It’s the most wonderful time of the year. Simon Says Stamp DieCember is here!! If you are a fan of Simon Says Stamp you know this is big! Each December Simon Says Stamp releases special dies just for the month. This makes creating your holiday cards super easy.
You should have arrived here from Keisha’s blog. For my cards today I’m using several products from the release. My first card was made using the Autumn Splendor die. This die creates striking cards when paired with a festive yet simple background. The background on this card was made using the Winter Floral Mix. A quick sentiment and this card was complete.
My second card is featuring the large Be Kind die. Oh I love love love this die. I paired it with the Detail Petal Plate. Having stacked my sentiment a few times I added shimmer pen, an additional red heart and glossy accents to make it pop.
And for my last card I made a simple yet colorful card using the Hexagon Tile Wafers. I stuck to my tried and true color combo of aqua and red with a splash of white and gold. A simple sentiment and this one was complete as well.
Simon Says Stamp is giving away a $25 coupon to every stop on the hop. Make sure to comment below and along the way on the hop. Winner will be announced on the Simon Says Stamp blog on Wednesday December 9th. Now on to the blog hop. Next on the hop is Daniel. The entire hop list is below for your convenience.
