The latest SimonSaysStamp release is out! It is called “The color of fun” and it introduces 12 new ink pad colors along with fun stamps and dies.
So today I made a fun summer card using one of the new stamp sets and a couple of the new ink pads!
Isn’t the texture on the ice-cream just yummy?! And this is not embossed and it isn’t glitter all over. That is a medium called “Glass Bead Glitter Gel” and if you ask me it is a must have. If you hate having glitter all over and avoid it on your projects for that reason then you have to try this. Beautiful texture.
You can enjoy the how-to video below or at my YouTube channel

Thank you all for visiting today. Join me tomorrow with another video featuring Avery Elle.
I have some microbead paste from another company but find it difficult to use (paper warps, hard to cut). Maybe I should cut the images first, then apply the paste?
I love microbeads. I’ve never used the ones in paste. What a neat product! Thanks!
Wonderful..Thanks for the tips about the glass beads – it’s in my basket!
What an adorable and fun card Vicky! Love the paste with the glitter looks like fun to used!
Came out so pretty and
fun! Great medium.

Thanks for the video and tip about glass beads-have always wanted to use them,but wasn’t sure how to go about it. Loving the new ink colors, especially the lemon and bubblegum! Cute card.

Love this card…”
I really enjoy watching your videos. They inspire me!
The ice creams look sooo yummy!! Love the colors of this card, they are so vibrant and amazing!! Awesome card Vicky!!
Beautiful! The Glitter Gel looks so pretty at the ice cream. I put the Glitter Gel in my cart at SSS yesterday and today, it is already sold out. I guess, it’s because of your great card and video 🙂 Have a beautiful weekend, Vicky.
Love the card, Looks refreshing jiji. I had never seen the glass bead glitter gel, very interesting how you use it and the effect that it creates. Liked the technique of stamping parts of the sentiments in two pieces, great idea.Thanks for sharing.
great card per usual……… thank you
Vicki such a great card,,,,lots of inspiration now that I am off to Ithaki, & will have so much more free time.Hopefully you will post more during the summer, Love that glass bead glitter gel.
Karen each summer I move to our summer house with the family. That means I spend all day at the beach and I have no craft supplies with me. Only a sketch book to note down my ideas. It helps my mojo and I do that every summer. That being said the blog is “slow” during the summer. I plan on shooting a few videos before I leave, so I have everything scheduled. I’ll see how that goes … Have a great and relaxing summer!
What a great product! You are always so insightful and creative!
Love the glass glitter gel and colors.
You are so inspiring in your cards AND art journal pages. Thank You!
Saw your post this morning and was intrigued by the glass beads. Guess what, they’re sold out at Simon, so disappointed. Love your work Vicky! and thanks for sharing.
