If you are looking for today’s how-to video I have exciting news for you!
Not only one… but three cards in one video!!!!
I am honored to be the guest designer at SimonSaysStamp blog today and celebrate STAMPtember with all of you!
Here’s a little bit about STAMPtember™!
Simon Says Stamp was founded in 2002 with an interest in exclusively selling rubber stamps. It didn’t take long until we realized we couldn’t stop there. Over the past 10 years we celebrate rubber stamping in its full glory by giving access to people around the world to a one stop shop. Rubber stamps still remain the heart of our business and we are celebrating by hosting a “STAMPtember” ™ event intended to inspire, educate, and celebrate the greatness of rubber stamping. Part of the enticement of rubber stamping is that stamps can be used in creating or complementing ANYTHING! From stamping dates on bank documents and postage parcels in the early 18th century, rubber stamping has dramatically expanded to include card making, scrapbooking, mixed media and many forms of altering and expressing art.
SimonSaysStamp has been my favorite shop for years. I’ve been getting everything I have from them since I first started my cardmaking adventures. Loved their service, their amazing selection of products and their unbeatable international shipping rates for years. And then I met Heidi in person! And I loved SimonSaysStamp even more! She is an amazing woman that I am happy to call a friend.
For my guest post I decided to use one of the most fun stamp companies out there! PAPER SMOOCHES! And I am sharing 3 cards and a how-to video over at SimonSaysStamp blog so make sure you click HERE and visit.

Hi Vicky,
Every week, I look forward to your videos that are chock full of creative and fun ideas, and this week was a triple pleasure…thank you for sharing your creative inspiration! I do have a question regarding a product I saw you use twice in the video (cards 1 & 3). Prior to embossing, you used a product in a bottle, but I could not see what it was, and I didn’t see it in the list of products used. I’m assuming it was some kind of “embossing buddy” like product to help with the embossing powder, but I’ve never seen anything like that in a bottle. Just curious….
Thanks again for sharing your talent,
Nanc
hi Nanc,
this is the POWDER TOOL by EK Success. It is great to deactivate stickers and to clear surfaces before embossing. Here is a link to check it out http://www.simonsaysstamp.com/servlet/the-20266/EK-Success-POWDER-TOOL/Detail
Thank you for your lovely comment and for taking the time to visit!
Wow Vicky, all of these cards were just Fabulous. I don’t own any Paper Smooches stamps, but that’s about to change very soon. They are just too cute. I’m so glad you were a Guest Designer here. I’m now a new YouTube follower for you. Smooches…
Three cards!! Thank you, Vicky, for another terrific video! You gave us lots of great ideas!
Nice seeing you on the SSS blog! Love your cards and I always enjoy your videos! Thanks so much for the discount code. Hope to stock up on some PS goodies!
Yipeeeeeee Vicky so happy and so excited to see your feature on the SSS blog. You rocked it out of the park. Missing you and Aris, Hugs, Kathy
Vicky… thanks for sharing your techniques.
It was cool watching you whiten the eyes, cut out parts of stamps, and emboss then color with markers. And the paper button? Did you punch out holes in that sticker? What a clever idea!
I’m headed there to check out the videos right now. 3 of them?!?! This is a treat!
I loved each one of your cards! So many fun techniques and all so different. Thanks for the wonderful video yet again!
Three fantastic cards vicky, loved the video, and the glitter on the double sided tape is a fabulous idea..
Luv CHRISSYxx
All three cards are so fun and thanks for sharing a fab video!
