Card #281: Thank you card

Thank you card #281
This is a Thank you card I made with stamps and papers from the Simon Says Stamp card kit October 2014. I paper pieced the mug and I stamped the greeing with letter stamps from Lawn Fawn. I used Colorbox chalk ink, Chestnut roan for the stamps. I also added some white ribbon (not in the kit).

Card #289: Merry Christmas & Happy New Year

Card #289
This is a long christmas card I made with stamps from the Simon Says Stamp Card Kit November 2014. It's made for holding a large printed gift card inside.
The greeting stamp says Merry Christmas & Happy New Year, and it comes from Forma hantverk.
I used different Distress ink colors for the background over the white embossed snow.
The trees are stamped with ink from Hero Arts and Avery Elle.
I hand cut the snow hills and added some Distress Stickles. The greeting is heat embossed with Liquid Platinum embossing powder. I also added glitter on the trees with the Wink of Stella clear glitter pen and some red twine.

Card #288: Simon Says Stamp Flickr Challenge #8

In Simon Says Stamp Flickr group you can find some fun challenges and when I saw the sketch for the Challenge #8, I wanted to try to make a card based on the sketch.

Sketch For SSS Flickr Challenge 8

So this is what I came up with.

Warm Holiday Wishes #288

I used a Simon Says Stamp stamp set called Big holiday wishes, it came with an old card kit, December 2013, from Simon Says Stamp.
Other supplies used for the card:

  • Ink: Hero Arts ink (red), Distress ink (blue) Versafine Onyx Black ink
  • Perfect Pearls
  • Embossing folder from Cuttlebug
  • Circle die from Spellbinders.
  • White gel pen.
  • The patterned paper for the banner comes from the Simon Says Stamp Holiday Card Kit 2013.
I have so many card kits now from SSS and I will try to use the materials to make room for some new crafty things :-)

Card #287: Silver card

Card #287
This is a clean and simple card I made when I saw the challenge on CASology, week 125. The theme was silver and I think the Simon Says Stamp card kit December 2014 would be perfect to use, so everything on the card comes from the card kit. Except for using a Copic marker coloring the heart :-)
