Soft Sympathy - Simon Says Stamp April Card Kit

 Hello! I'm popping in to share my first cards using the new April 2024 Simon Says Stamp Card Kit -  Wild and Free Flowers! This month's kit is full soft, muted florals, and lovely sentiments! The included stamp set by the same name has some pretty florals and scripty sentiments. There is also a fun embossing folderlovely pattern paper and embossing powder and ink pad...that's all not to mention the cardstock, envelopes, and more! 

The monthly card kit has even more perks now when you sign up for the new Subscription service! There is a video HERE you can watch to learn more!


My cards for this were a little later than planned, and honestly, quite different than what I probably would have made a week ago. Last week, the day after my mom's 77th birthday, we began the process of walking her to heaven. She passed early Friday morning. The next few days were a combination of a heaviness from saying goodbye, sadness for how much she will be missed, and happiness for her to know she is finally without the physical struggles she faced the last few years of her life. When I opened the April card kit, these cards just jumped into my mind, and had to be made.

I cut some ovals from some of the pattern paper in the kit, and a larger one from vellum to layer behind for softness. I stamped the florals on the ovals with Heather ink, and then the sentiments over the top in black. The background used the included Floating Flowers 3D embossing folder, and then I finished off with some of the Lilac Dazzling gems. Here are more photos of these finished cards:
