Simon Says Stamp One of a Kind Release Blog Hop (VIDEO+GIVEAWAY!)

Good morning!  I am so excited to be helping Simon Says Stamp celebrate their One of a Kind release this weekend!  The hop started yesterday and continues today for even more inspiration!  Have you checked out the release yet?  Go ahead…I’ll wait! 😉

You're So Cool by Jessica Frost-Ballas for Simon Says Stamp

I LOVE the Artsy Fruits and So Cool sets and thought it would be fun to combine them to create some summery melon popsicles!  I also created a video tutorial that you can watch below or at my Youtube channel!

I used BOTH sides of the watermelon stamps to create watermelons and canteloupes and then stamped the outline of the popsicle stamp to create popsicles.  Then I stamped the back of the rind stamp to create rinds for my melon popsicles.  I fussy cut the popsicles and added a little shading with copic markers!  I added two layers of ultra high embossing powder to give the popsicles a super shiny look!  Then I blended a little ink onto my background panel and added flecks of black distress ink.  I adhered my popsicles and sentiment with foam mounting tape and then added a sprinkling of sparkling clear sequins to finish the card!

And that’s it!  Now I can’t decide what I want to eat…a popsicle or a big slice of fresh canteloupe…hmmm… 😉

    Super idea to add the UTEE to the popsicles…Kudos to thinking of doing this. Makes the card even more eye-catching!
