My inspiration here was imagining a small cottage tucked away in a forest, so I choose the new Leafy Stencil and paired it with this darling Cottagecore Stamp Set from Simon Says Stamp's Shine On Release to create a sweet storybook scene. The stenciling is done with Tim Holtz Texture Paste to create dimension and given a dreamy glow with some ink-blending to set the stage for the die-cuts that are layered on top to make our memorable Cottagecore Missing You Card.

Do you make time for "Just Because" cards? They don't necessarily celebrate a specific occasion, but can just add a little sunshine, smile or chuckle to someone's day. I focused on smiles today so I chose the Quirky Daisy die set from Simon Says Stamp's Shine On Release for my Quirky Daisy Greeting Card. The colors evoke a sunny Summer day where a few blooms are attracting our BEAUTIFUL FLOURISH BUTTERFLY.
