NEW RELEASE: Pure Sunshine 2014 Blog Hop!
We are so excited to share the newest Simon Says Stamp release: Pure Sunshine! To date, I feel like this is definitely our “sunniest” and most cheerful release. These days I like to put sunshine and rainbows on most all of my cards and doodling. Over the weekend, I created a rainbow by running ink pads across a canvas (you can see it on our instagram ;) Bright, cheerful colors and images are such a welcomed sense of happy in the day. Don’t you just love the sunny possibilities in the designs?

To celebrate this newest release, we would love it if you would ‘hop’ along with us while we share the delightful projects showcasing our newest stamps, dies and stencils!
There have been a lot of changes for me professionally lately. Change is hard and it seems it gets harder with age. Do you find that too? We’ve been working through a beautiful new website, but so many methods of doing things have been changed. We are learning new systems from the ground up. It’s for the better, but I won’t lie…it’s been hard. The cheerfulness of this release has really given me something to look forward to. I have leaned a lot on the people around me to be a rock during this hard time. Jason, my hubby and business partner, has been a rock (he’s been such a rock throughout our marriage). But one person in particular has really helped me (and the business) a lot! … ironically, she created the card below…
It is so fun to see how designers create with new products! Stephanie Klauck used the new Irregular Dots stencil and Tiny Tag Words stamp set to create this fun card. Don’t you just love how she used the stencil to mimic rocks on her card to go with the sentiment!? Check out how she used black cardstock to make the front of the card really pop.
We’re so excited to hear what you think of the new products! Now let’s get hopping!

Well I SINCERELY thank you for making the change over on the site, it is 1000 times easier to shop and find things. I’ve already placed three orders, and I know for a fact I wouldn’t have with the old site because I couldn’t see the images well enough to know if I wanted them (zoom feature). And there’s so many other well thought out things that make it all flow so smooth! So thank you for that, again :) What makes me smile is when my 6 year old (without being asked!!!) decides to kiss me on the cheek for no reason at all. She RARELY does that, so it’s a huge bright spot in my day! LOVE the new release btw!
It makes me smile when my kids discover new things. I love the expression they get on their face.
Love the new website and the new release is great! Great new stencils, stamps and dies at SSS!
What brightens my day is seeing my son come into his own. I have been diagnosed with a terminal illness so spending time with him has become more precious. on a lighter note I love the new releases, they really spark my creative juices!!!
WOW! Love all of the new release! The web site is such a super improvement. Before I could not get order confirmation or order shipped emails and now………..well Simon Says Stamps simply ROCKS!
I am soooooooooooo looking forward to the event in Columbus May 30th and 31st. So glad that I can be a part of this wonderful event.
Thank you Simon Says Stamps!

I have to agree that the new release is full of ‘Happy’. I have been drooling over it for from the moment I saw the catalog! Wish I could just take the whole lot! My two kids are the ‘sunshine’ of my life and I always smile when I watch them play with my husband. The three of them are my whole world!
I just love the new release. Hearing my girls giggle always brightens my day!

Two squirrels playing in my backyard brightened my day, And all these new Simon Says Stamp products did their part, too! Thanks for the blog hop – getting ready to check out all the new awesomeness from my favorite bloggers. :-)
Loving this release. Lots of elegance and whimsy to please many occasions and styles. After two days of rain and hazardous driving conditions, listening to my husband’s jokes and witty puns makes me laugh, Also, sharing time with our granddaughter, hearing her laugh and sing and use her unique vocabulary is a blast. Happy SSS blog hoping. Cheers!
I don’t think there has yet been a release I’ve planned to buy so many products out of :D
It always makes me smile, when my cats have fun playing, running around making funny sounds of joy or chasing their tail :)
BTW – great release!

Thinking about my children (both are away at college) brings sunshine to my days. Also, now being retired, going to my studio and creating is such a wonderful thing. I love SSS and have been a dedicated follower and customer for quite some time. Thank you for all your hard work.
