I decided to take a break from making Halloween cards and make these cute cards that I saw on a video using a Simon Says stamp - Happy Face. Of course, I didn't have the stamp set but decided to improvise using what I had in my stash.
I punched out several different sizes of circles to find two that fit the size card. I then punched out a hole on the base card using the larger size. Since I didn't have the stamp set, I punched my smaller circle on Gina K's masking magic paper and positioned it on different locations on my cards blending with different ink colors.
For my happy face, I punched out a piece of Daffodil Delight CS and drew a face on it and glue it down. Needless to say, I went through a few circles before I was happy with how they looked!
For my inside sentiment, I used the Happy Sunshine Mini stamp set from Gina K. I then blended some of the same ink colors around the circle. I loved how they turned out! It was a good way for me to practice my blending as well. Have a great weekend!
Thanks for stopping by,
