Stamptember 2025!

Hello again friends; I hope you've had a great day so far.  I'm back again to share a card as part of this year's 16th celebration of STAMPtember from Simon Says Stamp.  The stamp set I am using literally dropped on my mat this lunchtime so I excitedly made a quick card to share with you.  I was lucky to be gifted the awesome stamp set called 'shiny baubles' which is part of Simon Says Stamp own STAMPtember release; this is not limited edition and will be restocked as needed.  

Today we are revealing NEW Simon Says Stamp-branded products designed to inspire and delight you. All are available exclusively at SimonSaysStamp.com. You’ll see intriguing new stamps (of course), inks, dies, embossing folders, and stencils, as well as some other fun surprises. 

During STAMPtember®, they will also be releasing EXCLUSIVE products made in partnership with many of the industry’s finest brands and ONLY available at SimonSaysStamp.com!  Heidi is going live tomorrow (Tuesday 2nd September at 12 noon ET) with STAMPtember exclusives, news, inspiration, prizes and much more so pop over to YouTube and set up your notification as you won't want to miss it!

I stamped each bauble with two colours of ink and added some gold heat embossing.  I hope you like it. 
Here is my card:
A closer look at the baubles:
Plus I decorated the inside:
I began by cutting a panel from fog card 4" x 5 1/4" and created my own background with the small star stamps in the set.  I stamped the larger bauble in two contrasting colours of red ink and the smaller bauble in two shades of green ink, adding the extra details in the darker shade of ink.  I added the toppers and focal images in the centre with gold heat embossing.  I don't have the dies so I fussy cut out the baubles.  I also gold heat embossed the sentiment directly onto the bottom of the panel.  I made a hole at the top of the baubles with my pokey tool and threaded some gold thread which I secured at the back with double sided tape.  The baubles were added with foam squares.  I added some scrap white card behind my panel for stability and dimension and added it to my card base with double sided tape.  For the inside I simply stamped a strip of the fog card with the stars and added it to the bottom of my white panel with liquid glue.  I gold heat embossed another sentiment from the stamp set in the centre.  The panel was adhered to the card base with double sided tape.  I'm hoping to create a few more cards throughout the month using this stamp set so stay tuned.  

I would like to enter my card into the following challenges:
