Have the Best Day Ever

Hi there and happy Friday! Popping in to share a fun card using the sweet little Dandelion die from the latest May Card Kit by Simon Says Stamp.

I added some colorful strips of solid colored cardstock to create the background panel and for the sentiment I used the Narwhal Friends stamp set.

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❤️
