Hello Winter

Hello my friends, take a sheet of beautiful background paper, add a little stamping, a large die-cut word and boom, you have a quick and easy card. I used Paper Rose Enchanting Christmas 6" x 6" paper, Simon Says Don't Flurry, Be Happy stamp set and Harmony Snowflakes dies, all from the Simon Says Stamp January Card Kit along with Simon Says Hello word die. The kit is still available to purchase at time of writing and you can also purchase individual items from the kit, if you wish HERE.

I  trimmed the Paper Rose Enchanting Christmas 6" x 6" paper to 4" x 5.1/4", inked the snowflake border from Simon Says Don't Flurry, Be Happy stamp set with Dusty Concord Distress Archival ink and stamped at an angle across the top of the paper.

I die-cut Simon Says Hello word die 4 times from Distress Watercolor card and layered to create dimension.

I coloured the left over scrap with Dusty Concord Distress Archival ink using the direct to paper technique, die-cut using Simon Says Harmony Snowflakes and fixed in place with Distress Collage Medium.

I added white accents to the centres and points on the stamped snowflakes using a Sakura White Gelly Roll Pen.

I fixed the Hello word die cut in place with Distress Collage Medium and added a Tim Holtz/Idea-ology Christmas Label Sticker to complete the sentiment.

I matted the panel on to Simon Says Lavender cardstock, also included in the kit, trimmed to be 1/8" larger and fixed to an A2 white card blank.
