Simon Says Stamp Exclusives with Shari

Hi everyone! It’s Shari here with a really simple card to share.

I am starting to gear up for Spring card making, and Mothers Day always comes to mind. I’ve created a quick card that has a lot of impact using one of the new Full Size Card Dies from the Mothers and Fathers Day 2014 release.

I went for a white on white look to create an embossed effect with the Full Card Love Mum die. Super easy to do!! You could do the same thing with pastel card stocks as well, but you all know how I love the simplicity and clean look of white. I also added a single white embossed flower on color card stock to keep things simple.

Have you tried the embossed look with die cuts? I’ve shot a video of the process, hope you enjoy!

Thanks for joining me today. I sure hope you’re enjoying some well needed warmer weather!!! I sure am.

  1. I love the orange flower and the enamal dots – the flower is just marvelous. The background is so cool and I WANT IT!

  2. Love the white embossed flowers on the solid cardstock! You’ve got my mind running on all my other die and stamp sets that I can use this technique on. Thanks for sharing!

  3. Gorgeous card. Love the white on white with the pop of color…. so elegant in appearance!

  4. What a lovely CAS card those new dies are beautiful and seem to make things fast and simple thank you for the video!

  5. I never would have thought to use colored cardstock and white embossing for flower stamps! I’m going to have to try this out!

  6. A very effective card. Love the colorful flower, it makes everything really pop. It must be cold, you have a really thick coat on. Summer is coming for you soon. We are finally getting some cool air. Such a relief!

  7. Love this card – the single flower on the white is quite striking. Love the flower and die set !!!

  8. Dang! When the release was first revealed, I thought the moms and dads dies were great but that I could probably forego the expense for now. After watching the video, I don’t know how I can face mom’s day and dad’s day without them. So much for living within my budget. Oh vey!

  9. Beautiful card! Love this die and the colorful flower against the white. Great job. Thanks for sharing.
