Today I have 3 fun cards for you featuring the new Printmaking Hearts stamps and dies for you! All supplies are linked at the bottom of this post 🙂

The first card I have features the Printmaking Hearts stamped in all the rainbow colors using my Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Saturated Ink Cubes. I stamped each of the 3 layers of each heart in a different color. Then I added black, white and Gilded Foundry Wax splatter to my hearts then cut them out. I adhered them to a panel of SImon Says Stamp Black cardstock that I had stamped and embossed with the You are the Sweetest sentiment.

For my second card, I went with a different colorway and stamped and embossed the Printmaking Hearts in gold, then stamped them with Salvaged Patina and Lucky Clover Distress Oxides. I added a sentiment strip that I stamped with the Lucky Clover Distress Oxide to match and mounted my hearts onto a panel of Audrey Blue cardstock.

For the final card, I used the Printmaking Hearts dies only, and a panel of Distress Kraft Heavystock that I had painted an abstract pattern onto using the pigments from my Distress Watercolor Pencils. I painted the entire panel then cute the hearts out. i inked the edges of the hearts and popped them up with foam tape and added them to a white panel that was stamped with the You Make My Heart Happy sentment. I added the finished panel to a card cut from Schoolhouse Red Cardstock.

Thank you for hopping by today! I hope you enjoyed this fun peek at the possibilities with these stamps and dies. Be sure to hop around to the amazing designers on this hop for even more inspiration and chances to win and join Simon Says Stamp again tomorrow for day 2 of the hop!
