Simon Says Stamp Rain or Shine release blog hop - day 2

I'm so happy to be participating in day 2 of the Simon Says Stamp Rain or Shine release blog hop.  I am sharing 3 projects for the blog hop today!  
Special offer for this blog hop! Just follow the steps 👇👇to receive your free gift with a $23 purchase to celebrate Simon's 23rd anniversary!
My first project features the new Pretty Poppies dies. I cut them from white cardstock and colored them with Copic markers, Y21, Y26, R21, R22, E57 and G94.
Next I created this fun Easter card using the new Peeking Rabbit die and Bouncy Happy Easter die cut from white cardstock. I also used the new Stacked Blooms embossing folder for the background that I colored with copic markers.
For this last project I created an amazing background using the new Argyle Builder stencil set. I added color to the background by using Pawsitively Saturated ink and silver texture paste. 
Simon is also giving away a $25 shopping spree to a lucky winner! The winner will be picked from the comments left along the hop. Each comment you leave will be an entry into the drawing.

I'm so happy to be sharing inspiration for the STAMPtember blog party! Happy 15th anniversary!! Check out this exclusive promotion for stopping by today!!👇👇 I have created a couple of projects to share using some of the amazing goodies from the new Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember release. I created this card with an A2 card base made from smooth white cardstock. I then trimmed down a panel of Yupo paper to create an autumnal background using alcohol inks. When it was dry I trimmed it down to fit the card base leaving a bit of a white border. I then die cut a frame from white cardstock and added to the card with liquid glue. I then die cut the new Fancy Just Because die from more white cardstock. The butterflies were cut from matte gold cardstock using the new Ooh La La Butterflies die and adhered with a glue dot in the middle so their wings could pop up. The next project I made also began with an A2 size card base made from smooth white paper. I then trimmed down another piece of...

I'm so happy to be sharing inspiration for the Simon Says Stamp DieCember blog party! Be sure to take advantage of the  exclusive promotion for this blog party👇👇  I'm one of those rare people that begins to decorate for Christmas until after Thanksgiving. Using the new Ornate Star die I created ornaments for my little flocked Christmas tree. I feel like I could make a dozen of these easily! I die cut the Ornate Star die once from gold cardstock and once from silver cardstock. I then glued the die cut stars on to silver and gold glitter paper. I weighted it with a large acrylic block to help the stars adhered firmly to the glitter cardstock. When the adhesive was dry I used a craft knife to cut out the stars from the glitter cardstock. I then die cut the Merry Christmas sentiment from red metallic cardstock and white cardstock and adhered together for thickness and glued them carefully to the stars as to not have a glob of glue mess up the shine of the metallic cardstock. I...
