Sending Smiles - SSS One of a Kind Release Hop and GIVEAWAY

Good morning! I'm delighted today to be part of the Day 2 blog hop celebrating the BRAND NEW Simon Says Stamp One of a Kind Release! Tons of inspiration with the new release, and a giveaway at every stop as well!

First off, I used the darling new Dancing Fruits Stamp Set and added SMILING FACES to them!

I stamped the apple from the set four times on watercolor paper, then watercolored it in with various distress inks. I also added some splatters with some of the spare ink, then added the smiling faces from a past SSS Card Kit - Coffee and Tea - and added a perfect sentiment from Handlettered Thanks from a previous release. I die cut the panel with Wonky Rectangles, matted with a bit of black cardstock, then mounted on a kraft cardbase.

I also thought I'd share one of the cards I made with the Punder the Sea Watercolor Paintables by Suzy Plantamura - I did this one while watching a movie last night!

I used my Daniel Smith watercolors to paint it in, then once it dried added some accents with a white gel pen - and the finishing touch, some Nuvo Crystal Drops as "bubbles" from the turtle and fishies!

GIVEAWAY INFO: Simon Says Stamp is giving away a prize worth $25 at every stop along the hop - so make sure and leave some love as you hop along for a chance to win! Winners will be announced next week on the Simon Says Stamp Blog.
