Chasing Summer Skies

06/26/2025

This card is all about those golden summer sunsets! ☀️ Featuring products from Simon Says Stamp’s Friend Like You release, I created a layered mountain scene with soft stenciled shapes and warm ink-blended skies. Puffy white clouds, a bold sun, and a little twine bow bring out the cozy summer vibes, while the sentiment wraps it all up: Enjoy the warm days of summer. 🌄✨

Relax & Reconnect – Inlaid Die Cuts + a Soft Glow

06/05/2025

This clean and calming card was created using products from Simon Says Stamp’s Moments In Time release — and it features a layered look with a fun twist! 🌿 I started by stenciling and die cutting the snake plant, then set it aside while I ink-blended soft pink and purple hues onto the negative space left behind. To finish it off, I reinserted the plant using foam adhesive for dimensional pop and topped the design with a bold “Relax” sentiment and some black ink splatter for contrast. The result is modern, minimal, and quietly powerful — perfect for sending a moment of calm to someone special.

Relax, You’ve Earned It 🌿

05/29/2025

This handmade card was created using products from Simon Says Stamp’s Moments In Time release, and it’s all about calm vibes and creative texture 🌿. I featured a bold snake plant and used multiple types of embossing paste to add rich dimension to the leaves. Each layer was carefully applied and allowed to dry completely before adding the next — a slow process, but one that was totally worth it for the depth and tactile finish. A soft dotted, double-stamped background and a bold “Relax” sentiment tie everything together in a clean, grounded design that feels just as peaceful as it looks.

Crisp foiling meets soft ink blending in this soft floral card featuring products from the Yana’s Daisies Collection by Yana Smakula for Spellbinders 🌼 I foiled the daisies in white, blended shades of purple over the top, then added a chic black and white foiled sentiment—plus a bonus version using leftover foil! Clean layout, high impact, and a few sparkly gems to finish it off 💜

A few finishing touches like scalloped waves, splatters, and gems add the perfect ocean vibes! Check out the full blog post for all the details! 🐳✨
