Hello crafty friends! Today I am sharing a project using some of the wonderful products from the Simon Says Stamp In My Heart release to create a fun Easter card. Card Base: Top folding A2 size card base made from white cardstock. Background: Background panel cut from Seashell cardstock . Then I cut a panel using the Teardrop Pinpoint frame die . I ink blended a sky and grass scene with distress ink and a sponge dauber. Focal Point: I cut the Jaunty Stems out of white cardstock and ink blended them with distress ink. I cut out the Garden Fence and Gate die from more white cardstock and added a bit of distress to the gate pieces. I used a brown copic marker to color the hinges and handle. This is an amazing release and I hope you got some inspiration. I have listed all the supplies I used for this project below for your convenience. Thank you for stopping by! Supplies:

You can decide which way you would like to try! I had a lot of fun creating each one. This first technique I used is to stamp the Gerbera Daisy background stamp onto watercolor cardstock using white embossing powder. I heat se the stamped image then trimmed it down to fit an A2 size card base. Then I used distress inks and a waterbrush to add color to each daisy for a whimsical watercolor look.  I used one bow dies from the new Little Bow die set cut from red cardstock to add as a focal point for my sentiment which was stamped in red ink. To add shine I added clear sticky...

Hello crafty friends! I am happy to share a project featuring the Apple Blossoms embossing folder from the new Simon Says Stamp In My Heart release . This folder was so beautiful that I couldn't help but make two projects. This folder would be perfect for just about any occasion. It would make an absolute gorgeous Mother's Day card. This was a very simple card to create. I took a quarter sheet of thick white cardstock and ran it through the embossing folder. It left a very defined impression that was so easy to color with either copic markers or even to watercolor would be fun.  I just used three copic colors for the blossoms and two copic colors to color the leaves. I will list them in the supply list. I wrapped gold twine around the embossed and colored panel after I trimmed it down a bit to fit on an A2 size card base to leave a white border. The sentiment is from my stash that I stamped in clear ink and heat embossed with gold embossing powder. This is an amazing release a...
