Simon Says Stamp August Card Kit – Hello Sunshine. Video
Hi everyone! Simon Says stamp August Card Kit has been revealed a few days ago and it is once again amazing! Wonderful summery images, bright colors, fun sentiments – what more can you wish for? Here’s a card I created using new goodies:
I used the banner border stamp from the Flip Flop Season stamp set and stamped it directly onto my card base using a few colors of ink – Duckling, Sunshine, Rosie Cheeks, Pale Blush Pink and Hollyhock. Next I die cut a circle using Simon Pierced Circles die and stamped large outline Hello using Sunshine ink. I also die cut a sunshine word for this project; I didn’t have suitable yellow cardstock so I used white and colored it using my Copic marker, I also added white foam tape to the back of my paper to die cut an instant dimensional and sticky element.
I also stamped flip flops using Memento Tuxedo Black ink and colored them using Copics; added Sakura Glitter Pen on top for some shine. I dressed up my card using some puffy stickers from the kit – added a cute little sunshine, a few clouds and a heart.
I also used the Martha Stewart Iridescent Stars to decorate my flip flops. I adhered them down using Multi Matte Medium adhesive from Ranger.
I created a video tutorial to show you how this card came together, you can watch it here or on my Youtube channel:

July 27, 2015A lovely card and I love the yellow. Very refreshing! BTW, a great tip about using double-side foam tape stuck to CS for quick dimension. Very clever!

August 13, 2015At first I thought you meant you die-cut the Sunshine word and then somehow added tiny pieces of foam to it ( and I admired your perseverance!). THEN I realized you added the foam to the cardstock before cutting — that is a fantastic tip!
