Sentiments as the star of your card

Hello lovelies,

Thanks so much for stopping by my blog. I am sharing two cards made using the newest release from Simon Says Stamp, “Good Luck Charm”. If you follow me on Instagram, you know I enjoy adding thread details to my card. The Simon Says Stamp and CZ Design Well Wishes Clear stamp set has the perfect large sentiments that you can customize with little details thread details.

Here is what you need:

• Simon Says Stamp and CZ Design Well Wishes Clear stamp set
• White cardstock – 2 letter size sheets
• Stampendous rose gold glitter embossing powder  
• Baby blue embossing powder
• Versamark ink
• Powder tool
• Paper piercer
• Ruler
• Thread – peach, beige, baby pink, turquoise, baby blue, light brown
• Foam Tape
• Gems and tiny hearts to decorate

Here are the steps

• Cut one sheet of white cardstock to two pieces of 4.25×8.5 inches. Fold each piece in half to form your card base.
• From the other sheet cut two pieces of 3.75×3.75 inches to form your panels.
• Apply powder to the front of both panels ensuring you cover the entire surface.
• Stamp the sentiments with Versamark Ink on both panels
• Add baby blue embossing powder to one and  rose gold embossing powder to the other. Heat set both.

• Use your paper piercer and ruler to pierce small holes along the side of and between letters to get the desired effect. Use the markings on the ruler to ensure the holes stay the same distance apart.
• Stitch with thread in random colors through holes as you desire. You can use multiple colors on one letter or one colour. Use tape to secure thread at the back of your project as you complete stitching each color.
• Mount both panels on your card bases using foam tape
• Add embellishments, gems, hearts, sequins etc. as desired
• Your cards are finished!
