Simon Says Stamp | May 2016 Card Kit – Be in the now

Hello friends! I’ve been busy lately enjoying my May 2016 Card Kit from Simon – playing with images from the stamp set, trying various coloring techniques and using different coloring mediums. So far watercolor is still my favorite. I have a card I’d like to share using heat embossing, loose watercoloring and a bit of die cutting.

Like this project? Pin it and save for later!

I started by covering the front of an A2 card with one of the plaid pattern papers from the kit and die cutting a rectangular panel with a circle opening out of white cardstock, panel was foam mounted onto the card.

I am all out of Arches watercolor paper (I might have a few bits left, but I have a project in mind for them, so I’m saving them for now and I haven’t ordered a new pack yet) so I used my other watercolor paper and heat embossed several flower images in Rose Gold embossing powder and loosely watercolored using yellows, pinks and greens.

My heat embossed flowers were fussy cut and grouped around a sentiment sticker which I foam mounted over the white die cut.

I also added one additional sentiment sticker – Be In The Now and adhered several sequins using a glue pen from the kit.
