Happy Summer everyone! Its definitely hot and sunny down here, we are eating lots of ice cream and trying to stay cool. I have two cards to share today using Simon Says stamp August Card Kit. I’ve already shared one more project and a video and you can see it by clicking on this link here.
For my Smile card you see on the left I started by stamping “aka flip flop season” and “sunny days ahead” diagonally using Simon Says Stamp Duckling ink. I just love this soft yellow color. I created a partial stamped background, foam mounted a die cut rectangle which I created using Simon’s Stitched rectangles die and added a couple of images on top. I fussy cut those out of Simple Stories Summer Vibes paper pad that was included in my kit. I also added a fun “smile” puffy sticker on top and that finished my card.
For my second project, a Happy Summer Card I created a 4 1/4 x 4 1/4 square card base and added a die cut square created using Simon’s Stitched Squares dies, I also used foam adhesive to pop it up above my card. I was going for simple shapes here so I also die cut a stitched circle, stamped Summer using Sunshine ink and added several puffy stickers around it. I foam mounted some of them for a more dynamic look.
