I love the Simon Says Stamps monthly kits. They always have great products and new items for me to play with. Their team also does a wonderful job making videos and sharing new techniques. When I saw this alcohol lift ink video by Nichol Spohr on the Simon blog using the newest kit, I could not wait for my kit to come in so I could try this. I am so in love with these cards. I combined the Simon Beautiful Butterflies kit (June 2018) with an older My Monthly Hero kit (MMH - March 2018) by Hero Arts. I first made the backgrounds, and did the lift technique using a alcohol ink lift pad and the Beautiful Butterfly stamp set. Once they dried, I used the inked backgrounds and the transfer backgrounds to make a bunch of cards. I used the word dies from the My Monthly Hero Kit. I am not sure why I have not used these word dies until now, they are wonderful.
Blog Update: (July 5, 2020) My cards were selected as Top 3 in two different challenges. I always appreciate it when others like the cards I make.

I found this really funny t-shirt online about 4 months ago, and thought...my dad needs that shirt. It is a navy blue t-shirt and says in big white letters, "Awesome Like My Daughter." I thought it was funny, so I purchased one. It was the perfect gift for Father's Day, and he loved it. I made a card for him, and decorated a Panera Bread bag to match. I love how it all turned out. Materials Used: Altenew: Trophy Life stamp set Delicata inks: Celestial Copper & Sapphire Blue The Paper Studio: Metallic Washi Tap in copper and blue Cards tock: Recollections Scalloped Nesting Dies (sorry I do not remember the maker) Pattern Paper from my stash Gift Bag was a up-cycled bag from Panera Bread (it was from a lunch order, but all the food was in containers, so why not use it) |
