Best Days Release Blog Hop

March 10, 2018

Hi there! Today I’m joining Simon Says Stamp for Day 2 of their Best Days Release Blog Hop. There is so much amazing inspiration showcasing the awesome new Best Days Release.
SSS-Picture Book Walrus & Lamb, Emphatic, Bubble Tracker, Reverse Polka, Oh BabyI have a couple of projects to share using some of my faves from the new release. I just had to play with a few more of the adorable new Picture Book dies. My first card features the Picture Book Walrus. I die cut the Walrus with white cardstock and blended Salty Ocean, Pumice Stone & Hickory Smoke to add the color.
SSS-Picture Book Walrus, Emphatic & Bubble TrackerFor the background I embossed the hexagon images from Bubble Tracker in clear and then blended Distress inks over in Candied Apple, Spiced Marmalade, Squeezed Lemonade, Twisted Citron and  Mermaid Lagoon. The sentiment is from the Emphatic stamp set.

SSS-Reverse Polka, Oh Baby, Picture Book LambFor the background I stamped the Reverse Polka background cling using Sea Glass & Maliblue ink. I die cut a window opening using one of the Nested Circle dies and added a sentiment from Oh Baby.

Best Days Release

March 7, 2018

Hello! Have you seen the fun new Best Days Release over at Simon Says Stamp? So much fun stuff! I was giddy to see more Picture Book Animals.
SSS-Picture Book Croc, Emphatic, Sweet Elephants & Picture Book SkyI’ve created a couple of cards using some of my faves from the new release. My first card features the Picture book Croc. I die cut the Picture Book Croc with white cardstock and then blended Twisted Citron & Crushed Olive to add the color. I never thought I’d fall for a croc, but this one’s pretty darn adorbs.
SSS-Picture Book Croc, Emphatic, Waves StencilI used the fun new Waves and Hills stencil with distress inks in Cracked Pistachio, Peacock Feathers, Mermaid Lagoon & Salty Ocean. I die cut a waves with one of the Slopes & Hills dies so that I could tuck the Picture Book Croc behind. I added a super fun sentiment from the new Emphatic set by CZ Design. I get absolutely giddy when I see new CZ Design stuff!
SSS-Picture Book CrocNext up is a baby card featuring the Sweet Elephant dies.
SSS-Sweet Elephants, Picture Book SkyI used the Picture Book Sky for the background and die cut the elephants in Fog & Smoke cardstock. I added a simple sentiment from the Oh Baby stamp set.
