The stamp set I decided to use for today's "one stamp, five ways" post was chosen because it is called "Let's Get Away". It is part of the SSS Let's Chill Release. I am leaving for Hawaii in one week, so I really liked the vibe of this stamp set haha. And making five cards with it has really gotten me in the mood to go! The Let's Get Away stamp set is also sold with a set of matching dies as a bundle as seen here: And here are my 5 cards. But beware, if you don't have a beach location in mind for summer travel, you may want to after this post! CARD 1: I stamped all of... Read more →
My name is Suzy Plantamura. I live in sunny Orange County, California by the beach. I have three kids, one grand baby, and two dogs. I draw watercolor cards and design stamps for Simon Says Stamp. I have a blog series called "one stamp, five ways" that I post to two times a week. I want to motivate and inspire others to use their stamp sets more and learn new techniques. I love designing products and making cards to share with others!

Simon Says Stamp Hot Foil Plate From the Let's Chill Release
After recently purchasing a Glimmer Hot Foil Machine, I am in love with the hot foil plates/dies that Simon Says Stamp has been releasing. It's an addiction for sure so of course I had to purchase all of the foil colors made for this machine to try them all out. In the Let's Chill release, SSS had three flowers I used on my card today: Doodle Daisy, Small Doodle Daisy, and Intricate Roses. I mixed them all on one card.

I used my Spellbinders... Read more →

Gina K. Designs Succulent Spray Stamp Set
Today I have a second card using one of the newest floral stamp sets by Gina K. Designs. I used the Spring Bouquet stamp set on this post a few days ago. For the card I'm sharing today, I used the Succulent Spray stamp set that also has a set of matching dies. I am very drawn to her stamps because I love florals and I also love the fonts she uses in her sentiment stamps.

When I decide to purchase a stamp set, it usually has to be a beautiful floral that I think I will get a lot of use out of and love to color. When I saw this set by Gina K. Designs called Spring Bouquet, I knew it was one I needed to own. Here is an image of it: I love posies, and it looks like posies to me! I colored them as posies anyway. But I love ALL flowers, so I'm not to picky haha. Here is my card: This is a pretty straightforward one layer card! I started by stamping the image on white cardstock with MFT Natural ink. I then colored it in with colored pencils (an... Read more →
