Love Blog Hop

Hi there! Today I’m excited to join Simon Says Stamp for their Love Release Blog Hop! You can check out the fantastic new Love Release HERE.
SSS-Streaming Heart dieI have a couple of project to share featuring the Streaming Heart die.
SSS-Streaming Heart & Take Card diesI blended Candied Apple, Spiced Marmalade & Squeezed Lemonade on a panel of Neenah Solar White cardstock and then ran it through with the Streaming Heart Die. For the sentiment I used the Take Care die and adhered it using the Quickie Glue Pen.
SSS-Streaming Heart & Take Card diesNext I created a Valentines shaker using the same Streaming Heart die.
SSS-Streaming Heart & Love dieI blended Candied Apple, Picked Raspberry & Wilted Violet on the panel and filled the shaker with the gorgeous Iridescent Heart Confetti Mix by Pretty Pink Posh. I used the Love 2 die for the sentiment along with an embossed sentiment from the All My Love stamp set.
SSS-Streaming Heart & Love dieHere’s a video to show you how I created these projects.
Giveaway!
