I created another fun reel over on my Instagram with this card. I’m kind of addicted to the quick format of reels. It’s a 15 second reel set to a Joan Jet classic. Never knew I could have any more fun stripping it up with cardstock then when I tried it to “I Love Rock n’ Roll”. My life has been changed!

The Dandelion die pops beautifully on the colorful strips has a bit of shimmer using glittered cardstock. Check out the Simon Says Stamp blog to see more inspiration using the May card kit HERE and you can also check out my reel HERE! Wishing you a wonderful Friday❤️
