Simon Says Stamp Card Kit: December

   MERRY CHRISTMAS Everyone!


I am here to share my first card made with the  new Simon Says Stamp Card Kit project !
This time with the December 2022 Card Kit. So many fun things in this kit!!! I absolutely LOVE the layering stencils - so fun top play around with different color combos.


















I started by diecutting a panel which I inked, stamped and spattered with white gouach before adhering it to a piece of striped patterned paper.  I then diecut the WONDERFUL santa and colored and assembled him before adding him to the card with foam adhesive. The beard is cut from the velvet that came with the kit (you can buy it seperately) and it gives the santa such a great touch and texture!

Karin's inspiration on the Lawn Fawn blog: December

  Hi Everyone !

I'm here with some last minute inspiration for your Christmas Card making - a sweet birdhouse card:









I started by making my cardbase and then cover the front with a panel cut from the beautiful LET IT SHINE STARRY SKIES paper. I inked the edges to create some dimension and depth. I diecut the birdhouse from  LIGHT BROWN WOODGRAIN I added some diecut birds and leaves and flowers which I had colored using copic markers. 

I then diecut the letters Merry from   LIGHT BROWN WOODGRAIN using the fun henrys-abcs . Before I added them to my card I diecut them a second time, from white cardstock and trimmed a layer of snow to add to the top of my letters. For extra texture I added glitter and glossy accent to the snow. 

Last I added some snowflakes from  -MAGIC IRIS SNOW GLOBE ADD-ON  . 

. 

Now pop over to the Lawn Fawn Blog for awesome cards from the super talented team - so inspiring!.
