstock with versamark and heat-embossed it with gold embossing powder.  I trimmed it down and adhered it to the card with foam mounting tape.  To finish the card I added a sprinkling of metallic gold sequins and teal enamel dots!

My second card follows the same process but uses candied apple, abandoned coral, picked raspberry, and spun sugar distress oxide ink!

I finished this card with a different sentiment and some of the gold stars included in the kit along with metallic gold sequins!

I hope this gives you some ideas for the new Lucky Rainbow kit!  Remember, you can also subscribe to their no-obligation kits and receive them monthly for $29.99, or purchase them each month for $34.99 (while supplies last).  I have a feeling this cute kit is going to sell out VERY quickly so if you’re interested I’d recommend heading over and picking up the March kit as soon as possible! 😉 Thanks so much for stopping by and have a wonderful day!

So earlier today I posted the most liked alcohol ink work from 2020 and here are the cards you liked the most this year! ❤️ There are definitely some surprises in there 😂 but it’s fun to see what you liked best! It appears that ink-blending is popular! 😉❤️😘 ••• #allthesparklejfb #cardmaker #cardmaking #cardmakersofinstagram #papercrafting #papercrafts #diycards #handmadecards #cardinspiration #cardideas #cardmakingideas

It’s always fun to look back and see what posts you liked most over the year. And often I’m surprised by what is or is not liked. I’ll be sharing my annual favorite cards series in a few days but I thought I’d share your favorite 2020 alcohol ink posts and cards today! ❤️ Surprisingly alcohol ink art and ink-blending are more liked than most of my cards 😅 so I thought I’d share them separately! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 It does make me wonder if I should change a bit of my art focus for next year! 😂🤔😜 ••• #alcoholink #alcoholinkart #alcoholinkartist #fluidart
