STAMPtember Exclusive: Loads of Thanks Stamp Set

Today we are featured on the Simon Says Stamp site with an EXCLUSIVE stamp set that we designed for the 2017 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 Loads of Thanks Stamp Set and coordinating die set. These items are only available through Simon Says Stamp while supplies last!

This stamp set is called Loads of Thanks and you can find it and 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! Here's what I made:

I used the image of the puppy pushing the wheelbarrow and carefully stamped the image of the kitty and pumpkins to fill the wheelbarrow onto watercolor paper using Archival Black ink. I used the Tim Holtz Stamp Platform to stamp the images so it was easier to line up! I also added the little birdie on top of the pumpkins.

To color the image I used inktense colored pencils and a water brush. I usually make the kitty orange since our Newton is an orange tabby but I thought with the orange pumpkins it would be too much so I tried coloring a calico kitty. I think it turned out super cute! I added the "fall is best shared with friends" sentiment over the image and I also sponged some distress ink along the edges of the paper to soften the bright white paper. 

For the background I used the little leaf stamps and stamped them randomly on a piece of orange cardstock to create a fun fall pattern. Then I created a scalloped border out of dark brown cardstock using our Sky Borders Die Set. This is one of my favorite die sets - I reach for it again and again! 

I hope you liked my project today and our new exclusive set. 

Remember, you can only get this at Simon Says Stamp while supplies last! 

Some of our Design Team was also able to play along with this new set!
