♥ Glimmer Foil Thank You ♥

Thank You season is almost here! Well it is around here anyway! We all send out Thank you cards after Christmas for all of the gifts that we receive, as well as, throughout the year. So we can never have enough of them! I wanted to make some quick and easy ones to have on hand. So I broke out the Spellbinders Glimmer Hot Foil Machine and a couple Amazing Paper Grace Hot Foil Plates to make some shimmery Foiled Thank you cards. I used the Elegant Rectangle Foil Plate and the Elegant Foil Seals Plates by Becca. She also made Elegant Monograms Plates that you could use instead of the Seals, so you can make monogrammed Thank you's, if you wish.

I went and took this picture outside to show you just how much shimmer these foils have! So beautiful! You can find all of Becca's fabulous plates HERE!

Have a wonderful day!

♥ Let's Go Die Crazy! ♥

Happy Wednesday to you! Only 9 more days until Christmas! Shopping is done...cards are mailed out...decorating done...wrapping...didn't even start yet! :( But I did stat some Christmas Thank You cards already though! :) This week at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog the theme is...DIE CRAZY! So break out those dies and get a die cutting!! ;)

This week the Simon Says DT are showcasing Exclusive products by Simon Says Stamp! So I decided to get a start on my Thank you cards for Christmas and the new Painted Thanks Die is perfect for them! I also used the Christmas Tree and Stitched Circles Dies by Simon Says Stamp as well.

I paired up all those dies with a Hero Arts Acetate Card, lots of Tim Holtz Clear Rock Candy Distress Glitter, some Simon Says Moonshine Sequins and some October Afternoon Music Notes Washi Tape. The papers are from the TH Yuletide 8x8 Paper Stash.

And don't forget, the super sweet and generous Heidi will give the random winner of this challenge a $50 Credit Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp Superstore! Good luck everyone!

This week the Simon Says DT are showcasing products by Doodlebug Designs.On this card, I used a White Doily, a Swimming Pool Mini Clothespin and Ladybug Glitter Enamel Dots all by Doodlebug.

♥ Simon Says...Anything Goes! ♥

It's that time again!! ANYTHING GOES at the super fabulous Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog!

This week the Simon Says DT are showcasing products by Avery Elle! Love their stamps and dies! I decided to make a set of little note cards. They were super quick and easy too!

I first started with the Dotted Borders Die Set. I die cut a design onto a piece of matted white cardstock and then trimmed off a piece at the bottom so I would have a "space" in between the cuts. For this Hello card, I matted the die cut cs to a card base made from Simon Says Doll Pink Cardstock. I stamped the "Hello" with Avery Elle's Alpha's Clear Stamp Set as well as all of the sentiments. And the ink is Avery Elle's Magenta.

This one uses Simon Says Stamp's Audrey Blue Cardstock and Every Elle's Mermaid Ink Pad.

This one uses SSS Mint Cardstock and Avery Elle's Ocean Mist Ink Pad.

I finished off the set of note cards with some May Arts Natural Twine and White Opal Liquid Pearls.

And don't forget, the super sweet and generous Heidi will give the random winner of this challenge a $50 Credit Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp Superstore! Good luck everyone!
