Hi crafty friends! I am thrilled to be joining Simon Says stamp on Day 2 of the Fun and Festive Blog hop. Have you checked out the new Fun and Festive release yet?? So many great stamps, dies and stencils for all of your holiday crafting. You should have arrived here from the blog of the super talented Kristina Pokazanieva . To see all the stops on the hop, scroll down below or start at the Simon Says Stamp Blog HERE. If you haven't noticed in the banner above, there is a special CODE to add to your order to get a free Festive Stickles!!! This offer is only valid until 10/14 at 11:59 pm EST.
For this release I received the Snowflake Tags Wafer Dies and the Tiny Words Christmas stamps:
I decided to create some mini 3 1/4 x 4 1/2 inch cards using these dies and stamps. They are perfect tiny note to give with a holiday gift! I cut each tag from watercolor paper, then inked them up with Distress Oxides. Then I stamped a tiny sentiment onto each one using Archival Jet Black ink. I inlaid silver flakes cut from glitter paper into each tag then covered each one with a white flake and coordinating drop of Nuvo drops. The backgrounds were created with silver ink and the Diagonal Stripes die.
If you have created something with the new release, be sure to add it to the Fun and Festive Gallery over on the Simon Says Stamp Blog so everyone can be inspired by your creations!!! Your next stop on the hop is the wonderfully creative Mindy Baxter...for the full hop order see below.

Gorgeous Cheiron!!!! So inspiring!
Posted by: Kim Faucher | October 14, 2018 at 05:58 PM
I like how you used the single snowflake as the focus of each card and just created a new background.This would make mass producing a lot of cards at one time a lot easier! Thanks for the great idea!

I love your mini cards! These Snowflake Tags Wafer Dies are awesome. :)

I love what you did with the snowflakes tags. I don't have much use for tags but this is a great way to use the ones I have. I love the vibrant watercolours and the diagonal striped background is perfect for colourful tags
Posted by: Jackie Price | October 14, 2018 at 09:17 PM
Oh how pretty! I love your use of the new gift tag dies to be the focal shape on the front of the card! All the pretty watercolor that you did on the tags is beautiful!
