A new Simon Says Stamp release – This is The Life!

Indeed, as I sit here with my ice cold glass of Pinot and a house full of happy children (they broke up for the summer from school today) the theme of the brand new release from Simon Says Stamp could not be more perfectly timed!  The “This is The Life” release is chock full of amazing stamps, dies and stencils with gorgeous summer themes ranging from ice creams to cocktails (my favourite of the bunch – natch)!!!!

I’ve been playing with some of their new products and created this bookmark using the new Floral Bookmarking stamp set and co-ordinating dies:

Do you see that gorgeous patterned paper on the top of my bookmark too?  It’s from the brand new Avery Elle 6×6 Sorbet patterned paper collection!!  There’s a Brights option too!!  I know…. AWESOME!!!  (can’t say that word anymore without singing “Everything is Awesome” from the LEGO Movie!!!)

Make sure you pop along to the store for the details on all the products being released at SSS and for some amazing inspiration – join the blog hop which starts HERE!!

Happy Father’s Day (I know – it’s late!!)

Hello all – I’m here today with a card I made using some of my favourite Simon Says Stamp exclusive products.  I am lucky enough to have both the Falling Stars AND Falling Hearts dies and I absolutely love them!  They cut beautifully and instantly “make” any card!  There isn’t much more needed when you have such an awesome die like this one!!  I also used Simon’s Happy word die.  The size of this die is perfect for a card front!

Happy Father's Day.The Father’s Day sentiment (from Simply Said: Happy) from Avery Elle is also available at Simon Says Stamp .  By the way, they have a great discount code available until 30th June (just quote DSC799) and you can get $7.99 off your order!!  Yay!!

Flamingo wishes!

Hello all.  Today I have a card featuring some fabulous products from Simon Says Stamp.  They asked me if I’d like to share a couple of creations using SSS brand supplies so of course I said YEEEESSSS!!

Flamingo wishes

Now I may have mentioned this before but I have a daughter who is obsessed with flamingos – seriously , they’re everywhere in her room, on her clothes, in her bed!!  So when this SSS die designed by Kelley Purkey came out I knew I had to have it!!  Here I’ve used it to make a shaker card with some pink sprinkles that I’ve had in my stash for years.  I even nabbed one of her flamingos for a photo prop, lol!  I also used the Tilted Banners dies set a co-ordinating stamps exclusively from Simon Says Stamp.  She’s already grabbed this card for her own collection so I guess it won’t be going anywhere other than on her massive Expedit shelving unit along with all the other flamingo nik naks!!
