Welcome to the Simon Says Stamp Diecember® Blog Hop!
This is a month that we celebrate the love of die-cutting in our crafting projects! Die cuts are a fantastic and fun way to add pizzazz to your cards! I used three of the new dies on my card share today: Missing You Dies, Dot Scallop Border Die, and Bear Hugs Die.
I die cut the bears from watercolor cardstock using the Bear Hugs Die. I applied Picked Raspberry, Barn Door, Carved Pumpkin, Squeezed Lemonade, Mowed Lawn, Salty Ocean, and Wilted Violet Distress Inks to the bears and hearts.
I die cut a panel for the top of my card from watercolor cardstock using the Dot Scallop Border Die. I applied Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean Distress Ink. I adhered the bears along the curve of the die cut panel as shown.
I stamped a greeting from the Uplifting Thoughts Stamp Set on the card above the rainbow bears using Black Licorice Ink.
I die cut the "missing you" greeting from smooth white cardstock adhered to Fun Foam using the scripty Missing You Dies. I applied Black Soot Distress Ink and adhered the greeting to the card along the die cut edge as shown.
I applied Glossy Accents to the hearts in the center of the bears and then finished the card with a scattering of diamond gems adhered with Ranger Multi Matte Medium.
