Hello! I’m beyond excited to bring you my card created with the exclusive STAMPtember Colorado Craft Company Anita Jeram stamp and die set! These stamps and dies are exclusive to Simon Says Stamp so hop over there to purchase it before it’s gone cause you know it’s gonna go fast. Then come back here and you can read my tutorial and watch my YouTube video.
The limited edition set sold out quickly right after release but the So Sweet Slimline set is very similar if you are bummed you missed out.
1. Stamp the Stripes and Dots Background stamp on a piece of white cardstock cut to 4 1/4” x 5 1/2” with Hero Arts Contour Ink.
2. On a piece of Neenah Solar White cardstock, stamp the images from Life Happens Collaboration stamp set, the frames from This is us Frames and Wall Words and the mouse with all the treats from So Sweet Slimline stamp set, with Intense Black Ink. Die cut the frames with their coordinating dies.
3. Place the die cut frames over the images and trace the outside of the frame to mark where you will need to color the image.
4. Color the images with Copic Markers. I used the following markers: W1, W3, W5, W7, E43, E44, E47, E49, E50, E53, E55, R00, R32, R35, R37, YR21, YR23, YR31, Y00, Y11 , Y15, Y17, BG000, BG11, BG15, B000, B0000, YG03, YG17
5. Stamp the string hanger from the This is Us stamp set four times using Concord and 9th Grapefruit Ink. Die cut with coordinating dies.
6. Cut the images out along the pencil line and adhere to the back of the frames with Bearly Arts Precision Glue.
7. Stamp the sentiment with Grapefruit Ink on white cardstock and fussy cut. Alternatively, you could use a Sentiment Label Die. Add thin foam squares but don’t adhere it yet.
8. Position all hangers, frames and the sentiment to ensure even spacing. I didn’t worry too much about that as this card has a bit of an old farmhouse wall feel to it.
9. Add the hangers with liquid glue. Place the frames with thin foam squares. Add the popped up sentiment.
10. Add Nuvo Aqua Shimmer Pen, white gel pen highlights, black glaze pen to the eyes, and Glossy Accents to the cherry.
11. Place on a top fold A2 card base. Adhere clear heart below sentiment with liquid glue.
This stamp set is absolutely adorable. It coordinates perfectly with the other Anita Jeram stamps such as the So Sweet Slimline stamp set I used above. There’s one stamp in the collaboration that wouldn’t work well in the frame, so that one was stamped on the inside of the card and the image from So Sweet Slimline stamp set took its place.
Thanks for visiting!
