Hi there! Today I’m joining Simon Says Stamp for a Friends release blog hop. This is the second day so be sure and check out Day 1 for more amazing inspiration showcasing the Friends release.
I have a couple of projects featuring the Cosmo & Mum Flower Frame dies.
I blended distress inks on the background of each card using distress & oxide inks.
I embossed the sentiments in white onto a strip of black cardstock using the Many Thanks stamp set.
Here’s a video to show you how I created these cards.
Giveaway!
Simon Says Stamp is giving away a $25 coupon to every stop on the hop. Winners will be posted on the Simon Says Stamp store blog on Wednesday.

Heidi Johnson
January 13, 2018 at 1:40 pmI liked your video because it gave not only the preferred way but also the trial way of doing the cards. I get a little intimidated when the video shows the perfect card being flawlessly made and then when I try it, there is always something that goes wrong. Kinda hard on the old ego, if you know what I mean.

ambecoming
January 13, 2018 at 1:43 pmSo yummy and gorgeous! For some reason, the warm tones seem like sherbet to me–maybe because the temperature keeps dropping today!
