SSS August Card Kit: Boy / Girl Pandas & GIVEAWAY!

Hi everyone!

I'm stopping by to share a second card featuring the Simon Says Stamp August Card Kit: Party Like a Panda.

Here it is:

I love the bright happy patterns of the Doodlebug papers exclusive to this month's card kit and wanted to include lots of them on one card. I die cut the papers with one of Simon's Nested Circle Dies. I also die cut Simon's Picture Book Panda Die twice each from the Thermoweb Black Velvet and White Latte Flock Transfer Sheets. I pieced the pandas together on two of the circles giving the boy a bow tie and the girl a bow for her hair, colouring over the bows with the the Spectrum Noir Clear Sparkle Marker. Finally, I adhered the the circles to a piece of Simon Says Stamp Black Cardstock added to the front of an A2 notecard. I like that this card could be used to celebrate either boy/girl twins or a love-related occasion.

SSS August Card Kit: Birthday Panda & GIVEAWAY!

Hi everyone!

Sorry I've been missing in action. It's been a busy few weeks getting school mostly finished up, taking kids to work, VBS, etc, etc. Also, my Simon Says Stamp August Card Kit: Party Like a Panda took it's time crossing the border this time and when it showed up it had last month's stamp set in it, lol. The correct one is on its way to me (because Simon is awesome like that) but I've gone ahead and created my cards to share without it. 

I'm sure you've all seen the fun panda-themed SSS August Card Kit by now. I love the adorable panda stamps and die and the bright, vibrant colours of the exclusive Doodlebug Pattern Papers and Simon Cardstock.

Here's the first card I'm sharing:

I cut a piece of the Doodlebug patterned paper to fit the background of my card. I then created a frame with Simon's Stitched Rectangle Dies and their 120 LB Cardstock before cutting the balloon paper to fit behind it. I adhered these to my card front with foam tape. Next, I diecut Simon's Picture Book Panda from the Thermo Web Black Velvet and White Latte Flock Flock Transfer Sheets, piecing him together in the frame. I added a patterned paper party hat with a sequin top to his cute little head. Finally, I stamped a sentiment from the Simon Says Stamp Tiny Words Birthday Stamp Set (sold seperately) with Versafine Onyx Black Ink on a banner I made with a piece of the Doodlebug patterned paper, adhering the middle part with foam tape.

Simon Says Stamp Diecut Alphabet Patterned Backgrounds

Hi everyone,

I hope you're having a great week! I'm popping by today to share a couple of masculine cards I made with Simon Says Stamp's Rounded Alphabet Dies and Tiny Words Birthday Stamps. I used the Rounded Alphabet Dies to create my own patterned backgrounds for these cards. Yes. It took quite a bit of time BUT I diecut a number of different letters in different colours at the same time so I could make 4 or 5 cards total. (I still have some diecut letters I need to play around with). Also, I had fun and as a bonus I got to use up some cardstock scraps.

Anyways, here are the results:

I can't wait to play around with more letters and see what designs I come up with.
