Hi everyone!

Today I’m playing along with the current Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge using products kindly sent to me by Penny Black.

Do you have a stamp you reach for year after year? I have a few, especially this beautiful Wintry Whites stamp (30-634) which I reach for when I see the snowdrops appearing in my garden. You can see the other cards I’ve made with it in previous years: 2021, 2022 and 2023.

For today’s card, I stamped, coloured and fussy cut the snowdrop image, cutting off the vase outline to leave just the stems. I then used the largest die from the Heart Balloons die set (51-493) to cut white cardstock that I spritzed with Wonderland Distress Mica Stain and lightly sponged with Frayed Burlap distress ink.

I cut the fabulous YOU die (51-760) from some speciality paper and adhered it to a panel on my cardbase. I stamped part of a sentiment from the Fragrant Friends stamp set (30-807) and arranged the die cut elements. Finally I added the tiny bow from the Little Ornaments die set (51-090), butterflies from the Flourish and Butterflies die set (51-198) and a few gems.

Thanks for stopping by!
