SIMON GALLERIES:

Did you know Simon has card galleries for each of their releases and their card kits, and 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 new Cheering for You 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 had so much fun playing with some of the products from this fantastic release! I usually share five or six cards with each release but today I have just three. 

Up first is this adorable set called, Halloween Friends. I colored these cuties with Copic markers, fussy cut them and adhered them to a piece of cardstock from a beautiful 6x6 paper pack. I thought it made the perfect Halloween backdrop. I also used the Bat Trio die set to finish off this fun card!



This next card uses the beautiful, Cosmos Duo die set. I also used Simon's new Clear Acetate Cards to create something a bit different. Not easy to photograph but hopefully you get the idea. The background is inside the acetate and was made using the new, Rolling Waves embossing folder.



For my final card, I used one of my favorites from the release. The Just Write stamp set and the Just Write Layered Pencils stencil set. Seriously, sooo much fun! I used lots of Simon's Pawsitively Saturated Inks to create a rainbow of pencils!



I hope I've given you a few ideas for using some of the products in this awesome release! Thanks so much for stopping by! Enjoy the rest of the hop!
