SSS May Card Kit: Love and Thanks & GIVEAWAY!

Hi everyone!


I'm back to share a couple more cards featuring the Simon Says Stamp May Card Kit


For today's cards I wanted to focus on creating Alcohol Pearl Ink backgrounds using both the White Yupo Paper and Tim Holtz Silver Sparkle Alcohol Ink Paper. For this first card I used the Tranquil and Sublime Alcohol Inks on the White Yupo Paper. Once dry, I diecut the paper with the rectangle from Simon's Bundle of Stitches Set and adhered it to a notecard made from Simon's 120 lb White Cardstock. I white heat embossed the sentiment from the Delicate Fowers Stamp Set on a strip of Simon's Green Leaf Cardstock and added it to the card above a piece of the Carta Bella Flower Bouquet Washi Tape. I finished the card off with a few diecut hearts from Simon's Holiday Shapes Die Set



I used the same techniques for my second card but with the Tim Holtz Silver Sparkle Alcohol Ink Paper, Intrigue and Tranquil Alcohol Pearl Inks, and Simon's Cotton Candy Cardstock.
