Crafting Sweet Treats with Simon Says Stamp + YouTube Live Replay: Crafting Besties are BACK!

Friday, January 31, 2025 | By: Lea Lawson

Yesterday was such a blast! I had the pleasure of creating a beautiful card live with my very best friend, Heather. I featured the whimsical Sweet Treats product suite from Simon Says Stamp, which showcases adorable cupcakes, candies, and hearts. I incorporated two of my favorite techniques: gold pearl embossing and ink blending in pinks, aquas, and a touch of red. The sentiment "love you with all my heart" ties everything together, making this card perfect for someone special!

If you want to see the magic happen, check out the video below to watch the entire card-making process. It was an incredible crafting session filled with creativity, fun, laughter, and just a little bit of chaos. I hope you enjoy it as much as we did! We plan to do this more often and develop a regular schedule once I am moved and settled in Montana.

Heather and I each have a special prize up for grabs! We will randomly pick the winners from all comments, both live & on replay. Winners will be picked on Monday, so make sure to enter by leaving a comment if you haven't already. Good luck to everyone, and thank you for being part of our creative community!

P.S. We had to troubleshoot a terrible echo. I suggest fast forwarding to the six minute mark, which is where we figure it out. There is also a time stamp in the video description on YouTube. 😊

Easy step by step instruction:

  • Create A2 card base from light pink cardstock.
  • Stamp & heat emboss the treat images in gold pearl embossing powder to white cardstock.
  • Ink blend each treat with the coordinating stencils in shades of pink, turquoise and red.
  • Diecut with the coordinating dies, then add glitter accents to each treat as shown.
  • Diecut a white cardstock panel with the largest A2 stitched rectangle, then the Chunky Hearts Panel die.
  • Diecut the Chunky Hearts Panel from a scrap of ivory glitter cardstock.
  • Stamp the main sentiment in Peony ink, and the secondary sentiment in onyx black.
  • Diecut the main sentiment with the coordinating die, along with two extra layers. Stack & glue together.
  • Trim the secondary sentiment into a thin strip.
  • Mount the heart panel to the card front with foam adhesive, then adhere three ivory glitter hearts into the openings as shown.
  • Arrange the treats to the front, along with the extra ivory glitter heart.
  • Attach the sentiments to the front with foam adhesive.
  • Accent with prism gems to finish.
