Favorite Things Release Blog Hop

Hi, crafty friends. I have a set of monochromatic Thank You cards to share today featuring THIS new release from Simon Says Stamp…

To create these cards, I stamped THESE layering images in the center of a white cardstock panel cut with one of THESE dies. I wanted to do monochromatic so I used three inks for each book in one color family. So, for the first one for example, I used a light, medium, and dark shade of pink ink…

After the book was stamped on each panel, I cut THIS coordinating die from THIS masking paper and laid it on top of the image. I stamped THIS text background on top in a coordinating ink color. The mask protects the main image and leaves a white border around the image which I feel helps it stand out on a one layer panel.

I added a black mat behind each stamped panel using a larger rectangle from the same die set as above. Then I adhered the piece to a colored A2 top folding note card.

I white heat embossed the sub sentiments from the same set on a black banner and adhered it along the bottom of the book image. I die cut THESE hearts from foil or glitter cardstock to finish off the design.

I also created coordinating envelopes from patterned paper using THIS die. I have lots more information about this on THIS previous blog post.

Here’s a closer look…

I plan on giving these to my son’s teachers at the end of the school year. I personalized them by creating them in the teacher’s favorite color.
