I finally found some time to play with the Simon Says Stamp January Card Kit. This was a fun kit to use...the colors are scrumptious... the papers very on trend... and the little goodies are delicious!!
I know it might be hard to tell...
but can you see the wood grain on the white cardstock?
I also used some NEW Hero Arts Mid-Tone inks... Charcoal and Pale Tomato!
Next up is a fun card where I've used a Tim Holtz Alteration Die
off center.... it takes the pressure off from trying to be perfect.
I stamped the circle image twice and lifted it up
to look like a little chalk board.
Oh and the adorable hearts??? New die set for Simon!
Soooo... how about a GIVEAWAY??? Heidi is allowing me to give out a January Card kit. I'll choose a lucky winner from comments posted to this post before 11:59pm CST, Sunday evening, December 30th. I'll announce the Winner on Monday! Good Luck!!!

These are both great cards! I love how you've bunched the tickets, twine, ribbon and buttons on the first one, and the off-centre border on the second one is genius!
I love all the details on these cards and the second one really surprises me since I'd never think to put those colors together, yet I really like it. Thanks for sharing.

You wouldn't believe the road that brought me here. I watch Kristina Werner's card video on YouTube like I'm addicted. And I very well might be. :) She talks about Jennifer McGuire often so I checked out her videos. She did this gorgeous card for you in 2008 & that led me here. :)
Long road, but well worth it. I LOVE what you've done with this month's kit. I'm thinking about trying my hand at card making, but don't want to purchase a lot of supplies if it's not something I'm really interested in. Which I won't know until I try it. A card kit would be perfect. So *fingers crossed* I hope I win. :)
OMG!!! I just realized that I've seen some of your videos on the Hero Arts YouTube channel already. Small world. LOVE your work!
What a beautiful sentiment on the card with the tickets, I love it.
I have a hard time picking a sentiments for my cards that say what I want to say.
Love the card all together. The bottons are so cute.
Great cards - love the kit!
love the cards...great kit...thanks for the giveaway. Happy New Years !!
You always make such pretty cards. I loved the way you used the "On the Edge die" and how you placed the card off-center. Mandee
Just love both cards, Shari - looks like a fun kit. Thanks for the chance to win!!
What a FABULOUS card kit! It brings to mind so many possibilities! I do love working with tickets and really like the sayings. Fun! Angie

Shari, your cards are always fabulous but I really can't stop staring at that first one. It makes me want to sign up for the kits right now! I just love it! Happy New Year!
Gorgeous cards as always. The patterns and textures are wonderful. Happy New Year.
