Hi there! Just popping in to share a clean & simple birthday project featuring the Surprise Birthday set by Simon Says Stamp.
I used the kitties from Christmas Cats and colored them with Copics. I LOVE these fun balloon images from the Surprise Party set. I stamped them using Rosie Cheeks, Maliblue & Audrey Blue ink.
I tied silver thread to the balloons and, using glossy accents, adhered them to the kitty paws.
Clean & simple, kitties & balloons…what more could you ask for? Thanks so much for stopping by & have a great week!

Hi there! Just poppin’ in to share a fun project featuring the Sunrise Border die by Simon Says Stamp.
I die cut six borders in different colors of cardstock and then trimmed them to make them a little be shorter and adhered them onto my card base, overlapping. I stamped a sentiment from Uplifting Thoughts in Versafine Onyx Black.
This is a great way to get a little more mileage out of those border dies. Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hi there! Today I have a project to share featuring the adorable February Card Kit by Simon Says Stamp called “Coffee, Tea & Cocoa”.
The star of the show here is the cutie patootie Coffee Love die that comes in the kit.
I was inspired by the fun Doodlebug Latte Love stickers that come in the February Card kit and mimicked the colors & design for my die cuts coffee cups, well, mine are actually tea cups, ha ha:)
I used the Holiday Shapes die to make the little felt hearts. I also used some Copic markers to make stripes on my coffee cup sleeve as well to add rosy cheeks and some gray for the lids. I mean, seriously, look at the teeny tiny coffee cup arms…can’t take it!
Here’s a super quick little video to show you how I made these coffee, I mean, tea cup die cuts:)
Check out the Simon Says Stamp blog to see more fabulous inspiration using this adorable February Card Kit! Thanks so much for stopping by!

Hello there! Today I’m excited to join Simon Says Stamp for a blog hop to showcase the fabulous new products in their latest Hey Love release.
My project features the Laura’s Love collection. I embossed the Love Is Background and masked off each line (I know, I’m crazy!). I wanted to emphasize each line of the wording in a fun and colorful way.
For the sentiment I used the Love 2 die along with a coordinating sentiment from the All My Love stamp set.
Here’s a video to show how I made this card.

Hello there! Today I’m sharing one last project for 2016 featuring the adorable Penguin dies by Simon Says Stamp. I was inspired by this fabulous card by Yana.
I dressed up the cute penguins for a New Year’s party using the Cuddly Critter Accessories. Then I used Big Numbers and Happy Christmas for the sentiment.
Don’t think you can go wrong with googly eyes, party hats & balloons, right?
Thank you so very much for all your love & support in 2016! I am looking forward to the new year and all that it holds…Happy New Year, friends♥
