Happy Friday!!! After some serious technical issues this week I am SO glad this week is almost over!! I did have a chance to make a quick and simple card using some of the goodies in the new Simon Says Stamp March Card Kit - if you missed my unboxing video of the kit you can check it out HERE:

Now on to the card!
I had a hard time choosing which stamp set (yes the kit comes with 2!!) to use from the March card kit - but ultimately decided to use this rubber boot floral image from the Showers and Flowers set. I love that it goes so well with some of the patterned papers in the kit!
I stamped the image and the sentiment onto some Distress watercolor card stock with SSS Intense Black ink then watercolored them with one of the SSS Daniel Smith Watercolor dot charts and my detail water brush. I used the Nuvo Aqua Shimmer pen to watercolor in the boots - in the video I'm able to show better the full on SPARKLE effect - love!!!
On the inside of the card I stamped another of the sentiments from the stamp set and added strips of the same patterned papers. I paired the card with the awesome khaki woodgrain envelope (also from the kit but I've got them linked below as well - I had to order a pack of them after seeing them in real life!!) and that was it!

I get asked a lot about where to purchase the supplies I use in my videos and blog posts. I list all the supplies I use at the end of my posts (below) or in the description box directly below my video on YouTube. If the products have little icons below the image it means there's more than one place it can be purchased. You can hover over the icons and it will tell you what store that link will take you to. Compensated affiliate links used when possible at no extra cost to you. Affiliate linking is what keeps my blog and YouTube channel up and running and enables me to work from home with my kids! I appreciate your support more than words can say!
I occasionally receive product for free from stores/manufacturer with no obligation on my part to use/review - I only use and share what I personally love. Everything else I purchase myself!
