blog hop and giveaway


This month Simon has a really fun card kit featuring a great new exclusive Simon Says stamp set PLUS a random assortment of twelve 6x6 papers from Amy Tangerine's NEW "Cut & Paste" collection! plus...plus...plus a full roll of the new Kelly Purkey Ledger washi tape & some other goodies to get those creative juices flowing!


There are 3 different sets of 12 Amy Tangerine Cut and Paste papers and each kit will have one of the three sets. 
There is also an assortment of camera wood icons, so they will vary in each kit as well.
Did you know that you can subscribe to Simon Says Stamp’s monthly card kits for just $19.95 plus S&H every month!?  The kits are an incredible value! It's a happy day when I get my box in the mail!

Let's get started with CARD NUMBER ONE:
The card kits from Simon never disappoint and they always have a rocking stamp set. Did you know I love to STAMP. Stamp some white Unicorn Ink with the, "Love This" stamp set on this velvety vellum and it makes any card elegant. 
SUPPLIES FOR CARD #1

CARD NUMBER TWO:
I took advantage of the holes in the paper pad called, "Cut & Paste" when I designed this card. The "Thanks" die cut was flipped in the Robin's Egg paper for a minor detail. Feathers can enhance any card. These were distressed down the middle and my favorite Rock Candy was added to the feathers.

SUPPLIES FOR CARD #2


CARD NUMBER THREE:
This background is one sheet of paper from the "Cut & Paste".(papers vary in this card kit) So much fun to whip up a fast card. I did add the banner at the bottom and the stamped the "Birthday" . The tree was die cut TWICE to give the tree more layers and I distressed the edges. Rock Candy was added for shine and it gives the paper more body. I used Glossy Accents on the star atop the tree and poured on some speciality glitter. 

SUPPLIES FOR CARD #3.
