STAMPtember Exclusive with Simon Says Stamp & Newton's Nook Designs!

Today we are featured on the Simon Says Stamp site with an EXCLUSIVE stamp set designed by us for their STAMPtember celebration! How cool is that? I know many of you LOVE shopping over at Simon Says Stamp so make sure you head over there today and check out our exclusive Bushels of Love Stamp set and coordinating die set. These items are  only available on their site while supplies last!

Here's an image of the set I designed for their STAMPtember celebration!  I thought it would be fun to design a Fall set with Winston (our bear) and his friends in Fall scenes:

You can find this set & a coordinating die  ONLY at Simon Says Stamp!

And, of course, I had to play with the set to show you what you can create with it! I created two fun Fall cards with watercolors:

First I created a couple of watercolor backgrounds using Tim Holtz Distress inks and watercolor papers. I used these as the background for both my cards. For the first card I stamped the image of the raccoon in the basket with Archival Ink on watercolor paper. Then I used Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers to color him. He is so fun to color! I cut him out, along with the extra little pumpkin with the coordinating die. Then I added him onto the watercolor background with dimensional adhesive squares.

I stamped the "Sending you bushels of LOVE" sentiment onto the watercolored panel and then mounted the whole thing onto a yellow cardstock base.  To finish it off I used some thin orange twine.

For the second card I did the same process using the image of the fox and coloring it with Zig Clean Color Real Brush markers. I also colored the little bird and added both these onto the second watercolored panel I had created.

For this card I used the "There is always something to be thankful for" sentiment! I love this sentiment - it would work great for Fall thank you cards!

I hope you liked my projects and our new exclusive set. Remember, you can only get this at Simon Says Stamp while supplies last!
