The last couple of days I've shared a couple of masculine style cards showcasing the Simon Says Stamp June 2013 Card Kit of the Month. If you missed those cards you can check them out HERE and HERE. Today, I wanted to share how you can take this kit and create a more feminine or "girly" style card. :)
I used the patterned papers, cardstock and stamped greeting from the June 2013 Card Kit and paired them with additional SSS exclusive dies and stamps for this sweet thank you card.
To create the heart shaped window on my card I first trimmed down my patterned papers to 4"x5.25" (I used two different patterned papers). I took the more solid patterned paper and temporarily adhered it to the front of my card base using a sticky note so that it wouldn't shift when I die cut the SSS Thank You Heart Die (the "thank you" die) from the layered papers. I set the "thank you" heart aside and then die cut the solid heart from the gray patterned paper. I cut a sheet of plastic slightly larger then the heart and sandwiched it between the front of the card base and the first die cut layer. Then I adhered the solid die cut paper and the gray one right on top. I replaced the "thank you" die cut heart inside and glued it in place. I added some glitter pen to the greeting for sparkle.
I die cut the SSS Folded Banner Die from vellum and stamped the greeting from the Kelly Purkey Dude Stamp Set using Hero Arts Unicorn White Ink. I glued the banner over the die cut heart window.
I finished the card with die cut and/or stamped hearts using the SSS Lots of Hearts Stamp Set and coordinating dies, SSS Large Holiday Shapes and SSS Mini Hearts Die.
I added Glossy Accents to some of the hearts for dimension.
I die cut an additional solid heart from one of the red patterned papers in the kit and adhered it to the inside of the card so that the color would peek through the window to the front of the card!
