Giveaway- 30DAY challenge update

IMG_5083

Hello Friends!! How are you today? I have three cards to share using Simon Says Stamps June Card Kit.  I missed playing with the Simon Kits and I missed the giveaway too… more on the giveaway below the cards. As far as this kit goes A.W.E.S.O.M.E.!! Can you tell how much fun I had with the die cut, stamp set, washi tape, delicious papers etc. etc. Always so many fun elements in each card Kit. 🙂

IMG_5082

There was a fun set of little embellies and I just had to use the sun. I used some foam tape on the back for dimension on the sun. The “Be Happy” sentiment was stamped in this SSS Island Blue Ink. Honestly such a simple & easy card to put together .

IMG_5050

The washi is so bright and happy. I layered two strips together and used this boarder die cut to give the washi a wow factor on the card.

IMG_5080

All of the papers were so pretty I wanted use lots of them. I die cut several of the papers with the stitched squares and cut them down the center for triangles. Added some solid layers to my triangles and glued them with some glossy accents on my card. Doesn’t the “Smile” die make you happy?

IMG_5081

It made me happy so I had to use it again. Another simple card with some layers to add pop. If you don’t have the stitched square die cuts I highly recommend them.

THE GIVEAWAY : All you need to do is leave me a comment tell me if the smile die cut makes you happy too! I will draw a random winner at midnight June 7th and will announce the winner Monday June 8th. (please check back to claim the prize) Thanks Simon Says! I am grateful to be able to give a kit away!

    I love these brightly colored papers and everything in the kit. They ALL make me happy, not just the smile die! It was so smart of you to cut out the stitched squares and make triangles from them. I’m going to do this.

    Everything you did was so bright and sunny! I loved all the colors! The paper is amazing and the Washi Tape is as colorful as you are. It made me SMILE like your card says. Your card and this season is why I love spring. My favorite color is yellow and with the tulips and daffodils and forsythias my favorite color is everywhere! Its like I woke up and world turned yellow and colorful. After our long winter, it’s about time!

    Oh Kathy,
    Your cards have me smiling…from ear to ear!!

    This kit is AMAZING! I love the card stock, the color combinations, the washi, the stamp set… oh just about everything! And the smile die really makes me smile – although I don’t even have a die cutting machine (yet) = ) I think it’s great, especially because you can use it with the circle around or simply snip that off & use the “smile” by itself – very versatile for a die! I LOVE the cards you’ve created with this kit!! Yours, Steph
