Happy new week, friends! The July 2021 Simon Says Stamp card kit, Garden Greetings, is here!!!! Today I'm sharing this embossed background inked with SSS Fog Gray ink while embossed and then the raised areas colored in with Copic Markers. This is a similar technique to the embossed cards I shared with the new Rainbows Release, only those were colored with Zig Clean Color Real Brush Markers. Check out those cards HERE. I love this technique!
The patterned papers, cardstocks, stamped greeting, die cut greeting, embossing folder, envelope, and adhesive for this beauty all come from the kit!!!

Neenah White Cardstock from the kit was trimmed to 3 3/4" x 5". The Simon Says Stamp Blossom Field Embossing Folder was inked with SSS Fog Gray ink, the paper placed in the embossing folder, and run through a die cutting machine using the embossing sandwich. This give the solid areas of the background a bit of color. For a more dramatic look, use a darker ink color!
The raised areas of the design were colored with the following Copic Marker color combinations:
- Yellow Flowers: Y000, Y02, Y15, Y38
- Purple Flowers & Buds: BV31, BV34
- Leaves and Stems: G20, G24, G28
- Other Leaves: YG93, YG97
The text design Paper Rose Forever 6x6 Paper was trimmed to 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" and adhered to a white top fold card base. The embossed and colored panel was adhered to the center of the text paper.
The Simon Says Stamp Big Scripty Hugs Die was die cut from a Paper Rose Forever 6x6 Paper and black cardstock, adhered one on top of another, and adhered to the background as shown.
A phrase from the Simon Says Stamp Garden Greetings Stamp Set was stamped on smooth white cardstock with SSS Willow Ink, die cut with a Sentiment Labels Die, and adhered to the card with foam adhesive.
