Hello! Today, I’m delighted to be sharing three projects as part of a Simon Says Stamp blog hop showcasing products from their GOOD VIBES release. Simon Says Stamp is giving away a $25 coupon to every stop on the hop! The list of stops is included at the end of my post.
Additionally, use the code PUFFY for a pack of Pebbles Flowers Puffy Stickers, free with any purchase until Sunday, 6/24 at 11:59 pm EDT.
My first project features the Hibiscus Frame die with which I created a CAS friendship card in bright tropical colors.
- I cut the Hibiscus Frame from 110 lb. white cardstock and trimmed it to 4 1/4″ square (the die cuts the inside but not the outside frame).
- For the background, I adhered strips of cardstock – Key Lime, Sea Glass, Tangerine Twist – from the Gina K Add-On pack to a piece of cardstock.
- I cut the small piece of the hibiscus from Coral Reef cardstock.
- To finish, I heat-embossed a sentiment from the Vacation Time set on Tranquil Teal and added it to the top.
For my next project, I created a CAS summer-themed card showcasing the Jazz Dance stencil.
- I applied Deco Foil Transfer Gel through the Jazz Dance stencil on to Turquoise Sea cardstock.
- Once dried, I ran the stenciled panel through the Minc with matching Turquoise Sea foil to create a tone-one-tone background.
- I used the Summertime die for the sentiment. I cut Key Lime, Tangerine Twist, Coral Reef cardstock (all three included in the Gina K Add-On pack) and Turquoise Sea cardstock with the die and inlaid the letters in a white cardstock frame.
For my final project, I created a friendship card combining a sentiment from Vacation Time with the Big Friend die.
- To begin, I added Broken China Distress Oxide ink to a white cardstock panel and stamped the Vacation Time sentiment in Archival ink.
- I cut the Big Friend die sentiment from white cardstock and Coral Reef.
- I used the Blooming Circle die to cut the floral pieces from Lucky Clover, Sea Glass, Tangerine Twist, and Coral Reef (from the Gina K Add-On pack). I used a negative piece to place the small pieces on the card base.
- I used Turquoise Sea cardstock for the card base.
