Miss You with Layered Leaves

 I have one last card to share for the month before Simon Says Stamp's BIGGEST release of the year, STAMPtember®, will be out tomorrow!! I can hardly wait!!  There is sooooo much fun in store with all the wonderful new products that will become available, a month long celebration of collaborative releases, and lots of fun!!

 I have made a card using the very cool and pretty Mod Layering Leaves from their Make Magic release, and a CZ Design sentiment die...

I used the Simon Maliblue ink for the leaves, and Audrey Blue for the details.  I then used the brush to brush on some ink to bare cardstock, and die cut the sentiments from the colored pieces.  I added a die cut and layered heart to the middle of the "o" in the YOU, and popped the sentiment onto the popped up card base.  The heart WAS an afterthought, so it needed a bunch of layers to not get lost in the center of the "o"...to stand out on it's own.  There are ALOT of layers to the heart, and in retrospect, I could have gone with lots fewer layers, but I left all the layers...just sayin, in case you were thinking.  And if you weren't thinking and are now, good to see that cards don't have to be perfect to make you perfectly happy!  Here's a close up...

Hope you will check back tomorrow for the Simon release...LOTS of wonderful stamps dies, stencils and stuff!!  I can't wait!!  Thanks for visiting me today!! Hugs!! Lisa
