#SSScoloroffun

There's a fun new release at Simon Says Stamp today. 

I played with some of the products pre-release (thanks so much, Heidi) and they are so fun and fresh. The new ink colors are amazing! 

I used the new Birthday Circle die set and new Hollyhock and Rosie Cheeks inks, along with lavender and soft navy to create the background for this fun cupcake.

I used the new Cone Building stamp set and coordinating dies along with Rosie Cheeks inks again for this sweet card. 

(i recorded my process for both of these cards and i'm trying to relearn editing...it's not like riding a bicycle :/ i'll have those up as soon as i figure that crap out)

Simon Says Stamp "Falling For You" Mega Hop!

I am THRILLED to be hopping with Simon Says Stamp to celebrate their newest release: Falling For You! If you didn't arrive by way of the amazing Teri Anderson, then you're doing it wrong! Go to the Simon Says Stamp Blog at once!

My card uses the new Baby Party Animals, a set that makes me very happy. I stamped a conga line of baby animals and added party remnants all around. This card will go to my sweet neighbors who just brought home their gorgeous baby girl after 20 long weeks in NICU (she was born at 23 weeks, but she's a little fighter). 

Your next stop is the gorgeous blog of Amy Gray. Remember, leaving a comment on each hop post, and there are alot of them, will enter you in a random drawing for a Simon Says Prize Pack. You have until April 28th to comment. Thanks so much for stopping and enjoy the rest of this incredible hop.

Bundle up and keep warm!

it was 75 degrees yesterday, so naturally i made a snowy, winter card. i used the adorable new winter warmth stamps and dies from simon says stamp to create this happy little card. the images are colored in with spectrum noir markers and i've added just a touch of shimmer using my wink of stella glitter brush marker as well as a clear star gelly roll pen.

(i'm having trouble with my internet and i can't link to the simon says store, i'll update asap)

You Make An Ugly Sweater Look Good

Simon Says Stamp has a new release today called "Cold Hands, Warm Heart". I was lucky enough to get my hands on some of the new goodies. I stamped an ugly sweater right away and I used all of the glitter and shine I could find! 

Be sure to check out the new release items, there are stamps, dies, stencils and even inks!
