Simon Says Stamp – Dear Friend Release Blog Hop – Day 1

An Encouragement card with the Simon Says Stamp Peony Background & New Mini Ink Cubes Sets!

Hello Crafty Friends!  Welcome to my Blog, thanks for joining us for Day 1 of the Simon Says Stamp Blog Hop celebrating the amazing Dear Friend Release. You will be surprised at how easy it is to color in this beautiful background peony on vellum! I am using two of the new Pawsitively Saturated Ink Cube sets, the Pink Blooms Set and Gray Skies Set to do the coloring. This card was super easy to create and one that would be great for mass producing. The Simon Says Stamp Background Peony Stamp and the Reverse Encouraging Words Sentiment Strips make it effortless. Watch the how-to tutorial below. I hope you get a chance to check out this amazing release over at the Simon Shop!
