You Are So Special - Simon Says Stamp May 2022 Card Kit

  Hello! I'm popping in to share another card using the BRAND NEW May 2022 Simon Says Stamp Card Kit - Brushed Flowers! This month's kit bright, happy, and so fun for spring! The included stamp set by the same name has some whimsical flower images and great sentiments, there is a fun mini ink cube pack, of course some sweet pattern paper, clear embossing powder...that's all not to mention the cardstock, envelope, and more!

While the first card I shared used those bright and gorgeous ink colors, today's card focuses on the more soft and romantic colors of the gorgeous pattern paper!

I'm always a sucker for pretty pattern paper, and I fell in love with this gorgeous design, and knew I wanted to use it for a card. I didn't want to cover up too much of it, so I opted for a vellum panel to add my sentiment and stamped embellishment!

I die cut a piece of vellum with the middle sized Wonky Hearts dies, and then using my MISTI, stamped my design in two parts. I started with the sentiment, heat embossing in gold, then added the stamped leaf heat embossed in white for some interest.

Since it was vellum, it can always be tricky to adhere it to a card. I love to hide liquid adhesive behind embellishments, so that worked perfectly! I added a twine bow on the bottom corner, and attached both it and the vellum heart to my pattern paper. I then adhered that pattern paper to my white cardbase, and embellished with some white jewels - using the upper right one to hide another dot of liquid adhesive. That was just enough to hold that corner in place, and leave it with a bit of a free-floating dimension that I love with vellum!
