Simon Says Stamp | Hopping By to Say Hello

Hello there and happy Saturday to you! Today I have a card to share using the new Token Terrarium Stamp Set from the Simon Says Stamp Always There May 2026 release. This is a really fun set! There is a terrarium and you can add all kinds of plants, trees and rocks inside, as well as a cute frog/toad. You can use the images without the terrarium too!

PLEASE NOTE: This post contains affiliate links. Please see below for my full disclosure.



I started off by stamping the frog from the Simon Says Stamp Token Terrarium Stamp Set onto a panel of white cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink. I then stamped it again onto Altenew Masking Paper and fussy cut it out. I removed the backing off the masking paper and adhered it over the stamped image. 


I then repeated the process for the rocks, followed by the plants and then finally stamped the terrarium on top. I removed the masks and coloured it using Copic Markers, adding in a little Polychromos Pencils in some areas. I also used pencils to create the reflections on the glass of the terrarium (white and aqua) and added white gel pen highlights. 


The image was then fussy cut out using scissors. I took a white A2 sized card base and added scoring lines on to the front panel using a scoring board and bone folder. These are difficult to see in the photos but do add a nice extra detail in real life! I wrapped black twine around the front panel and tied in a bow at the front. 


The terrarium was adhered on top with thin foam tape. I stamped the sentiment from the Simon Says Stamp Token Terrarium Stamp Set onto black cardstock using Versamark Ink. I applied white embossing powder and heat set. It was cut into two strips using the Simon Says Stamp Sentiment Labels Dies and adhered to the card using black foam tape.
