I made s super quick background for my card using the High Maintenancne Magenta starburst spray and added extra sparkle with Tsukineko Shimmer spray.  The focal point is created using the Big Numbers stamp set from Simon Says Stamp which I also coloured using the spray as a paint!!

This card was for my lovely mum who turned 65 (obviously) on 23rd December!  Happy Birthday mumsy!!

Isn’t Jen Shurkus just a star when it comes to putting together these inspiration boards – this is another cracker!  I thought I’d go for the frosty look from the photos and used one of MFT’s amazing sentiment sets embossed in silver sparkle with some fab Simon Says Stamp snowflakes coated in Rock Candy distress glitter.  Brr, definitely makes me feel chilly!!

Simon Says Stamp … December 2016 Card Kit

05.12.2016 by Leave a Comment

Hi there.  I know this kit sold out in record time (and why wouldn’t it – it’s amazing) but you can still buy the elements at SSS including the cute as can be stamp set, Merry and Bright which is in stock (for now!!).  I love the colour combo in this set, there is a real retro feel to it which is right up my crafty alley!!  I love the Doodlebug papers and there’s even a Chibi-tronics mini kit in there too!  I’ve started playing with the kit and have three cards to share today JUST using the papers and card – I’ll have a few more featuring the stamp set soon!!

The only bits added to this card that aren’t in the kit are the snowflake and the bakers twine.!

This card was whipped up in seconds!  I cut the paper down to fit an A2 card using the Avery Elle Custom Panels Elle-ments and added some twine – boom!

I’ll be back with more from this kit soon – stay tuned 🙂
