Today is the 14th which means the newest Simon Says Stamp card kit is available for purchase. The July 2014 card kit is called Sending Happy Mail and has an awesome exclusive stamp set and great papers from the Pink Paislee Pen Pals Collection! ;)
I created a card that uses one of the envelope images from the stamp set in a fun way. I stamped it three times for the main part of the envelope and then stamped it again three more times to cut out the flap area so I could attach it on top to make it look like the envelopes were open.
I then cut an opening in the 'v' part of the envelopes so I could add some patterned paper and make it look like they were letters inside the envelopes. I stamped a red heart on the center paper and covered it with glossy accents for some fun detail.
When I adhered the envelopes onto the card, I put foam adhesive on the center one for some added dimension. To create the sentiment, I first stamped the Happy Mail and then cut apart the Happy Thoughts so I could stamp it underneath the main sentiment. I love how easy it is to customize sentiments with clear stamps!
I also created another card that is over on the Simon Says Stamp blog today. It includes a video showing how I created the card. ;)
