Miss You

April 30, 2024

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a card using some die cut scraps that I’ve had laying around. When I do reveal videos for Simon Says Stamp I often have several die cut samples left over in piles that just lay there for months. They are too pretty to throw away, but I often don’t take time to use them. Today I finally did it! I used my scraps. It makes you feel so nifty and thrifty, lol.

SSS-Aurora Blooms, Daisy Oval Frame, CZ Hi There Greetings

The blooms are from the Aurora Blooms die set. This is such a gorgeous floral die set. I also had a couple of leaf die cuts from the Leafy Sprig that worked perfectly. I used a couple of enamel dots for the centers. For the frame I used a die cut from the Daisy Oval Frame. For the sentiment I embossed the “miss you” in gold onto white from the CZ Hi There Greetings.

I love how this came together from leftovers. Somehow it makes me feel like I’ve just saved money. Should I go buy myself something know, ha ha. Isn’t that what they call “girl math”? That’s what my daughters tell me. I need an interpreter! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Celebrate Release

April 17, 2024

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of projects using the fun, new Celebrate release by Simon Says Stamp.

SSS-CZ Grad Cover Plate

My first card features the CZ Grad Cover Plate. This is such a clean and simple grad idea that can have so many different looks. For this card I inlaid the solid colored cardstock into the teal background and added holographic cardstock for the grad cap.

My next card uses the Build a Taco die. For the taco shell I used Latte ink to add the subtle shading and solid colored cardstock for the all the taco filling.

SSS-Build a Taco, Taco Bout It

I added some strips of cardstock for a colorful background and embossed a sentiment from Taco Bout It. I also added a few new Starshine sequins for embellishment.
