Simon Says Stamp Scalloped Hello Card and September Card Kit Winner!

Hi everyone!

 I'm stopping by today to announce the winner of the Simon Says Stamp September 2015 Card Kit and to share a card using some of Simon's latest release.

First, I had a question from Deborah about the camera paper I used on THIS CARD. Unfortunately it's from a past collection from My Mind's Eye called Chalk Studio that I don't think is available anymore.


Now for the winner of the September Card Kit...


Shona Chambers who said...
Just love how you used the patterned papers, they are so gorgeous in this kit! And you can never have enough Glossy Accents!!!

Congrats, Shona! Please email me via my side bar with your shipping info so I can pass it on to Simon Says Stamp.

 Finally, here's the card I made to share today (which just happens to use the Simon Says Stamp cardstock colours featured in the September Card Kit):

For this card I used the largest of Simon's new Wavy Scallop Stitches Dies along with Simon's Doll Pink, Cotton Candy, Mint, and Audrey Blue cardstocks to create my card front, inlaying the scalloped pieces. I then die cut Simon's Painted Hello Die from some Neenah Solar White Cardstock and adhered it in place. I finished the card up with some of Lucy Abrams gorgeous Shaker Selections: Lipstick, Flamingo, and Phosphorescence.

Finally, I covered the hearts using a Sakura Stardust Clear Glitter Pen.

Yes Let's Celebrate... (& Simon Says Stamp September Card Kit GIVEAWAY)!

Hi everyone,

 I'm popping by to share another card made using the fun new Simon Says Stamp September 2015 Card Kit: 



This month's kit includes a number of fun products including Simon's new Birthday Bits Stamp Set, PinkFresh Studio Happy Things Acetate Cards, Dina Wakley Ranger White Gesso Tube, and Simon's Playful Circles stencil which is exclusie to the kit. It also includes some of Simon's great cardstocks!

 Here's the card I came up with for today:

I was completely inspired by the black and white patterned paper that came in this month's kit. Lately I've been colouring printable patterns designed for grown ups to colour as a means of destressing so when I saw this paper I couldn't help myself. I die cut a panel using the stitched rectangle from Simon's Bundle of Stitches Dies and pulled out my Copics. Once coloured, I added the panel to my notecard on an angle, adhered one of the PinkFresh Studio Happy Things Acetate Cards on top, and stamped the rest of the sentiment and stars from Simon's Birthday Bits Stamp Set. Again, I had planned on using Stazon Black Ink for my stamping but my ink has dried out and I need to buy a refill. The Archival Ink seems to be holding up ok but if I really rub it with my finger it does smear slightly.
