Keep On Shining

Happy Monday!!  Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend, and was able to kick back and relax.  I found myself able to do a lot of crafting which was nice, but also had to do the usual " this and that" around my house.

Today - I thought I would share with you one of a few creations I have made with the Simon Says Stamp April 2014 Card Kit.

I made a few cards, but this one was my favorite out of all of them that I made.  I did take a beginning point of my card design from Jennifer McGuire in THIS video.  She used the same sentiment and stamped it several times as a background, and I just loved that.  I did of course alter the rest of the design to make it my own.  I took the mini sun burst stencil from The Crafter's Workshop ( I recently got this stencil in my last haul featured on my YT Channel) and I inked up using a sponge dauber some Morocco Memento Luxe Pigment Ink.  I love this stencil and the effect it gives.  I used my staples when I make a card it seems anymore the Femme Frames from Mama Elephant, and die cut the stamped/stenciled panel, and also a piece of black card stock.  I finished up the card by stamping in Onyx Black ink the "Keep on Shining" sentiment in the middle of my sun burst, and for a final touch, I just love these 4 mm sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.

Hope you were able to pick up this card kit!  It is so much fun!  For all the supplies used, I've linked them below!  Enjoy your day!
