2 Interactive Toilet-Themed Cards + Simon’s Let’s Connect Blog Hop!
If the video does not display, please click here to watch on my YouTube channel. Today’s post is also part of Simon Says Stamp’s Let’s Connect blog hop! You should have arrived from my talented friend, Cathy Zielske’s blog.
I grew up with a dad who loved toilet jokes – literally – so to this day, I find anything involving the toilet hilarious! Let’s face it, I think most of us can find humor in one of life’s basic necessities, even if it can be downright awful sometimes! :) That’s why I was so excited to illustrate a series of toilet-themed products for Simon’s Let’s Connect release!
The first card I came up with features the We’re Like Toilet Paper stamp and die set, along with the Interactive Toilet die. I designed the fun, toilet paper characters to coordinate with this die so that you can use them together if you choose. The toilet lid opens, which of course means you can put something in the toilet… I chose a little poo image that is in the stamp set.
Next I used the Toilet Paper Slider die for another interactive card design! This one works great with the sentiments in the We’re Like Toilet Paper stamp set. The slider is super-easy to put together; I’ll show you how in the video at the top of this post – be sure to watch it! Behind the toilet paper is an ink blended background made with a Reverse Hearts stencil from Simon.
These new stamps and dies are part of Simon Says Stamp’s Let’s Connect release, which has a bunch more products that I designed in it, as well as some amazing stamps, dies, stencils and more! Check it out here.

Ha ha! Cute! I made my own TP roll card a couple of months ago when everybody was hoarding TP. Added the sentiment “The Lord is with you wherever you go” and embossed the roll shape to look like a TP design.
They are SO cute!!! I love these!
Wow! Thanks for the amazing inspiration! The new release is just fabulous! I especially love the beautiful background stamps and the gorgeous dies.

The toilet paper stuff is a little too much for me, Nina! Just sayin’.
Such imagination Nina! You put so much detail into the dies! I’m not normally someone who likes “potty humour”, but these really give a funny twist on the “toilet paper shortage” at the beginning of Covid 19. We all need a good giggle now & then & your stamp sets provide it. Your cards each turned out wonderfully!
Thanks for sharing these cute cards! Who would have thought that bathroom essentials could be so cute and cheerful:)
Bwahaha. Before this year, I’m not sure I would have seen quite the need for interactive toilet cards. But you nailed it!
These are too cute! Thank you Nina! I always learn something new! Thanks for sharing!
You did a wonderful job on designing these products, Nina. All the toilet related characters are just adorable, I love that little poo! Thank you so much for sharing ????.

These are so adorable. I saw a toilet paper card when the pandemic first started and I sent one to a friend who was complaining she couldn’t find the stuff anywhere. She did think it was adorable but now we have a bunch of stamps so if we start running out we can send it but I love your cards and your cute quotes. Maybe something for us to keep sending around to always remember. Thank you
