The Simon Says Stamp April 2013 Card Kit is quite possibly my favorite Simon Card Kit. Ever. The colors are some of my very favorite!
For my first project using this kit, I wanted to share how easy it is to create a layout from the components in the card kit... and still have tons of product left over to create more paper crafted goodness!
Here's my layout featuring the April Card Kit and additional Simon Says Stamp Exclusive Stamps & Dies:
I used exlcusive SSS dies to create the die cut title for my page and created my own die cut and stamped embellishments...
I embellishmed the computer generated journaling with stamping.... my favorite. I tucked a couple of the envelopes from the Card Kit under the journaling strip.
Heart embellishments make me happy. :) I added a touch of stamping to the large die cut heart after I had finished the video.... I felt like it was a little plain and the stamping adds just the right touch.
More hearts...
