Simon Says Stamp | Shamrock Field 2 Ways. Blog Hop + Giveaway

Simon Says Stamp | Shamrock Field 2 Ways

Hello, friends and thank you for joining me for the Simon Says Stamp Good Luck Charm Release blog hop! As the name suggests, this release is geared towards St. Patricks Day with a plethora of fun products. The one that caught my eye the most was the Shamrock Field Cling Background stamp. I used it in 2 different ways to create the cards I’m sharing today.

CARD DETAILS

The card above uses the stamp as intended – I simply stamped it in Versafine Onyx Black, embossed in clear powder, and colored with Copic markers (YG67, YG17, YG03). I love how big the shamrocks are and the detail already added to them. There’s not much you need to do to make a beautiful card using this stamp.

To create a sentiment I used Simon’s Printed Sentiment Strips from the Reverse Lucky and Lucky sets and foam mounted them wonky. I also embellished the card with Green gems.

For the 2nd card, I did almost everything the same, but I used only 1 shamrock – I fussy cut it from the stamped background and foam mounted it onto a card to create a focal point. You can see just how big one shamrock is – this is an A2 card.

I used Simon’s Fog cardstock for a card base and added a white panel on top for contrast.

The Printmaking Plants is another fun set. I shared 2 card ideas using it on my blog yesterday. You can check them out HERE.

  2. Oh I really love your cards…especially your plant cards! I do love how the shamrock background stamp has all the detail to help you color and shade!

  3. Wonderful cards! I especially like the shamrock cards and how you stretched the use of the background stamp. Thanks for sharing your talent!

  4. The detail on those shamrocks is amazing. I love the cards you made with them and the planr card is adorable!

  5. The shamrocks background stamp has such beautiful definition, but then your coloring adds wonderful dimension on top of that! Gorgeous, I enjoy your coloring so much. The Be Strong has, for me, such unexpected colors, but I like them. Loving the encouragement in the CZ sentiment stamp set!

  6. Beautiful cards. I love how you can dress your cards up with simple sentiment strips :). I need to do that 😀
