Gifts, Cards, and Cake - Simon Says Stamp

Good morning! Stopping by today with yet another card I made last month (oops - I know a bit late to share!) - using some beautiful stamps and dies from Simon Says Stamp paired up with a bit more of the Shimmer Powders that I have so fallen in love with!


For this card, I die cut a piece of plain cardstock using Nested Circles Wafer Dies, then used the negative as a mask to lay over my watercolor paper. No need to adhere it in place - I simply laid it over the top of a panel of watercolor paper die cut with the largest Stitched Rectangle Die, misted the circle with water, sprinkled on some Atlantis Burst Shimmer Powder, then removed the mask, and set it aside to mix, blend, and dry!


Once it dried SUPER thoroughly (think overnight perhaps?) - I used my MISTI to line up and stamp a fun sentiment from Big Birthday Greetings, stamping it a couple times for a nice clear impression. I added the cake image from the stamp set, and another small sentiment heat embossed on a thin strip of black cardstock. Finished off by adding a a scallop mat die cut using a Mama Elephant Basic Die, and added the entire thing to a coordinating colored cardbase!
