Today, we are focusing on the incredible new Smile Die & Smile Stamp Set. These two coordinate beautifully with one another! I especially love these types of sentiment sets with completely customizable and buildable sentiments! Having the matching die opens up so many amazing techniques & possibilities!! For my first card, I have a video tutorial sharing exactly how I made my card and how I fixed a few blunders along the way!
Here’s a closer look at the finished card!! I loved combining it with the fabulous Summer Fun Stamp Set for a truly Summer inspired card!
I also used the Smile Stamp Set to fill in the inside of this card, so it is completely ready to be pulled out of my stash and popped in the mail quickly!! I’ve found that having the inside of cards ready to go allows me to save time and I really end up sending/giving more of my cards out!
My second card is truly a CAS card, but I have been waiting for the perfect word die cut to put a card like this together! I used the Smile die to cut a rainbow assortment of card stock and layered them up for a truly rainbow Smile!
After adding a simple black frame that I made from two rectangle dies, I finished off my “Smile” sentiment with the stamp set on a flag banner die cut! It was really that easy!! I absolutely love being able to see all of the colors of the rainbow and the dimensional effect of layering up all the die cuts! I think adhereing them together in a wonky fashion also adds a bit more interest to an otherwise very minimal design!
