Sending Love

I LOVE this new Simon Says Stamp card kit for July!! Its just way to cute!! I decided to use this kit for my card to share with you today!!



For the bottom half of the card I drew a line with pencil where I wanted to separate the paper,  and then versa marked the envelopes on used white embossing powder and heated it up. After I was done getting all the envelopes on there I masked off with some washi tape where I drew the line. I pulled out some distress ink sponged it on with my distress tool. Once that was done I went over it with some old Stampin Up! shimmer paint I found (the sun shifted on me so hard to see that in the pic) mixed with water and dabbed on over the distress ink. Once it was dry I removed the tape, added my sentiment some rhinestones and was done!

Hope you enjoy!!

FTL298, Let's Get Nautical

Hey stampers! Natasha made the perfect card for this sketch. I love it! Harriet, my neighbor, seriously, she lives within an hour of me, made a super fast lovely card today too!

I made a video for this card that I will get up at Cindy B Designs some time this week, but in the meantime, I wanted to share my card with you. I used all My Favorite Things products, except for the wooden boat and I have no idea where that came from. I have a giant jar that I picked up from Kirkland's that I just dump all of my wooden embellishments in. Super organized, huh? When I want to find something, I just dump the entire jar out on the floor! One of these days…keep telling yourself that Cindy.

I hope that you enjoy this card and thank you Natasha for another wonderful sketch!

Blessings to you and I will see you the next time around.


Products used: My Favorite Things Go Overboard stamp set; Let's Get Nautical Die-Namics; Chocolate Brown, Kraft, Nightshift (almost forgot to put the F in there) Blue, Red Hot My Favorite Things Hybrid Ink Pads; Red Hot and Smooth White card stock; Wooden Boat from craft supply; Wood Button from Stampin' Up; Linen Thread by Stampin' Up! Card size is 4-3/4 square.
