It’s time for the Simon Says Stamp DieCember release! This release is all dies, no stamps or stencils. There’s snowflakes to hearts in this release – plenty of choices for all tastes and preferences! I’m sharing five of the new dies from the release this week. Check my blog for more looks featuring them!
This 5″ X 7″ Friend card uses the CZ Design Friends die. I die cut the generously sized printed font die out of multi-color cardstock that I made using strips of cardstock set on the diagonal. I also die cut the word out of white craft foam and adhered it to the word die cut to make it dimensional. The background of this card was made by die cutting and applying the Stamp Strips to the cardstock to the 80lb Neenah Solar White cardstock card base. All of the colored strips are approximately 1/2″ wide and the red strips are 1/8″ wide.
For the circular element, I stamped the Spring Flowers Background stamp and colored it using RV55, RV10, R29, BG11, BG49, YG03. I kept this fairly light and simple – plenty of white space! I attached the word to the circular feature using 1/4″ double-sided Scor-Tape Crafting Tape. I also paper-clipped the circle to the card base. I had a cute red/white striped paperclip that was fitting to use here. 🙂
To finish this card, I added some pompom trim from a local fabric store in a light aqua to the bottom edge of the card front. I attached it using HBS Precision Glue.
