Happy Saturday crafty friends! I am so happy to be joining Simon Says Stamp to celebrate their newest release Cheering for You. I have two cards to share with you today using products from the new the Cheering For You release.
Before I get to the cards, I wanted to let you know that Simon Says Stamp is giving away a $25 coupon to every stop on the hop from each blogs comment section. The winners will be posted on the Simon Says Stamp blog on Wednesday the 31st of July. The winner should emai Simon Says Stamp to claim their prize :)
The two cards I created today are two different looks with the new Cheering Wafer die The first card uses the Crimped Blossoms Embossing Folder. I embossed a panel of a panel of Distress Watercolor Cardstock then inked blended over it with inks from the Blue Lagoons Ink Cubes then sanded over it to reveal the white core of the cardstock. Once that was done I splattered some Gilded Foundry Wax over the top. I cut out the coordinating flower and ink blended in the the center and added some more Foundry Wax to the center. Finally, I cut the Cheering die from Gold Metallic Kraftstock and embossed the sentiment from the Cheering stamps in gold.
For the second card, I used one of the A2 Acetate Cards to create a festive card with the Cheering die and a bunch of "confetti" dots punched out from gelli prints I had in my stash. I adhered the dots all over the front, added the die cut sentiment then added some more dots to fill in the space, and also popped some up with foam tape. Super fun and easy card to create!

Your floral card is beautiful. I love the design of that embossing folder. Your second card is so much fun with all the colored dots.

The confetti is so fun! I have any made one card with these shaker covers and I thought my bits were too bulky. I need to try paper circles!
I miss sanding embossed images - I will have to pull out my sanding block. Thanks for sharing these fun ideas.

The sanded embossed design of your 1st card gives such a beautiful, vintage vibe, and I love the idea of added a bit of color to the center of the white focal flower!
The 2nd card is super-cute and super-fun!
