Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of projects using the amazing new Make Magic Release by Simon Says Stamp. You can check out the new products HERE!

SSS-Build a Xylophone, Rainy Days, Sunburst die

Also, have I mentioned over here that Emma got a puppy for her birthday? She sure did. She wanted to name him after her grandpa Hank. He is the cutest thing and brings so much joy to our family. Needless to say, I haven’t made a card in a week. I feel like I just had a newborn baby. Wishing you a wonderful day. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Garden Greetings

June 30, 2021

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a project using some of the latest Garden Greetings Card Kit by Simon Says Stamp.

SSS-Garden Greetings, Big Scripty Hugs

To begin I created a circle window frame using one of the Nested Circle dies into white carstock. Then on the panel behind I adhered strips of solid colored cardstock. I stamped the swag image from Garden Greetings that is included in the card kit with versamark ink for a fun tone on tone look.

SSS-Garden Greetings, Big Scripty Hugs

For the sentiment I used the Big Scripty Hugs die that is also included in the card kit. I used vellum and gold metallic cardstock. I popped up the panel onto a Fog base and added some bubbles for embellishments.

Hi there! Yesterday I shared this project over on the Simon Says Stamp blog. I stripped up some solid colored cardstock and created a double window frame using vellum and the Nested Circle Dies. For the sentiment I used the Spring Bouquets stamp set and for the foliage I embossed images from the Birthday Seedlings set in white onto vellum.
