Fall-elujah! It's the Pumpkin Queens! Art Impressions/Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember® Exclusive

Hello Ai fans and welcome to my
 STAMPtember® 2026 post!

I've been "patiently" waiting to be able to share this fun new

Art Impressions/Simon Says Stamp collaboration set with you.

The set is called SSE26A Pumpkin Queens and can be found here

as a stamps only set. See below for stamp/die set.

For my card, I chose to have the ladies at a pumpkin farm. They're enjoying the

crisp fall air with some pumpkin spice coffee and getting a selfie in the pumpkin patch.

This reminds me so much of my daughter and myself. We love the fall and all of the fun

activities that it comes with.

The set can also be found in a bundle with coordinating dies.

If you missed the post on the Art Impressions blog, be sure to visit to see everyone else's cards.

Remember, this is an exclusive, limited set. Once it sells out, it's gone forever. Get yours

while supplies last.

Long Stemmed Daisies from Art Impressions

 Hello Ai fans!

Is everyone enjoying these long stemmed flowers as much as me?

Daisies are one of my favorite flowers.

I initially began by stamping this image just once. When I placed it on my card, it just didn't feel like it filled it up enough. My card is pretty large. I stamped it two more times and fussy cut out all of the flowers. I then stuck sprigs here and there until it seemed like a full bouquet.

I stamped one of the sentiments on a nested oval for the front of the card, framed it with a scalloped oval and then popped it up on dimensional foam tape.

On the inside, I stamped another sentiment from the set and also stamped the daisies again. The bottom border was made with some of Art Impressions designer paper and the largest die in the scalloped rectangle set.

Cozy Little Cabin

 Hello Ai fans!

Happy Tuesday.

Today I'm sharing my card that I created for the On the Border challenge.
I needed a thank you card for an old friend who loaned our family her cottage
this summer.

I used gold paint and 2 different border dies from Art Impressions to
give my card a little something extra special.
(links below)

I also used a foundation stamp so all of the guess work was done for me.

Thank you Mrs. Sprovkin!

Copics used:

Story Tile Wedding Card

 Hello Ai fans!

A friend of ours is getting married on Saturday and I'm
sharing the wedding card that I made for them.

Their invitation was movie themed so I decided to play off of that.

I love the Story Tile template because it creates little windows and 
each one features something a little bit different.

I also used the template on the inside but I cut some of the borders out
to create two large windows. I also embossed the designer paper on the left
for a little something extra.

Congratulations Mike and Cathryn!

Shadowbox Gift Card Holder

 Hello Ai fans!

I'm sharing my creation for the Furry Friends challenge today.

I used the 6121 – Storybook Template because I love the look of the shadowbox.

Tucked in a little bear from 6017 – Baby Panda Set and accessorized with several other sets which are all linked below.

On the back, I added a pocket to tuck in a gift card.
The gift card pocket wasn't meant to go with this set so the card does

stick out over the top a bit, but that didn't bother me.

I think it's a cute way to present a gift card to an expectant parent.

Little Pink Houses from Art Impressions

 Hello Ai fans!!

If you haven't had time to check out the two new Storybook series releases,
now is the time to head over to the website and see them.

I've used the 6116 – Thinking of Home
on my card.

Although I used the template die set that coordinates with the stamp sets,

I chose to place it on the card like a frame.

I finished it off with a pretty little bow.

These sets are so cute!

Boy oh Boy Challenge Diaper Bag

 Hello Ai fans!

Today I have a little experiment to share with you.
I was wanting to make a baby card for the Boy oh Boy! challenge
and I got the idea to use the tool bag as a diaper bag.

I'm pleased with how it turned out.

The die that cuts out the bag also cuts slits to place the tools in. The tools

are smaller than the baby items I included, so I cut some of the slits open

a little larger with a craft knife. It worked perectly.

I used the new silver paint to add accents to the bag and to paint

the pin so it would look more real.

So far, this card is for no one in particular. The only baby on the way

in my life is the next door neighbors daughter and she's having a girl.

I know it'll come in handy at some point though.

Enjoy your day!

Tony's Tiny Joke Book (Part 3)

 Hello Ai fans!

Welcome to my last installment of Tony's Tiny Joke Book.

I shared the previous pages, cover and box in prior posts.
Those can be found HERE and HERE.

I was asked to make a birthday card for a 9 year old boy with a 9 year old sense of humor.
I thought a little journal filled with silly dad jokes and riddles would be perfect for him.



The questions are on top of a flap and the answers are underneath.

I paired a cute animal with each joke.

I mean, how cute are these little guys?!

I loved that the Art Impressions Designer Paper
makes it so easy to coordinate an entire journal.

I hope you enjoyed Tony's Tiny Joke Book.
I'm told that he did.
