Make Magic Release

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

My first card features the Build a Xylophone die set. This die set made me smile so big because I had a play xylophone just like this when I was a child. I loved it so much with the rainbow colors.

SSS-Build a Xylophone

I used solid colored cardstock along with some metallic silver cardstock for the metal looking parts, and for the sentiment I used the Xylophone stamp set.

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

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.

Sending You Love

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.

Sending my Love

Hi there! Today I’m joining several of my talented crafty friends in an Instagram hop to wish our friend, Andy Granick, well wishes. Andy will be going through some medical issues/procedures and we want to uplift him and show him how much his crafty community cares for him. He’s not only a fabulous crafter, but he’s also the sweetest guy ever.

SSS-Layered Hills Dies, Reverse Get Well

Andy shares my love for clean, graphic and colorful cards, so I wanted to make something with him in mind. For my project I used the Layered Hills die set that my daughter, Bailey, designed several releases ago and it is still one of my favorite die sets. I used several shades of solid colored cardstock.

SSS-Layered Hills Dies, Reverse Get Well

For the sentiment I used one of the Reverse Get Well sentiment strips with the Sentiment Label dies.
