Hi there! The new Hello Gorgeous release with Simon Says Stamp just went live and I have a couple of projects to share featuring several of these fun, new products!

My first card features the Stained Glass Cross die. I die cut all of the rays with solid colored cardstock and used one of the new Reverse Easter Sentiment Strips for the sentiment.

My second card uses the Stained Glass Sun die. I filled in each of the sun ray segments with solid colored cardstock.

Hi there! Yesterday kicked off Day 1 of the 5 Days in 5 Ways series with Simon Says Stamp.

For You

February 27, 2022

Hi there! Today I’m sharing a colorful, geometric project featuring the Geometric Builder Circles die set. These Geometric Builder dies never, ever stop bringing me joy.

Geometric Builder Circles, All About You

I die cut several solid circles and adhered half & quarter circles over top using lighter shades of cardstock to create a unique visual appearance of a square in the center.

For the sentiment I used the All About You stamp & die set.

My inspiration came from this gorgeous quilt. I find so much inspiration from quilting. I wish I could quilt like this.
