My Cluttered Corner

The latest kit from Queen and Co is the sweetest ever! It includes an assortment of shaped shaker pieces that can be used to create the cutest candy jars!

The stamp set has sentiments and images perfect for love cards, birthday cards, valentine's day and more!

The colors in the Candy Land Mat Stack are some of my favorite ever because they are...RAINBOW!

I made a video to show everything included in the kit AND how easy it is to make these 2 shaker cards using the kit goodies!

Simon Says Stamp is celebrating Stamptember! So the challenge for Wednesday is to Stamp It using Simon Says Stamp exclusive products. Conveniently, I had the September Kit Club kit waiting to be used and had wanted to see how well Distress Oxide Inks stamp sentiments.

I used the stamp set that came with the kit to stamp lines of Happy Birthday in a rainbow of Distress Oxide Inks. 

I was shocked to see how clearly the Distress Oxide inks stamped the tiny detail sentiment strip! So the answer to the question is most certainly YES! And I will be using my Distress Inks for lots of stamping (sentiment and otherwise) in the future!

Check it out for yourself in this video:

Simon Says Stamp's Wednesday challenge is to use Ranger products and Splatter It! So I decided to create a card with watercolor Ranger Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink splatters.

AND this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge is to use Simon Says Samp products for a Happy Birthday project! The background stamp I used is called Simon Says Stamp Circle Doodle Background and it is one of my favorite background stamps!

After smearing the Distress Oxide inks on a craft sheet, I got it really wet with a paint brush and then flicked it on top of a stamped and heat embossed background. By drying in between colors, I was able to layer up the Distress Oxide splatters without creating muddy browns.

I figured the colorful splatters were perfect for a birthday card, so I used the Poppystamps birthday sentiment die to create a die cut inlay sentiment.

Want to see how fun it was to splatter all those colorful inks? Check out this video I filmed:

The June Queen and Co kit is called Pretty Presents and includes a fabulous 6x6 paper pad, present shaker shapes, sprinkles and a fabulous stamp set. I used a bunch of scraps from the 6x6 pad to create my background and stamped a few Paper Smooches sentiments. 

The kit comes with matching dies for the present shakers and I die cut this present from glitter paper.

I created the second background by stamping one of the Queen and Co. sentiments repeatedly in different colors.

I die cut each present in different colors to coordinate with the different sprinkles that came in the kit.

The Pretty Presents kit is perfect for birthday cards and other celebratory greetings. If you are interested in seeing everything in the Queen and Co June kit, check it out HERE.

You get several Shape Shakers in the kit with three sized coordinating dies, a 6x6 Mat Stack, Toppings and acetate to finish your shakers.

With everything that is included in this kit, it is so easy to pull together a few birthday cards to add to your stash!

I've been busy making lots of Valentine's this month, but I wanted to share a birthday card that was up on the Jillibean Soup blog today. I pulled out an embossing folder for the base of this card and then added goodies from the Jillibean Souper Celebration collection.

I love the fun colors in this collection and the awesome new shaker elements too!
