Hey everyone. STAMPtember has begun! If you are like me, you’re pretty stoked right now. Let’s jump into the cards I made.
For my first cad, I used the new Mail Call die cut. There is a sweet little mailbox and envelope in this set. To make my coloring easy, I started with colored cardstock for the mailbox and added in some shading. The envelope was die cut out of white paper and then ink blended with red.
Next I used the new Postage Rectangle dies for the background. Frist die cutting it in white paper and ink blending a happy yellow around the edges. The sentiment is from the CZ Easy Strips You Got This stamp set.
Card number two I used the new Stitched Flowers embossing folder. This embossing folder is so pretty. For a bit of added color, I lightly ran a teal ink pad over the flowers. Next I pulled out that Postage Rectangle dies again and die cut the flowers out. For some added depth I layered this piece on top of dark brown cardstock. The sentiment is also from the CZ Easy Strips You Got This stamp set. Last I added teal enamel dots to the center of each flower.
To wrap things up, my last card is featuring the new Block Presents die cut! This die cut is so pretty and can be used in so many gift giving ways. I paired it with the Thread Plaid embossing folder and a little bit of gold splatter. And the sentiment is from the new Shiny Baubles stamp set.
So how did I do? Are you inspired? Let’s get into shopping happiness. When you spend $100 over at Simon Says Stamp, you will receive this adorable Gingerbread Joy stamp and die set.
