SSS Festive Fun Release Blog Hop

 *This post contains affiliate links to Simon Says Stamp.


Happy Friday!  Today I'm participating in hop celebrating Simon Says Stamp's Festive Fun release.  You should be arriving here from Lisa Addesa's blog, and I've got the full list at the end of this post in case yo need it.

As with all good hops, there are prizes to be had.  Simon is giving away a $25 store credit at every stop along the hop.  All you need to do is a leave a comment to be entered.  In addition, with every $100 order of Festive Fun products this weekend, you'll automatically receive the above Cozy Together stamp and die set.



I'm sharing a couple of very simple cards created using the gorgeous Heartfelt Snowflake die.  The die was cut three times from Glossy White cardstock, and the die cuts were adhered to a panel of Bold Brights Color Blend cardstock with liquid adhesive.  The excess portions of the snowflakes were trimmed off the panel and the entire piece was then adhered directly to the card base.


The sentiments are from the Reverse Winter Sentiment Strips set and popped up with foam tape.

These were so quick and easy to make, you can easily mass produce these in a hurry.  I love the way the look of these Color Blend cardstock panels, but could certainly use ink blended cardstock, solid cardstock, or tone on tone patterned paper as well.


Your next stop on the hop is Anna-Karin Evaldsson, and the full hop list is below.  Happy hopping and good luck!
