Simon Says Stamp - Through The Window July Card Kit

Hello my friends, it's that time of the month when Simon Says Stamp release a new card kit and the Through The Window July 2025 Card Kit is beautiful, great value for money and filled to the brim with great products to play with. If you don't already subscribe or wish to purchase individual items from the kit, you can find all the details HERE.

It's always exciting when a new kit arrives in the cubbyhole, I can't wait to unpack it and am itching to play.
I created a card using one of the gorgeous La La Land Crafts In The City 6" x 6" patterned papers, Simon Says Window Trio and Honeycomb Tag dies, Tim Holtz/Sizzix Mischievous Thinlits and a sentiment from Simon Says Through The Window 6" x 8" stamp set.
I began by die-cutting the window from the patterned paper.
I trimmed the patterned paper to 4" x 5.1/4" and fixed to the front of an A2 white card blank. I die-cut the window again from Distress Watercolor card and fixed into the negative space. I puzzled pieced the patterned paper die-cut sections back into the window frame and fixed in place using the new Simon Says Pawsitively Perfect Craft Glue. I die-cut an A2 panel of Distress Watercolor card using the Window die, placed a piece of the acetate included in the kit behind the aperture and fixed the die-cut patterned paper window frame into the aperture, ready for another card.
I die-cut the window again twice from Distress Watercolor card and layered to create dimension. I die-cut the cat twice from Distress Black HeavyStock using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Mischievous Thinlits. I sanded scraps of Sizzix Revealz Sandable Spiced cardstock and die-cut the flowers using Simon Says Honeycomb Tag dies. 
I stamped the sentiment from Simon Says Through The Window 6" x 8" stamp set on to a scrap of Distress Black HeavyStock, inked with Versamark ink, sprinkled with Simon Says White Embossing Powder, heat set, trimmed and fixed in place with the 3D foam strips included in the kit.

Oops, I did replace the missing flower centre
I'll be back tomorrow to share the shaker card I made with the left over window frame die-cut. In the meantime, have fun with whatever you're making.
