Well, it's been a minute hasn't it? Simon Says Stamp are finally out with a new release after the Create event postponed the April one. They are making up for it with an incredible selection of new products and they call it their 'Always There' release, which I encourage you to explore because the release is live NOW!
For my first card I'm working with the new Floral Word Builder stamps and dies together with the Mythic Blooms embossing folder. I framed out the card in white using the A2 Frames die set which I consider a craft room essential.
I started with the new embossing folder and I embossed an A2 panel of Simon's 'Apricot' cardstock. I adhered this to the card base and framed it out using the A2 Frames.
I stamped the L, O, V and E from the Floral Word Builder. The set of letters included will allow you to spell out several words. I coloured with the following Copic markers:-
Letters - R29, R27, R24
L - YR07, YR14, Y38
O - YR21, YR31, YR30
V - R22, R20, R00
E - YR02, E95, YR82
Green - G21, YG61
I die cut and applied each letter to the embossed background.
I wanted this card to be very simple so I resisted the usual sequins and decided to glaze each red letter instead and so they are all lovely and glossy and catch the light when the card is handled. I use Spellbinders Glaze & Glue because it is the only formula I've found that is non-yellowing. Don't be put off by initial application. It will dry with no yellow.
Happy crafting and shopping friends!
