I wanted to create a masculine Valentine card this week & I am featuring lots of lovely Simon Says Stamp on brand exclusive products. The stamp set I have featured is called Heart Animals which I have stamped in Memento & coloured with my copics & a white gel pen. 

To add the little hearts behind the cute images I used Simon Says Stamps Simple Duo Stencil with a Faber Castell Polychromo pencil & then I stamped one of the accessory stamps from the Heart Animals stamp set randomly around the images using Simon Says Stamp Black Pigment Ink Pad.

On today's card I am featuring Brutus Monroe's Gilded Ultra Fine Embossing Powder & Vellum with Simon Says Stamp Merry Christmas Clear Stamp which I have used to create my sentiment. In real life the heat embossed embossing powder is really metallic and has some pretty sparkle in it too but my photo hasn't picked that up very well unfortunately.

I've created a simple background using Simon Says Stamp Falling Snow Stencil with Snowflake Paste & then ink blended Simon Says Stamps White Pigment Ink over it to soften the look. I foam mounted my background before adding it to my card & I added a few Simply White Crystal Drops randomly onto some of the falling snow & a lovely Prima Flower to finish.

Something New! - Simon Says Stamp DT

Good afternoon & a Happy New Year!

 Our challenge is -

Something New!

The design team are featuring

products on our cards this week.

Don't forget you can enter our challenge 5 times and there is no limit to how many challenges you combine your entry with.

Do you use Instagram?  If so, please add #ssswchallenge to your challenge entry uploads so we can see them on there too. 


On today's card I am featuring Hero Arts Florals Rose Clear Stamp which I have used to create my background. 

I've stamped the rose a few times onto watercolour paper using Simon Says Stamp embossing ink pad & heat embossed it using Hero Arts white detail embossing powder. Once set I ink blended Stormy Sky Distress Ink over the background & then die cut a Stitched Circle from it ensuring it was large enough for my image to show through.

The thing I have missed the most about card making since having to take time out is colourings so I challenged myself to complete colouring an image with my copics for this week so that's another goal ticked off my list. To make it easier for myself I chose this cute & new to me Stamping Bella image called Bundle Girl With Snowdrops as it's fairly small & looked straightforward to colour.

I chose a congratulations sentiment for my card as I thought it would be perfect for a friend who is starting a new job.
