I am thrilled to be a part of today's Simon Says Stamp Blog Hop, celebrating Simon's new release, Good Vibes!!
If you are following the order of the hop,
and came here from Barb Engler's blog, by now you are surely feeling the good vibes...what a fun release this is!!
I LOVE sentiments, so it's little wonder that I was drawn to and super smitten with the new Everett Solid Letters dies, as these are MADE for words:)!! I have made a couple cards with these fun dies, to share with you today...
I used a rainbow of colors, die cut and layered the letters (four layers total), added a finishing sentiment, and used translucent embossing paste with the new Jazz Dance stencil for a background. I added some Tonic Crystal drops. Here's a close up...
The second one, I used the new Center Cut Geometric Pattern background stamp to give pattern to the letters...
I stamped with versa mark, white embossed, die cut, layered and added a sentiment to the "thanks"...simply done, but I LOVE the pattern...it "makes" this sentiment. Here's a close up...
What I love so much about these letters, is that there are so many looks that you can give to a simple sentiment whether by placement or design on the letters...SO...MUCH...FUN!!!
Ok...that's MY fun, but now, some fun for YOU!!
