Simon Says Stamp Shine On Release Blog Hop | Flat Shaker Cards with Fun Fish

June 26, 2026June 26, 2026 by nicholspohr

Welcome to the Simon Says Stamp Shine On Release Blog Hop! Today I’m sharing two colorful flat shaker cards featuring brand-new products from the Shine On Release paired with a few favorite previously released Simon Says Stamp sentiment stamps/die products. In today’s reel, I am demonstrating how to create flat shaker cards, share a fun twist on the blackout embossing folder technique without using black ink, and show how inking directly onto colored cardstock die cuts can add depth and dimension while building a playful underwater scene. Be sure to leave a comment before continuing along the blog hop for your chance to win a $25 Simon Says Stamp coupon!
