Hello everyone! I'm popping in to share two cards that I made with a die from the new Simon Says Stamp Hello Gorgeous release. SSS was so kind and sent me the fun Stained Glass Sun die to create with. You can find the full release right here. (Affiliate links used where possible.

For the first card I created a clean and simple shaker. I have some fun patterned papers that feature rainbows, suns and lots of bright colors. If you look closely at the patterned paper behind the shaker window you can see it has little suns on it! I filled my shaker with seed beads in white and silver, as well as clear and white sequins. The sentiment is from the Simon Says Stamp Sunshine Flowers stamp set and was stamped in a fun bright yellow ink. I'm going to add this to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge because I do love to make a shaker card!
For the second card I used more of the patterned paper and did some stenciling with stencil butter. How fun is that paper? I just love it!
For this card I decided to use the Stained Glass Sun die to create a stencil. First attempt didn't work out. With the second attempt I decided to use vellum and then used Pixie Spray. That worked better, but I created a problem for myself when I added glitter to the yellow Stencil Butter that I used. It stuck everywhere, lol! Thank goodness I had an oval die that I could use to cut out the stenciled sunburst. You can see a little bit of the glitter around the edges. I die cut the patterned paper, adhered it to a bright pink cardstock base, add the stenciled oval and the added the die cut sentiment. The sentiment was made with two different Simon Says Stamp dies: Hello and Sunshine. I'm going to add this to the challenge at Global Design Project. Their challenge is a theme one: rainbows! I think I have that covered, lol!
Make sure you check out the Hello Gorgeous release. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
I had a similar problem with a vellum stencil I attached with Pixie Spray & then used ep. Love that spray as long as you're just inking. Really fun papers & cards, Rosemary! That stencil butter looks so cool for the sun & love all the pretty colors! Very creative use of that die for both cards!
ReplyDeleteTwo great cards with that die, Rosemary!! Just love the shaker but the glittery sun on card two with the rainbow paper really made me smile!!
