This is the fist time I’ve ever created cards with a Spellbinders card kit. I saw it advertised, and I was amazed with how much product it included. The one thing that really sold me on it was the dies for the heart shaped glasses. I felt like I really needed that in my stash. Lol! I loved this kit! I only created 5 cards with it for this video, but I could have created tons more. I’m going to have some of my crafty friends over soon to help me use up the rest of the goodies from this kit.
Card #1: Hexagon Shapes Card
Card #2: Pattern Stamping Card
Card #3: Oh Joy Sunglasses Card
Card #4: Sunglasses Sunshine Card
Card #5: Stickers and Pattern Paper Birthday Card

Happy summer, everyone! I can finally say that! Yay! I have a really fun collection of cards to show you all today! I adore Hero Art’s May 2019 card kit. It’s filled with darling little images of scissors, a paint brushes, yarn and knitting needles, (just to name a few of my favorites)–there’s something for almost every type of crafter. Personally, I am a crafter-of-all-trades; I love to paint and color and sew and knit and crochet–I love it all!
I must admit that even though I love these stamps and dies, it sat on my desk for a while. All of the small images kinda overwhelmed me; I’m more comfortable designing cards with larger images. However, once I got started playing with this kit, that overwhelming feeling floated away. Below you’ll find pictures of all my cards, my video tutorial, and links to the supplies I used.
Cards 1 & 2: Stripe of Craft Supplies
Card #3: Rainbow Craft Supplies
Card #4: Bouquet of Craft Supplies
Cards 5 & 6: Heart Knitting Yarn & Needles

Thank you for your support, the lovely comments you send me, and your kindness!! I’ve been creating videos for over 3 years, and I don’t think I’ll ever get tired of it. I love sharing with you the cards I create! It’s a hobby that involves a lot of fun products, some basic tools and–my favorite–art supplies. As I’ve mentioned before, I love creating these tiny works of art to mail out and brighten someone’s day!
Also, at the beginning of my video I show of few pictures of my craft room, aka my dining room. I don’t have an extra room in my house to use as a craft room, but the dinning room works out great–I have a really big table, I can work on my cards in between cooking in the kitchen, and I get to be near my family. The down side is we don’t eat in there anymore except on major holidays. I try to keep it tidy because it’s visible when company stops by. I’ve mentioned in my past video’s about the gorgeous peonies blooming outside of my craft room windows, and I wanted to share a little glimpse of those too since they are blooming now! The two book cases on either side of my windows house all my supplies, and in my opinion, there’s nothing prettier to look at than art supplies–well, it runs a close second place to my peonies.
The cards I’m showing you today are from Simon Says Stamp’s June card kit. It’s called, “Leafy Frames.” I love the stamps from this kit, and I had so much fun using the products from this kit to design these cards. Links to most of the supplies I used are listed below.

Hello crafty friends! I designed 5 cards using Pink & Main’s May card kit. This card kit is perfect for all of us book nerds out there! I’m one of the biggest–Lol! I couldn’t pass this one up. I love all the images in the stamp set called, “Page Turner.” My favorite is the large stamp of the bookshelf! All the details on this stamp are just fabulous–love the little cat! Below you’ll find close-up pictures of my set of cards, as well as a list of the copic markers I used to color in card 3 and 5. There is also a link to my YouTube video where you can watch the creation of these cards.
Hello and welcome to my blog! I want to show you the fun cards I designed using Simon Says Stamp’s May card kit–it is a beauty! I love the floral stamp set included called Delicate Flowers and the Moda Scrap pattern papers–these were my favorite items in the kit. In designing these cards I was all over the map; I used a lot of my favorite techniques to create them. (Also, the lilac and tulip you see in these pictures are fresh from my garden! I’m loving the spring weather! Now, if it would just stop raining. Lol!)
I hope these designs inspire you to try out some of these super fun techniques!
