Simon Says Stamp | DieCember

Hi friends!

Happy DieCember! Tonight new Simon Says Stamp DieCember release went live. You can check out new amazing products here.

Today I want to share two cards made using new Loop The Loop Border Die. I was evidently in a kraft mood when was making them ;) Every time I promise myself to work more with color. Which is out of my comfort zone.. But how else will you learn it don’t try? But still coming back to my favorite color schemes.

KRAFT AND WHITE

What I love the most about kraft is that is looks so elegant and cozy with white.

I started making the card by die-cutting the border of a kraft panel following by die-cutting the panel with stitched rectangle die. I also die-cut another border of the same cardstock and adhered it behind the panel.

Then I white embossed word BE using stamps from amazing Stitched Alphabet Stamp Set. I really love this set! I’m a big fan of alphabet stamp and die sets, so you of course should make allowance for it haha. But still – this is a great set!

I also stamped words always and happy onto strips of white paper and foam mounted them onto the panel. Which in turn got mounted onto a white card base.

PENCIL COLORING

For my second card I went a bit more colorful. Another thing I love about kraft and that it can be easily combined with any color.

First I white embossed hello using Stitched Alphabet Stamp Set onto a kraft card base. Next I white embossed several floral images from Spring Flowers Stamp Set around the word. In the areas where letters and flowers overlapped I removed powder with a dry brush before heat setting it.

Next I colored the letter insides with Prismacolor pencils.

 

Lastly I die-cut two borders out of orange cardstock, trimmed them and adhered onto the card.

Usually I put a lot of thoughts in my card, but this design just came to my mind and I tried it. And like a lot how it turned out ;)

Have a wonderful weekend!
