Leafy Encouragement - Simon Says Stamp

 Good morning! I'm popping in to share a couple cards I created using a mix of different releases from Simon Says Stamp - everyone goes through rough times, and I love how a card can be so uplifting in those times. Some simple heartfelt sentiments are a perfect way to convey your love and care for someone! I have two cards to share, using slightly different sentiments, and different color schemes, paired with the same cling stamp set that has two different looks!


For both of these cards, I stamped one of the edges from Leaf Edges cling stamp. I used Sage ink for one, and Twilight for the other. I then added sentiments stamped in black from Well Wishes stamp set. I rounded off the top right corner, just to add some interest, and draw the eyes up to the sentiment a bit extra. I decided it needed a bit more color, so I grabbed one shade lighter in each of the inks - Aspen and Morning - and did some soft ink blending over the stamped leaves. It added just a pretty soft bit of color behind the leaves, that helped break up all the white space. Finally, I finished off with a few Pinkfresh Ombre Glitter Drops in Starry Sky and Magic Potion to coordinate with the colors on each card. Here are some more photos, and closer looks at each of these cards:
