Retro Border Note Cards - Simon Says Stamp August Card Kit

 Hello! I'm popping in to share my first card using the new August 2023 Simon Says Stamp Card Kit - Retro Wishes! This month's kit has a fun retro feel to the stamp set, with a good touch of florals and fun geometric elements. The included stamp set by the same name has some fun images to stamp as well as some great sentiments, there is a 3D embossing folder, pretty pattern paper...that's all not to mention the cardstock, embellishments, and more!


I fell in love with all the fun patterns in the stamp set in the kit - and considering the "retro" in the name, I couldn't resist pulling out some fun colors to fit that them, and choosing several of the fun images to stamp a border. And...with the magic of the MISTI, it was just too easy to make several of them - since I just lined each image up once, then stamped several times. I actually made doubles of each of these to have more on hand! I used Tropic (included in the kit), and added Aegean, Citrine, and Pucker inks. I purposely overlapped the center 3 images a bit. I then added my sentiments, stamped in black, then tore the edges of those panels before mounting with foam on my white cardbases. The torn edge adds a touch of interest. Finished off with some white jewels for a bit of sparkle and shine! Here are some more photos and views of these cards:
