Kit to Cards featuring Simon Says Stamp April Card Kit

By Cards

Hi all,

For this project, I wanted to challenge myself into using a good portion of a card kit to see just how many cards I could make. I have been a long time subscriber to the Simon Says Stamp card kit and love the quality of products they include in those kits. I wanted to dive into this month’s kit and create some cards to share with you. As I state in the video, there are a TON of supplies left over and this is just a few of the cards I created. Working with a kit is great in that you really don’t have to worry about coordinating colors and patterns — that part is already done for you!

You may wonder how long it took me to create these cards? I created these over the course of 3 days and had about 6 hours of footage to work through. A majority of that time was spent brainstorming, and clearly, I have edited that down to a shorter video for you!

Here’s a look at 10 cards I made. Enjoy!

Hang In There

By Cards

Hi All,

I’m back with a super fun and simple card. For this card I featured some of the diecuts from the Basic Grey “what’s up” collection. There’s something I absolutely love about aqua’s and reds mixed together. I thought the combination was so bright and playful. I took the banners from the collection and pierced some holes in the corners so that I could thread in some string. I finished it with a few wooden button embellishments and wahla!

Happy Birthday Balloon

By Cards

Hi all,

I don’t know why, but I’ve been on such a hot air balloon kick lately with my cards. I think is my favorite! I’ve been getting into the practice of designing the interior of my cards to coordinate with the exterior and this card is a prime example of how awesome it is when both sides come together!

As nice as it looks in pictures, this card looks so pretty in reality.

Thanks for stopping by! =)
