Simon Says Stamp's December Card Kit

Hello!
I am guest designing for Simon Says Stamp today, using their GORGEOUS December Card Kit. And I have 3 cards to share, all made ENTIRELY with the kit plus a few extras like dies and ink.
So, my first card… I used the cute snowflake stencil that's a part of the kit, and misted it with Neon Pink Mister Huey's. After adding a greeting from the fun stamp set in the kit, I added a couple of die cut hearts (from THIS and THIS set) then adhered the panel to some glittery snowflake paper from the kit. Who says pink is not for Christmas?? :)

Lots of glittery shimmer here...

My next card features the mitten stamp from the set. I stamped my mittens in a variety of Hero Arts Shadow Inks, then embellished them with a load of Rock Candy Glitter and some hand cut reindeer from one of the gorgeous Doodlebug papers in the kit. I even added wiggle eyes…

seriously, if I ever found REAL mittens with wiggle eyes I'd buy the LOT. :)

My final card features more of those cute reindeer… and they are SO cute that I thought they deserved to take centre stage. I just added a glittery die cut heart and a sentiment banner cut using THIS die.

Simon Says Stamp Christmas Week - Day 5 + GIVEAWAY

Welcome to the final day of my Simon Says Stamp Christmas Week. I've had such fun playing with Simon's AWESOME products!!
Today's card uses a mix of old and new products… I chose an old favourite - the Small Forest Tree die to create my Christmas tree, adhering it to some green chevron paper from American Crafts' Mayberry pad. The cool background paper is from Studio Calico's Magical pad.

I built a sentiment with the ever-so-useful Christmas stamp set, and finally added some Hero Arts pearls for decoration.

Simon Says Stamp Christmas Week - Day 4

It's the fourth day of my Simon Says Stamp Christmas Week, and today I played with one of their Christmas stencils - Ho Ho Ho. This was pretty much my first attempt at using a stencil… and it was fun. (And messy!) I adhered the stencil to some card stock then sprayed with Mixed Tape Neon Mister Huey's.

I die cut a Maryanne Snowflake from some of the leftover misted card stock, then covered it in Star Dust Stickles for some extra sparkle.

This makes for a fun, non-traditional Christmas card.
OK, so it's my final day tomorrow, I'll be back then!
Bye.
