Simon Says Sramp - Shine On

Hello everyone.  The new SHINE ON release from Simon Says Stamp (SSS) is live now!

I have 2 cards to share today.  First up is a fun summer beach-themed card featuring Beachcomber Seashells dies, Embossed Squovals dies, Dotty Contour embissing fokder (EF) and Chill Vibes stamp set

Bristol paper was used for all elements and ink blending with dye inks was done to add colour.  The Embossed Squivals gives a debossed detail around the perimeter. Created the frame by using two dies together.  The Squovals nesting die set coordinate perfectly with these.  The sentient was stamped with    and heat embossed Versafine Onyx Black ink then heat embossed with clear glitter embossing powder for a bit of sparkle.  Assembled the card onto a white  card base to finish. 

Couldn’t let Pride month pass without at least one rainbow creation, so my next card is a colourful birthday card featuring the Tall Happy Cover die and Botanical Buds stamp. Birthday was from the older Bouncy Hapoy Birthday die. Its shadow was due cut from vellum.  After layering the entire sentiment, fussy cutting was needed to isolate it.

The Happy cover was die cut three times from Bristol paper and stacked for dimension. The background is Rainbow pattern paper. The Botanical Buds were stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black ink on X-Press It paper, coloured with Copic Sketch markers then fussy cut out.  There are coordinating dies.  Didn’t want these cuties to get lost in the bright background so used colours that were not part of the rainbow colours (purple & pink). Assembled the card onto a white card base to 

 finish.
