SSS Yay You, You Did It!

Hi folks!  I've got a quick and easy card to share today using some old and new Simon Says Stamp products.

To start, I created the background using my Wavy Circles Background.

The background was inked up using three different Pawsitively Saturated ink colors: Taffy, Blush, and Citrine.

I started with the Taffy, inking it up in the bottom corner of the background, and using a blending brush to soften where the ink ended.

After that I moved onto the Blush, inking it diagonally across the middle of the background and again using a blending brush to soften out the edges.  You can repeat this process to get a nice smooth inking if there are some rough spots or areas where the coverage isn't even. 

Finally, I finished up with Citrine in the top right corner, same thing, using the blending brush to soften the transition.

The background was trimmed down and adhered to a black cardstock mat.


For the sentiment, I pulled out this new You Did It die.  I cut the shadow piece from black cardstock, and the sentiment itself from plain white cardstock as well as cardstock that I pressed the Taffy inkpad into.

The two sentiment pieces were adhered together slightly offset, and then to the shadow piece.  The finished sentiment was popped up with foam tape.

Clean and simple and pretty quick to put together.  

Hope your week is going well!
