I Still Love You - Simon Says Stamp Anniversary Card

Good morning! I don't know if you happened to see the anniversary card I posted yesterday (click HERE to view), but this was the second of the 3 I created! I used a similar layout, but some different colors, sentiments, and embellishments for a slightly different look - but mostly using the same Simon Says Stamp supplies!


I started off by creating the pattern on the background with a the Triangle Blast stencil and my Green Parade Shimmer Powder - I love using shimmer powders with stencils! I used watercolor cardstock. layed my stencil over the top, dusted a bit of the shimmer powder over the stencil, then misted with water before removing the stencils.


Once that had time to dry nice and thoroughly, I chose a favorite part of the design and die cut the medium size of the Wonky Hearts dies from that panel, and then stamped a couple sentiments from both the Love Always stamp set and I Still Do stamp set by CZ Design on it. Love how perfectly they work together!


I created a card base from Fog cardstock, then die cut a Wonky Rectangle from Cream cardstock - just a bit softer than stark white cardstock, and felt like it fit the colors better.


I created a black banner for this one using a strip of black cardstock, and trimming the edges with a small die from Sentiment Labels Wafer Die, then layered everything together, adding the heart with some foam adhesive. I finished off with some enamel dots from the Pinkfresh Super Cool collection. Can you see the bit of sparkle from the shimmer powders? And yet it definitely feels like a masculine card still!
