Happiest with You - Simon Says Stamp February 2026 Card Kit

 Hello! I'm back today with another card using the newest February 2026 Simon Says Stamp Card Kit - Be Your Beautiful Self! This month's kit has some of the most fun and innovative products in it - I feel like I could play endlessly with them! The star of this kit is the Artful Palette layering templates and coordinating dies - so many possibilities! They work amazingly with the included Tim Holtz Curated Palette collection of papers. The included stamp set has some amazing sentiments that are a perfect fit for all the window options (there is a matching die set available HERE as well). There is some specialty cardstock, foam squares, cello stickers, and 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 Subscription service! There is a video HERE you can watch to learn more!

For this card, I really wanted to use that one really beautiful piece of pattern paper - I mean, isn't it pretty?!? I adhered it at an angle on a white cardbase, and trimmed the excess off the top and sides. For the sentiments, I really wanted to feature that amazing Cello Sticker Tape, but because it was shiny, I knew it would be tricky to stamp on it. However, it is super transparent, so I stamped on white cardstock, then just popped one of the stickers over the top of each sentiment! Nice and easy to trim with my paper trimmer and leave a nice simple border around it. I adhered those, and then die cut some hearts with the Artful Palette wafer dies and the reverse side of that same pattern paper. Finished off with a few Clear Dazzling gems! Here is a closer look at the finished card:

Elegant Floral Sympathy Cards - Simon Says Stamp April Card Kit

 Hello! I'm popping in to share my first cards using the newest April 2025 Simon Says Stamp Card Kit - Butterfly Blossoms! This month's kit is full of lovely spring and vintage vibes! The included stamp set by the same name features some lovely florals and pretty sentiments (there is also a coordinating die for this set available separately HERE). There are some fun collage papers, washi tape, pretty pattern paper...that's all not to mention the cardstock, envelopes, and more!

I started off with some die cut arch shapes, and used some of the lovely collage paper in the kit, along with the collage medium. I was able to do both of these arches from the same piece of the collage paper, and adhered it to the arches with a good layer of the collage medium on the bottom and top of the paper. I let it dry, them trimmed off the extra overhang. I added a bit of ink blending on one side of each of them with Cantaloupe and Butter inks. I used some of the Simple Stories washi tape in the kit directly on my cardbase, adhering at an angle, then mounted a larger vellum arch directly over the top, adding the floral arch over that with foam adhesive. I rounded off one corner on each card, added stamped sentiments from the Butterfly Blossoms stamp set, and finished off with a few Dazzling Gems in Opal for extra sparkle!
