Simon Says - Have A Heart

Hi Everyone...welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog. Thank you for joining us for last week's challenge and we hope you can join us this week too because

and the theme for this week is...

HAVE A HEART

I created a Valentine's Day card using the Be Your Beautiful Self stamp set, Artful Palette Wafer Dies and Tim Holtz/Idea-ology Pink Palette Collection papers from Simon Says Stamp February Card Kit along with the Swiss Dots Clear Background stamp and Love Script Wafer Dies.

I stamped the circle image from Simon Says Stamp Be Your Beautiful Self stamp set with Spun Sugar Distress Oxide ink, stamped on to an A2 panel of Distress Watercolor card and repeated, inked with Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide ink.

I inked Simon Says Stamp Swiss Dots Clear Background stamp with Scorched Timber Distress ink, stamped randomly on the panel and inked the edges using a Tiny Blending Tool.

I die-cut the circles and hearts from Tim Holtz/Idea-ology Pink Palette Collection 8" x 8" paper using  Simon Says Stamp Artful Palette Wafer Dies, inked the edges with Scorched Timber Distress Ink and fixed to the panel with Distress Collage Medium. I trimmed the panel to 3.3/4" x 5" and lightly inked around the edges.

I die-cut Simon Says Stamp Love Script Wafer Dies twice from Distress Watercolor card, coloured the word die-cut with Kitsch Flamingo Distress Oxide ink, layered to create dimension and fixed in place with Distress Collage Medium.

I die-cut the smallest Artful Palette heart 3 times from the left over coloured card, fixed in place with Simon Says Stamp Thin Foam Squares included with the kit and added Ranger Glossy Accents.

I stamped the sentiment from the Be Your Beautiful Self stamp set on to a scrap of Distress Watercolor card, die-cut with the co-ordinating die set which is available as a separate purchase and fixed to the panel using Simon Says Stamp Thin 3D foam squares.

To finish I matted the panel on to an A2 white card blank and added Trinity Stamps Creamy Vanilla Heart Sprinkles.
