Happy Circles
August 23, 2023Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of cards where I played with my circle dies to create these fun, geometric patterns.
For this first one I used the smallest Nested Circle Die and repeatedly die cut it nine times onto a panel of Slate cardstock. I used one of the Geometric Builder Circle Dies to die cut the solid colored cardstock to adhere behind the openings. For the sentiment I used one of the Reverse Grateful and Thankful Sentiment Strips.
I was inspired by this Happy Circles print from Society6.
I wanted to try another version and mimic similar colors in the print above.
This time I created a square 5.5″ x 5.5″ card. My panel is out of Soft Navy and the sentiment is from the Bold Mom Sentiment Strips. The Pawsitively Everything 6 inch T Square Ruler helps a ton to get the circles straight and even.
I don’t think I will tire of colorful geometric patterns. Thanks so much for stopping by!

New Distress Halloween-Glow Grit Paste!
August 5, 2023
Hi there! Today I have a project to share featuring a couple of the new Distress Halloween products by Tim Holtz. I was so intrigued by the Glow Grit Paste and couldn’t wait to try it.
For my project I used the Grit Glow Paste with the Dimensional Stars Stencil on Slate Cardstock. It is INCREDIBLE when it glows!! I spritzed some Twilight Mica Stain on white cardstock and die cut it with a Nested Circle Die to create a sort of large “planet”. The rest of the images and sentiments are from the You are My Universe Set.
Make sure and check out all of these new products over at Simon Says Stamp. Also check out Tim Holtz’s Live demoing these amazing, new products and sharing so much incredible inspiration. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Retro Wishes
July 31, 2023Hi there! Today I’m sharing a simple, rainbow shaker card using the Retro Wishes Stamp Set that is included in the August Card Kit by Simon Says Stamp.
To stamp the rainbow I used Peony, Cantaloupe, Lemonade, Celery & Marine Pawsitively Saturated Inks. I used the coordinating Retro Wishes dies to create a shaker window and filled it with clear sequins. For the sentiment I used the CZ Basic Trio die with Matte Gold cardstock.
Check out the Simon Says Stamp blog for more inspiration using the August Card Kit. Thanks so much for stopping by!
Just a Note Blog Hop!
July 28, 2023
Hi there! Today I’m joining Simon Says Stamp for their Just a Note Release Blog Hop! You can check out all of the fun, new products HERE!
Both of my projects feature the Citrus Slice Background die. There are so many things you can do with this die to create unique looks. Here I used solid colored cardstock and made rainbow slices for a kaleidoscope of color.
I also used the CZ Just a Note word die for both cards with vellum and matte gold cardstock.
For this card I blended Pawsitively Saturated inks behind the open die cut slices and popped up the panel for a fun, shadow. I embellished both cards with clear sequins.
Here is a video showing how I made the first card.
