Simon Says Stamp February Card Kit

Hi all, hope you're having a fabulous weekend! I know that there are blizzards in some area's so if you are affected, stay home in the warm and drink hot chocolate :-D

I just received this LOVELY February 'Sweetheart' Card Kit  from Simon Says Stamp. 



and this is my first card using it 


I was never a great fan of stickers to be honest, but these new glossy puffy ones are FAB with a capital 'F'!! The 'LOVE' and big red heart are stickers!! AWESOME!! 

I stamped and heat embossed the circle hearts and then coloured them with a R27 Copic Marker. I then painted the hearts with a Wink Of Stella Brush before smothering with Glossy Accents. Jennifer McGuire discovered this technique a while ago and it really does make the hearts super sparkly. 


If you haven't subscribed for the kits yet, what are you waiting for!! It's like a Birthday every month when the postie brings mine! :-)


Challenges:
Creative Knockouts   Embossing (I used heat)




Hope you all have a great weekend :-)

Newton's Nook 'Sweetheart Tails'

I did hesitate before posting this but then after a bit of encouragement from my teamies I thought 

'OH' 


and posted it ;-)

I inked the background with Distress Inks and then sealed with Micro Glaze before splattering with White Ink.

I didn't take a pic of the inside but it says 'It's Only Another Birthday!'


This sentiment is used in appeals to keep the ban on fox hunting. I can't imagine why anyone would want a return to the barbaric 'sport'. It just doesn't bear thinking about.

Challenges:
Ruby's Rainbow    Animal Magic
Cardz 4 Guyz    Blue Is The Colour
Craft Rocket   CAS
Cute Card Thursday   Just Boys
Seize The Birthday   Birthday + CAS






Hope you all have a great week :-)
