On Wednesday, Simon Says Stamp released a gorgeous new collection of stamps, dies and accessorises and today they are celebrating that release with a fun blog hop. I chose to work with two new products: the lovely Clouds Dies, and the Pattern Swatches stamps.
To make my card, I first die cut some clouds from glitter paper, then die cut a large Stitched Rectangle from white card. I stamped a sentiment from I See You, then adhered the clouds above it. Next, I die cut a Painted Hugs from white card, then stamped the tiny polka dots from the Pattern Swatches set onto it with Spring Rain Ink. I inked the edges of the die cut with more Spring Rain ink, then adhered to the clouds with foam tape. Finally, I adhered the white panel to a Hero Arts notecard.
This post is part of the Simon Says Stamp Reason to Smile Blog Hop. You should have arrived from Heather Hoffman's blog. If not, head to the Simon Says Stamp blog to start at the beginning.
