Simon Says Stamp Die-cember 2017 Release




I LOVE dies, so I'm super excited that Simon Says Stamp's Die-cember release
is here! They kindly sent me a die to play with--Sensational Snowflakes--and I managed
to create a colorful card with it.



I was trying to channel Yoonsun and the way she adds watercoloring to her
diecut images. I cut out several snowflakes and adhered them to a watercolor
card, then pounced on some Distress inks and went over them with a waterbrush.

The sentiment was cut from glittery green card stock and adhered to the card
and finished off with sequins.

Visit the Simon Says Stamp Store to see the entire Die-cember release!
Happy shopping!

Simon Says Stamp Corbel Heart


Simon Says Stamp graciously sent me this gorgeous new die during their Die-Cember 
release and I finally found some time to share a card with it, before the year's end. 
The die is called Corbel Heart--an exclusive design to Simon Says Stamp.

https://www.simonsaysstamp.com/product/Simon-Says-Stamp-CORBEL-HEART-Wafer-Die-S412-Diecember-S412/1435

 I used Peerless watercolors and painted a piece of watercolor card stock in ombré
colors and adhered it to a gray card base. A panel was cut from a stitched panel and
the heart was die cut in the center. I popped up the heart over the colored piece, and
 added the die cut sentiment underneath.



The card was finished off with a few sequins on the heart, and twine tied on the side.
You can find the Corbel Heart die here in the Simon Says Stamp store. It's the perfect
heart design for just about any occasion.

 Big thanks to Simon Says Stamp for letting me play with this beautiful die, and
thanks to all of you for visiting throughout the year and leaving such sweet comments!
I hope you all have a safe and Happy New Year!

Sending Lots of Love


Have you seen Simon Says Stamp's Die-cember collection?
They came out with exclusive new wafer dies and I received an adorable
mailbox die set to play with called Send My Love.

The mailbox diecut is actually closed, but I opened it up by using a contrasting
card stock color for the inside of the mailbox. All the pieces, including the sentiment,
were cut from scraps of card stock. I grounded the mailbox with a patch of
grassy border, and the two part sentiment is from an older SSS set.


I adhered all of the pieces to a rectangle scalloped panel then mounted onto a
card base with dimensional adhesive. I love how this card turned out!
In hindsight--are those hearts of love escaping even before they were sent?
Hmmmm.........

You'll find this die and many more exclusive designs in the 
Simon Says Stamp store.
