even a video gallery? It's true, and you can add your very own cards and
projects to these galleries! Here's a link to all the Simon Brand Galleries, and here's the link to the Be Creative Gallery. There is so much inspiration to see! I encourage you to check them out and add your own cards/projects as well!
MY CARDS:
I've got three cards to share today, using 6 products I received from the new release. The one thing I didn't get a photo of is Simon's new Storage Envelopes. I LOVE THEM! They are a larger size and very sturdy, durable and so well made. Just wanted you to know that.
Okay, for my first card, I used the darling, Vitamin Sea stamp set. I did not have the coordinating dies, so I fussy cut all the images after coloring them with Copic Markers. Then I adhered them to an ink blended background. This is such an adorable set and so fun to play with!
Up next is the Brush Strokes stencil. I love the possibilities with this product! I paired it with the new, Journaling Sentiment Strips and some pretty inks from Simon, for a rainbow effect on an encouraging card! And to hold my stencil and paper in place, I used the new Stamp and Stencil Mat.
My third and final card uses two more fun products! The Angularium Cling stamp and the Simply Fabulous Die set. It's a simple card but I do love that Seafoam Ink color!
And that's it for me! I hope I've given you a couple ideas for using some of the products from this wonderful release! Don't forget tomorrow is day 2 of the hop, starting on Simon's blog!
Enjoy the rest of today's hop and thank you so much for stopping by!
