Simon Says Stamp DieCember® Release Blog Hop Day 2

12.6 DieCember Blog Hop
Happy Friday crafty friends! You should have arrived here from the blog of the AMAZING Vicky Papaioannou. Thank you for joining me on Day 2 of the Simon Says Stamp DieCember® release. So many great new stamps and dies and the new Art Supplies die is one of my favorites of all, and has definitely put me in the watercolor mood for this release. I cut out and colored in the watercolor pan set, then added the same colors to create an artsy background. It paired perfectly with a sentiment from the Simon Says Stamp Crafty Friend stamp set.

Keeping with the watercolor mood, I created a watercolor background to show off the new The World Needs die. This die takes up almost the entire card front, so it is perfect for a colorful background.
