STAMPtember with Simon Says Blog Hop




Hello everyone!

I am thrilled to be participating in the Simon Says STAMPtember blog hop! The new STAMPtember release is now available in the store at Simon Says Stamp! It is AMAZING! So many wonderful new products to kick off your holiday card and gift making!

I am featuring the adorable new Picture Book Chihuahua die! So cute!



If you follow my blog you know I have two new puppies now, so this die spoke to me! What you might not have known, if you haven't followed my blog for a while, is that I already had three dogs! Yes! I know have five dogs! Am I crazy?? Well, perhaps... my husband might think so. I do love dogs though, and one of the puppies is my daughters, so technically I only have four right? I'm trying to make myself feel better here. 
Anyway, about the card, I used some older SSS products along with this cute die. The little tag and words are from a set called Tag Sayings, and the neat swirly stitching and stars at the top is from Be Joyful, but I can't find them in the store, so I'm assuming they are retired now. So sorry about that! 
For the tag, I blended some distress ink along the bottom edge and then pieced the little chihuahua die together on to the tag. 



You can find all of the fabulous new STAMPtember release HERE!


Leave a comment here on my blog and on all the blogs along the hop! Simon Says Stamp is  giving away a $50 coupon to every stop on the hop this is double what they usually do for blog hops because STAMPtember® is special!  They’ll choose  winners over the weekend and post on the Simon Says Stamp store blog on Tuesday. 

There will also be a blog hop tomorrow, Saturday, so be sure and check out the Simon Says Stamp blog to find out the details!
