Simon Says Spring Release..



Today is a pretty exciting day!  It's the spring release over at Simon Says Stamp.  I feel honored to be joining so many talented ladies today, to share all these new goodies!  If you want to start at the beginning of the hop, click over to the Simon Says Stamp blog for a complete list.  If you are following along, you should have jumped here from Jess's blog.  That girl is good!  I can't way to see what she has made up for today!

So let's move on to the card...I have a super fun new set with matching dies to share today.  The set is called Hourglass.  It features a pennant shape with lots of fun patterns.  You can also buy dies to go along with it.  Here is my card...

IMG_1290_edited-1

I stamped 2 of the images, one in Melon and one in Slate.  Then I cut out several of the dies in vellum, heat embossing a sentiment on one and then sewing them all along the edge.  The hello sentiment is from another new ADORABLE tag set, called Tiny Tags, that is a must have for your crafting stash!

I added in some enamel dots just for a little extra color.  Once I had the card front done, I popped it up on foam tape to the white card base.

So that is it for me today.  Did you know that you have 17 chances to win a goodie bag from Simon Says?  There are 17 stops on the hop, so be sure to leave a comment along the way for more chances to win.  Commenting will stay open until6:00pm EST on Thursday February 27, 2014.  

Your next stop on the hop is the very talented, Lorraine Aquilina.  Thank you so much for stopping in today!
