Simon Says Stamp June 2015 Card Kit – I’ve played at last!!

June-2015-Card-Kit-600

 

My goodness, where are these weeks going??!  I’ve had this amazing kit sitting on my desk for days but have only just managed to have a play with it!  I LOVE it so much – it’s one of my favourites so far (although I think I say that every month, lol).  I die cut one of the new MFT circle dies and whilst the die was still in place used a series of masking steps to get the stripes.  I used the Ranger dye inks (which I LOVE) and they blended beautifully!

The Perfect Day

I’ve been playing again with the Simon Says Stamp May Card kit and I am totally in love with the soft colours and gold accents – such a sophisticated palette.  I love the kits for being able to pull together a card that looks so professional and cohesive – I so enjoy getting them every month.

May CK 1 cuI used some of the stunning My Mind’s Eye papers and accented with a few extra bits of gold bling (some gold thread and sequins) and the card came together in no time.

I’m loving the sneak peeks we’re starting to see for the June kit too – can’t wait for that box of yumminess to land on my doorstep!!

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

Thank you for joining us for the Anything Goes Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

LET’S GET SENTIMENTAL

Simply use a sentiment on your project ! There are so many fabulous sentiment stamps, dies, stencils, stickers etc that is is nice to let them take centre stage once in a while don’t you think ?

We are showcasing TIM HOLTZ PRODUCTS this week. You don’t have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

I’m not gonna lie, whenever I see the words “Tim Holtz” a wee shiver of fear goes down my spine, lol!  I struggle to make his products look as good as everyone else does, not sure what it is – I think it’s the whole “grungy” thing!  Anyhoo, I decided I could still do Clean and Simple and use a Tim Holtz stamp!  So I grabbed the gorgeous Simon Says Stamp May card kit and created a simple card using this lovely sentiment stamp.  If you haven’t seen this kit ye then I urge you to check it out.  I love getting the monthly kits, they are always so inspiring and great for when your mojo needs a kick up the bum!!
