Simon Says ,,,,, Have a Heart :-)

Hi all :-) I am still in the UK visiting family and friends in the UK but I will be heading home soon :-)

Long post ,,,,, get coffee :-)

This week the theme on the Simon Says Stamp Challenge is ,,,,,,,,

HAVE A HEART :-)

As always Heidi will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store!
We are showcasing our very own Simon Says Stamp Exclusives this week, you don't have to use them, but if you have them we would love to see them  :-)


I made 2 cards today,,, I just LOVE the new Simon Says Stamp Valentine 2013 release stamps and dies and have used several on these along with papers and products in the February Card Kit ‘Style of Love’

First up ,,, I Love You

089

I used the gorgeous Curvy Heart Die 

089-001

I die cut the lovely paper and then adhered acetate to the back of it and then adhered the die cut pieces in place using glossy accents.  I used a Small Folded Banner Die and the sentiments are from a Just a Love Note Clear Stamp Set.

092

I finished with some small hearts cut using a Holiday Shapes Die and a button which was in the kit and some embroidery floss which was in the January Card Kit.

Next up ,,, Happy Love Mail 

106

I used the gorgeous Falling Hearts Die to cut the lovely pink card and layered it onto Hero Arts Kraft paper, I used a doily and fab little envelope from the February Kit and added die cut hearts using a Large Hearts Die Set, finishing with a cute button and embroidery floss. The sentiment is also from the same Just a Love Note Stamp Set and I added a few gorgeous wood veneer hearts which are also in the kit :-)

I made the card base using Simon Says Stamp 120lb White Cardstock, I used this to die cut the Curvy Snowflake too. I stamped the small snowflakes and inked the punched and die cut snowflakes with Walnut Stain Distress Ink, The twine is from a Hemptique Mini Pack and I added an Enamel Dot from a My Mind’s Eye Winter Wonderland pack.

I also made one using Peacock Feathers Distress Ink
