Poppin' Corn Birthday Card

Hello my friends, I'm back to share another card using the Poppin' Corn die and Birthday Blitz stamp set from the Simon Says Stamp Birthday Blitz September 2025 card kit along with some old favourites, Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Odds and Ends and Ticket Booth stamp sets, Tim Holtz/Sizzix Ticket Booth Thinlits and Idea-ology Film Strip Ribbon. You can check out the products in the kit, subscribe if you don't already and also purchase individual items from the kit, if you so wish, HERE.

The perfect card to gift a friend some cinema tickets to celebrate their birthday.

I began by creating a neutral background on Distress Watercolor card using Antique Linen and Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide inks.
I inked one of the images from Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Odds and Ends stamp set with Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide ink, stamped repeatedly over the background, trimmed to 3.3/4" x 5" and inked around the edges with Gathered Twigs. 
I stamped the image from Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Ticket Booth on to Simon Says Lipstick Red cardstock, inked with Versamark ink, sprinkled with White Embossing Powder and heat set. I stamped the second image on to Distress Watercolor card, coloured with Antique Linen Distress Oxide ink, inked with Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink and die-cut both using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Ticket Booth Thinlits. I attached the tickets and the Idea-ology Film Strip Ribbon in place with Tim Holtz Tiny Attacher.
I die-cut Simon Says Poppin' Corn from Distress Watercolor card, Lipstick Red and Lemon Chiffon cardstock, shaded the popcorn with Gathered Twigs Distress Oxide ink, assembled and attached to the panel with Simon Says Thin Foam Squares. I trimmed the banner from the Simple Stories Fun Times patterned paper included in the kit, fixed to a thin strip of black cardstock and added to the panel. I stamped the sentiments from Simon Says Birthday Blitz stamp set on to black cardstock, inked with Versamark ink, sprinkled with White Embossing Powder, heat set, trimmed to separate the words and popped up on Thin Foam squares to create dimension.
To finish I matted the panel on to an A2 white card blank.

Have fun with whatever you are making
