Dear Friend Blog Hop

Hi there! Today I’m joining Simon Says Stamp for their Dear Friend Release Hop! You can check out the fun, new release HERE!

SSS-Painted Rainbow, Hey Girl, Reverse Sassy Mama

For my project I used the Painted Rainbow Background Cling with the new Hey Girl Die. I used Matte Gold Cardstock for the “girl” and added a sub-sentiment from one of the Reverse Sassy Mama Sentiment Strips.

SSS-Painted Rainbow, Hey Girl, Reverse Sassy Mama

Here’s a video showing how I created this card.
