Simon Says 'April card Kit'

Hi all :-) My monthly arrived today !! YES I am talking about the Simon Says Stamp Monthly Card Kit !! Woo Hoo !! :-)

This kit was just the thing to brighten up my day !!! :-)


The kit comes with this fabulous 'Watts Up' stamp set and a gorgeous wad of papers from Simple Stories that have both bright colours and lots of black designs in there too ,,, awesome !! :-)

 I inked the solid bulb with orange peel towards the base and sunshine for the rest, it just gives it a slightly stronger colour at the bottom ,, can you see ?? :-) I then overstamped with the black outline before adding some glitter  to highlight the heart shape. 

I finished with some Black Twine.


and this is the kit !! Isn't it gorgeous !!  These kits do sell like hot cakes, so if you would like one I would get in there quick as light'ning :-) I am hoping for more 'lightbulb' moments in ways to use this kit !! :-)  ,,, OK ,, will shut up now ,,,,, :-)


Challenges :
A Creative Romance ,,,, Seeing Double
Keep It Simple ,,,, Stripes






Hope you all have a great week :-)
Happy Crafting

I love Simon's new colours of cardstock and ink pads and I used a stencil and several of the ink pads to make the background then sprayed with shimmery goodness. The shimmer doesn't photograph well but it is lovely IRL,,, you'll just have to take my word for it :-)

I wanted the 'Mum' die cut to be the centre of attention,, I love that we have a Mum and well as Mom Dies :-) So thoughtful of Simon don't ya think :-)
