Simon Says - Favorite Things

Hello my friends, Simon Says Stamp have just launched their latest release - Favorite Things and there are so many products in this release that I'm sure will become some of your favourites. You can check out all the products in the release HERE.

I created a trio of Mini 4" x 4" cards using the super cute hippo images and sentiments from Simon Says Stamp Hip Hip Hooray 3" x 4" stamp set, decorated with the Pretty Bows dies and Pale Green Embellishments Mix.
I trimmed Distress Watercolor card to create 3 - 3.1/2" square panels, smooshed a Bundled Sage Distress Oxide ink pad on to my craft mat, spritzed with water and tapped the panels into the ink until I was happy with the backgrounds and dried. 
I applied Simon Says Stamp Carnation Pawsitively Saturated Ink randomly on the backgrounds through the Falling Hearts Stencil using a Round Detail Blending Brush.
I stamped the images from Hip Hip Hooray on to Strathmore Bristol Smooth Card, inked with Simon Says Stamp Versafine Clair Nocturne ink.
I coloured the images with Grey and Pink Zig Real Clean Color Markers and fussy cut using my trusty Tim Holtz/Tonic Studios Mini Recoil Snips.
I stamped the sentiments from Hip Hip Hooray on to the panels, inked with Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink, added the hippos, fixed in place with Distress Collage Medium and added the sequins from the Pale Green Embellishment Mix.
I matted the panels on to Simon Says Stamp Doll Pink cardstock, trimmed to be 1/8" larger and added bows die-cut using Simon Says Stamp Pretty Bows dies.
I added Trinity Stamps Creamy Vanilla Heart Sprinkles to the centres of the bows and the hippos and matted the panels on to 4" square white card blanks.


I'll be back soon to share another make using products from the Favorites release, in the meantime, I'm planning a day in the garden tomorrow, weather permitting. Have a great weekend whatever you have planned.
