Simon Says Stamp Favorite Things Release

 
Good morning! Simon has a new release today called Favorite Things! The set I got to work with is titled "One for the Books". This is super fitting for me as I have always loved to read. I feel like it transports you to other places and times or lets you solve crimes. So here we go with some fun book cards. By the way I just love the font on the sub phrases.

This card used a bunch of the neutral ink colors from the Concord and 9th ink line to create my card base then I stamped and fussy cut out one book for my focal point.

This could have been a simple, one layer card but I did add the panel popped up with foam tape. The background stencil is from Tim Holtz, Sparkle Fade.

I added a bit of gold heat embossing to my card with Simon's Detail Embossing Powder.

And finally, here are a few more ideas I was playing with. Thanks for stopping by Sue.
