To Be Loved Release

January 9, 2025

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a couple of projects featuring some of the new To Be Loved release by Simon Says Stamp.

My first card uses the Pinnacle Hearts embossing folder. First I adhered strips of solid colored cardstock to a panel and then ran it through the embossing folder to give the heart texture. I stamped and embossed a sentiment from Always and Forever and adhered it to a shimmer vellum heart using the Lined Heart die set. For embellishment I used some of the Conversation Hearts Embellishment Mix.

SSS-Always and Forever, Pinnacle Hearts, Lined Heart

This next card uses the leftover strips with the Lined Heart die. For the background I used the Dancing Floral embossing folder. For the sentiment I used the Always and Forever set again.

CASE-ing a card with Michelle Lupton

December 23, 2024

Hi there! Today I’m joining my crafty friend Michelle for her CASE me a Christmas Card series. I have to admit upfront. My card is not anything close to a Christmas card so I’m choosing to call this CASE me a card at Christmas time, lol.

Below is Michelle’s card that inspired me. I love how she added that strip of color leaving the edges of the blooms white. You can find her blog post HERE.

Here is my card inspired by Michelle’s. I used the Tumbling Flowers Stencil & Embossing Folder along with the CZ Scripty Hugs die for the sentiment.

SSS-Tumbling Flower, CZ Scripty Hugs

Here is a video showing how I created my card.
