Simon Says Stamp Card Kit and new Tombow Adhesives


I recently won an older card kit (May 2012) from Simon Says Stamp, and I thought I would pull it out to make a couple birthday cards.  The kit itself isn't necessarily geared towards birthday cards, but I was able to get a couple done, as well as a congratulations card.  There's still a ton of product left, so I will definitely be using the kit again, but here's what I have for you today.


The very nice people at Tombow also sent me some new adhesives, so that's what I used with these cards.  They sent some of their clear adhesive dots, which I was really impressed by.  The hot air balloon on the first card is a transparency piece, and you really can't see the adhesive at all.  I also got some of their little square dimensional adhesives which I used for all the popped up pieces, including the entire fussy cut flower portion of the card below.


A very fun kit, so glad you stopped by!

Supplies Used:  Simon Says Stamp May 2012 Card Kit; Tombow - Power Tabs, Foam Tabs, Mono Adhesive; Twinery - Charcoal Twine; Basic Grey - White Alpha Stickers; Spectrum Noir - True Black Marker; Hero Arts - Soft Pool Shadow Ink; The Craft's Meow - Birthday Pun Stamp Set; CTMH - Chocolate ink
