Hello, friends! Today I'm sharing a trio of cards with the Simon Says Stamp September 2022 Card Kit, Let's Celebrate. My goal for my SSS Card Kit videos is to show ideas with the kit only. Additional tools like dies, small embellishments, etc. are added as needed to make the kit shine! I am loving the colors of the kit this month and took direction from the patterned paper when creating!

To create the background, I die cut the Simon Says Stamp Vine Background Die three times from the smooth white cardstock included in the kit and adhered each one to the Smoke Notecards also included in the kit.
The greetings were die cut with Simon Says Stamp Nested Ovals Dies and adhered to each card as shown by hiding liquid adhesive behind the embossed areas.
The butterflies were inked with Hero Arts Soft Olive and Charcoal inks for embossed resist and die cut before being adhered to the design with the foam adhesive squares from the kit.
The cards were finished with a scattering of heart accents.

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. Please make sure to SUBSCRIBE to my YouTube Channel and click the notification bell so that YouTube alerts you when I'm going live. I am trying to reach 100,000 subscribers so if you haven't subscribed yet I would SO appreciate it! I am grateful for my community on all the platforms!
Thanks to everyone who joined me today! I had a blast visiting with everyone. ❤️
