Currently I am doing a Friday morning Lives at 9 am CT. Replays will be on my YouTube Channel.
I have a few requests to edit the Lives. Currently I am not going to edit them. This is for a couple of reasons:
1) Lives are new to me and we are going to stick with this format for a bit. I personally love Lives. I haven't watched an edited Live so I reserve the right to reconsider in the future if I think it's something I can fit in my schedule.
2) I don't want to spend the precious hours I have for creating new content, editing a Live. I will be bringing the exact same amount of traditional content and videos to my channel. Lives/replays are in addition to that content.
If you want to join us for some real-time crafty fun each week I would love to "see" you there.

Happy Tuesday, friends! The Simon Says Stamp July 2022 Card Kit, You Shine is now available. Today I have a couple of beautiful cards to share with you using the components from the kit (this kit is SO good!). My goal for my SSS Card Kit videos is to show ideas with the kit only. Additional tools like dies, small embellishments, and sometimes extra greetings (like the small sentiment strip on the window box card) can be added but aren't necessary to duplicate these designs. Let's get started!

Welcome to the June 2022 edition of my Simon Says Stamp monthly series, Making the Cut! This series featuring all things die cutting. This month I am sharing a butterfly slimline foiling card with matching stenciled envelope. Detail stenciling, text stamping, inking, and Distress Grit Paste through a stencil add the perfect textured backdrop for the beautiful foiled butterflies.

The stencil was cleaned off, replaced over the design and a bit of Translucent Grit Paste was applied through the stencil. The Grit Paste goes on a bit opaque but the Translucent Grit Paste will dry clear. I love the texture this adds to the design.
A Simon Says Stamp envelope was stenciled to match the card.
