Today's card features Whimsy Stamps Slimline Fancy Frame Dies which I have die cut using Simon Says Stamps White Woodgrain & Cotton Candy cardstock.

I wasn't happy with the Valentine card I had created for my little granddaugher Lillie so decided to create another & made this one completely personal by featuring the words I always say to her before we go our separate ways "Love you Lillie".

The background has been created by ink blending Picked Raspberry & Spun Sugar Distress Inks gently over Simon Says Stamps Falling Hearts stencil.

My little Lillie is just like her nana & loves a bit of sparkle so I have die cut Simon Says Stamps Rounded Alphabet, Love You & Heart Parade wafer dies using various coloured glitter card stock, & also added some small hearts to decorate using Simon's Heart Breeze wafer die. 

Other supplies used - 

 Tacky Glue, Double Sided Tape, Guillotine Comfort Paper Trimmer, Simply White Crystal Drops, Boiled Sugar Jelly Drop Hearts

 On my first card that I am sharing today I am featuring Simon Says Stamps Kaleidoscope Embossing Folder, Simon Says Stamp Orchid Rose Bouquet Clear stamps set & Simon's White Fine Details Embossing Powder.

I stamped the beautiful Orchid Rose Bouquet Clear Stamp using Embossing Ink & then heat embossed it using White Fine Detail Embossing Powder & watercoloured it using Altenew watercolour pans.

I have used the debossed side of my cardstock for this card and all of my card that I have embossed has been spritzed with a mix of water and Pearl Perfect Pearls so has a delicate, really pretty sparkly shimmer to it.

Other supplies used - 

 Moonshine Sequins Tacky Glue,  Double Sided Tape, Guillotine Comfort Paper Trimmer, Simply White crystal drops,

I have been able to spend a little bit more time in my craft room as I am on annual leave & my back injury feels much better than it was so have made a couple more quick cards to share today.

This card has been created using the embossed side of the Kaleidoscope Embossing Folder & I have heat embossed a sentiment from the Orchid Rose Bouquet clear stamps set & added twine & a Prima flower.

My last card has been created using Simon Says Stamps Christmas Cookies Embossing Folder & I have swiped my Victorian Velvet Distress Ink Pad over the debossed side & added a die cut sentiment, stars & snowflake.

Thanks for stopping by &  stay safe!
