Simon Says Stamp Boho Circle Stencil

Well, thank goodness that 2020 is over and lets hope for a better 2021!!  

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL! 

I think today is a day to add some more sparkle back into my life so I made a card with loads of it! 



I blended Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Ink trhough the stencil and while it was still in place I spread some White Embossing Paste over the top, picking up all of the leftover ink to color the paste. While it was still wet I sprinkled a lot of Prisma Glitter over the top and went to make a cuppa while it dried. 

I used a Detailed Leaf Cluster Die to pop under the Just Because sentiment to add a little exta interest. 


Thanks for looking!

I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and New Year and hope Santa left you some crafty goodies under the tree!! Hubby bought me a Spellbinders Hot Foil System that I will be playing with later today!! YAY!! ;-)

Simon Says Stamp December Card Kit Card

Oh my goodness, can you believe that it will be Christmas Eve tomorrow!! Are you ready for Santa? I still need to wrap gifts and think about what to cook! 

I made this quick and easy card using products that were in the Simon Says Stamp December Card Kit.  If you have never tried one of these kits before I would definitely recommend them. It's like getting a fabulous gift every month! 


For this card I used the Carta Bella Dear Santa Ephemera and paper from a Simple Stories Vintage North Pole Paper Pack . I also used Tim Holtz Christmas Label Tape for the 'Believe' sentment and added some Star Dust Stickles to Santa's Pom Po and furry trims. 


and I used the leftover scrap of paper to decorate the Schoolhouse Red Metallic Envelope 


Thanks for looking!! 

Wishing you all a Very Merry Christmas and lets hope that 2021 is a better one for us all XX
Sending lots of love and hugs to all, I am sure many of us could do with a few hugs right now xx
