SSS I Love You Friend Card & April Card Kit Winner

Hi everyone,

I'm popping by to share a card I made using (mostly) leftover pieces from previously made cards. 

Before I do, here is the winner of the Simon Says Stamp April 2017 Card Kit: Wild and Colorful:


Congrats to Marianne who said...

Delightful cards, and I love how you've created the same look using two different techniques. Thanks for showing us another way to stretch our supplies.

Marianne, please message me via the side bar with your mailing info so I can pass it on to the wonderful folks at Simon Says Stamp.

Here's today's card:


This design was a great way to use up a bunch of little hearts from previous projects and would work well with little stars or flowers too.

Thanks for stopping by!

SSS April Card Kit: Baby Cards (& Giveaway)

Hi everyone! 

I'm stopping by to share a couple of baby cards featuring the adorable Simon Says Stamp April 2017 Card Kit: Wild and Colorful. 

Both of these cards have the same look and used the same technique but started out with different bases: one colored and one white.



The blue card was the first of the two I made. I white heat embossed the images on Simon's Island Blue Cardstock. I then took a Mini Ink Blending Tool and Simon's White Pigment Ink and added white to the bottom of the panel, easing up on the colour as I moved up to center of the card.



This second card was made after I had taken pictures of the first one and started my blog post. I realized that even though the April Card Kit didn't include any pink or red cardstock it did include a deep pink/ light red ink. So... I started this card with a white card base, white heart embossed the images, and applied Simon's Watermelon Hybrid Ink beginning at the top and easing off as I worked my way down.


For both cards I die cut letters from Simon's Alphabet Blocks Dies to spell 'baby', adhering them to Simon's Island Blue Cardstock for the baby boy card and a piece of inked up Neenah Solar White Cardstock for the baby girl card. These sentiment panels were then adhered to the cards with Foam Tape.

I coloured the sweet animals with Copic Markers and gave them all Googly Eyes.

The blue frame was cut from Simon's Island Blue Cardstock while the others were cut from Neenah Solar White Cardstock and inked up with Simon's Fresh Fruit Hybrid Ink Cube Set.

Here are the animals in action:
