My Impressions: SSS August Card Kit: You Are Incredible (& Giveaway)

Hi everyone!

I'm back with another card featuring the fabulous Simon Says Stamp August 2017 Card Kit: Together!

Here it is:

I used Simon's You + Me Stamp Set, my MISTI, and various Distress Oxide Inks on Simon's Slate Gray Cardstock to create my background. I then used the Tsukineko Large Sparkle Sheer Shimmer Spritz to brighten the ink colours (they react with water) and add some shimmer. The sentiment (from the same stamp set) was heat embossed with the WOW Cloud 9 Embossing Powder on some of the yummy marble paper from Pinkfresh Live More Papers. Finally, I added a few of the Pinkfresh Studio Live More Puff Stickers.

If you're interested, you can pick up the Simon Says Stamp August Card Kit for just $29.99 + shipping. If you'd like to receive this kit and future kits for only $24.95 + shipping per month, you can SUBSCRIBE HERE.

Heidi, owner of Simon Says Stamp, has given me an extra Simon Says Stamp August Card Kit to pass on to one of you! Just leave a comment on any or all of my August 2017 Card Kit posts and I'll announce a winner Friday, July 28th.

Thanks for stopping by,

Sarah
