I love using White and Red for Christmas Cards, so I thought I would challenge myself not to make one and the one I made was more for a Wedding or an Engagement.

To make it easier to write my post my card all the products I used are Simon Says Stamp.

First up I used the Falling Hearts stencil and used it to emboss my hearts I should have done that after I used the Wonky Frames to prevent the rollers making my hearts slightly flat.

I used the Cluster of Leaves, trimming it  slightly to fit my card. My flowers are the Hydrangea Petals die with Stitched Snowflakes cut in red in the centre. I've told a lie I have used another companies product the Tim Holtz Gearhead Thinlets die, some of the gears have circles for waste and I used them for the round centres.

Back to Simon Says Stamp products I used their Love die which I cut in red as well as white. The small sentiment is from their sentiment stamps called Messages for Everday and I stamped it first and when properly dried I used the Simon says Stamp Stitched Banners.  Finally some red butterflies using the Flickering Butterflies die.

Little did I know when I was making this card that England would play and win to the Quarter Finals.

To all my friends at Simon Says Stamp and the USA
 have a wonderful
 4th July.

  15. I have to say, that was very clever and creative of you to make the flowers the way you did. I would NEVER think to look at my snowflake dies nor the throw away center of any. I just had to tell you how impressed I am. ๐Ÿ˜Š
