SSS DIEcember® Blog Hop! Day #2

December 3, 2020 Christmas cards, Simon Says Stamps

Hello hello everyone, Welcome to Simon Says Stamp DIEcember® Blog Hop. Today is day #2. I am so thrilled to be participating in the blog hop after a long time. Yesterday was blog hop day #1 and I am sure you had a feast to your eyes with so many gorgeous inspirations using wonderful new dies from the DIEcember® release.

You should have come from the talented Vicky Papaioannou‘s blog. If this is the first visit, then I will list all the designers later in the post. Today I have a Christmas card using the new Snowflakes Frame die.

Merry Christmas

I used red cardstock panel for the background and sponged red distress inks in various shades to add depth to the panel. Then I die cut the new Snowflakes Frame using gold mirror cardstock and snowflakes dies using gold glitter cardstock. I then glued then on the background panel. I love the gold against the red background. For the sentiment, I used Simon’s Merry Christmas Script die. I die cut using Simon’s Midnight Green cardstock. A few pearls drops on the snowflakes to finish off the panel. I adhered the panel on the card base to finish off the card.
