Hello my crafty fiends! It is taking me a while to write my posts as we do spend most of our time at the beach. But finally today I am back with my 10 cards using the July card kit by SimonSaysStamp.

Giveaway

There is a giveaway currently running on my blog for this kit, so if you want to enter please visit THIS POST.

And here are all the cards that I made using the kit

card 1

For this card I cut out 3 bikinis using the included die and the patterned papers. I also used my distress oxide inks for the background

card 2

A clean and simple card using the negative space of the bikini die! Add some glitter on it and you have a gorgeous sparkly card

card 3

The shaker card for the day! Simple design but the colorful papers make it so pretty!

card 4

Sometimes a paper is so gorgeous that it makes a card on it’s own

card 5

for this card I stamped the bikini around a circle with the sentiment. Everything was stamped on watercolor paper so I could use my Zig watercolor pens.

card 6

Another super simple and quick card. This was done so that I wouldn’t waist that gorgeous paper I had as scrap from a previous card. Remember I try to use up as much of the products included as possible!

card 7

And a sea scene! So many shades of blue in one card, this card makes me happy!

card 8

Another take on the bikini die. I matched it with that adorable bikini patterned paper.

card 9

A bikini rainbow! What more can I say?! HA!

card 10

A little square card, with a window and a fun message inside! I got a new bikini for my daughter so this is perfect to go with that gift!

  4. Love them all, but Card 7 is my favorite. I’m always amazed at your creativity. I look forward to your videos. Thank you for sharing.

  5. love all your cards but I think card 8 is my favorite. thank you for taking the time to share your beautiful work and for the chance to win the card kit.

  6. I have been watching your channel for a few months, you are very talented and inspire me to create more. I have never used a SSS kit before and would LOVE to win this one and give it a try as you have REALLY drawn me in. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world. Many thanks, Dawne, Maine-USA

  7. Outstanding! I think my favorite was the one using Vellum but it is hard to choose as they were all fabulous!!!

  8. Thank you for your wonderful video, as always, Vicky., and also for the chance to win the giveaway. Card 4 is stunning even though it was one of the simplest. I’ll choose card 1 as my favourite because I love the distress oxides.

  9. Cards 7 and 9 are my favorites. Ginger always makes me laugh!!!! Thanks for including her in your videos!! Hope it’s getting cooler in Greece.

  10. I love your style and I’m always inspired by your work. I took your art journaling class on Crafty and use so many of your techniques. As far as which of these latest cards is my favorite.. so hard to choose but I do love number one. Thanks for all you do.

  11. Being a card and a cat lover, your blog is right up my alley! ? 10 cards from one kit is always fantastic, Vicky. Thank you for sharing your beach time and talent.

  12. I thought the rainbow bikini sun was unusual and a unique way to use the stamps – perfect for a sunny day at the beach. The acetate over glitter (eliminating the mess) was a great way to share glitter, shine, sparkle and fun with others even if they hate the mess. There are some people that don’t think inky fingers, glitter in the rug, and splatter covered table are pretty! LOL

  13. Hello Vicky, i love all the cards, you make, so i can’t just pick one, i am a big fan of shaker cards, glitter and distress oxides, so you imagine witch i would like, but it was awesome, the way you make those waves with just one die, distress and a bit of embossing powder, they lock alive . Thank you for sharing , see you.

  14. I’m finding it hard to pick a favourite card. They are all lovely. Your videos are so inspiring. Thank you!

  15. This is such a fun card kit for Summer! Love ALL the cards. But the wave card is my favorite!

  16. My granddaughter McKayla(she is 6 yrs old) and I LOVE watching your videos together. We really like card #8, the white bikini with the bikini patterned paper. Thank you for the video! Have fun at beach!

  17. Every one of your cards says “S u m m e r”! I love them all and it was obvious you had fun making them!
    Thanks for sharing!

  18. Like always, all your cards are lovely! However, if I have to pick one I will choose the last one: the one you made for your daughter! It’s very girly and I have a daughter too, she loves hot pink!

  19. I swore I didn’t want this kit – and then I see you’re 10 cards video and I wish I had it LOL. You’re talent is so inspiring! Love that background with the 3 bikinis in card 1. By the way, I adore how you say bikini. 🙂

  20. Your cards are just so charming and your videos are inspiring! Thanks so much for all you share!

  21. I feel like I say this to you every month, but I do so love your cards! They are fairly simple to complete, yet have such depth and detail. Love the shimmer! This beach set is adorable!

  22. I just love your 10 cards 1 kit videos, I loved card 2 the white with the blue glitter bikini, but really I loved them all!!

  23. Coming from living at the beach we see lots of bikinis….I love the glitter ones & the multi coloured ones…my 5yr old Grandson Hunter loves the waves one ?

  24. Another great job Vicky, I really enjoy watching you create, and
    I always learn something new. Thank you.

  25. I couldn’t figure out how I would use this card lot until I watched this video. So many super cute ideas!! Thanks!

  26. Fun cards, as well as great ideas/techniques that can transfer to other patterned paper and stamps. I think my fav card is the one with sparkling waves.

  27. They are all so pretty – but I think I love the simplicity of #4 – that paper is sooooo beautiful.

  28. I always learn a new technique when I watch your videos! Loved the waves with the foam! Thanks!!

  31. Just love the cute little bikini die. Cards are so cute. Great job. Just love watching you make cards! Thanks so much.

  32. Oh Vicky I was SO happy to learn how you contained the glitter behind that window!. Most of the cards I make go to hospitalized children and learning how to contain glitter was so very helpful! Thank you!

  33. Vicky, I love all of your videos and learn so much. Thank you. I didn’t understand where you got the “white pick up” pencil and I didn’t see it in your supplies list. Will you please tell me where I can get one?
