Simon Says Stamp - MAY 2025 Card Kit, BEAUTIFUL AND CURIOUS




Hello Lovelies! I have a pair of cards for you today from Simon Says Stamp's May 2025 Card Kit - Beautiful and Curious. I love that card kits make me try items that I don't use that often and for this month's kit, it's the Distress Crayons. After completing these two cards, I can definitely say I've been missing out on the Crayons!


Each kit will come with 4 crayons and I've used mine to watercolor a bouquet for one card and create a fully colored background for the other. In today's post, I'll share highlights of one card and link the short video that walks you through the other card.

Butterfly card with "Be Your Beautiful Self" text on a red, yellow, and green background, accented with floral patterns and bright colors.
