Monstera Hello

Simon Says Stamp | Cheering for You Release
08/01/2024

Hi there!

I hope everyone is having a wonderful summer!  

It has been so busy here – and I love being outdoors – so my blog posts have been getting shorter and shorter lately.  Sorry about that!  

I have been finding time to create between raindrops – so I still have some fun stuff to share with you – including today’s soft green monstera leaf card!

I created this card using the Monstera stencil from Simon Says Stamp!  The stencil creates a single, large monstera leaf.  It has 4 layers, but for this card I just used 3.

I stenciled it using 3 shades of green, then die cut it using a stitched rectangle die and splattered it with white splatters before mounting it on a piece of green card stock using foam adhesive.

I tied some twine around it, then added it to my card base.  

I added a diecut sentiment and finished it off with a few gems!

Super sweet and very simple!

I hope you have a wonderfully creative day!

    That’s beautiful Jean. I love the soft greens. The gem and bow placements are perfect.

    This leaf is so pretty in the soft colors, Jean! Such a soothing way to say hello!

I fell in love with card-making many years ago and I’ve been hooked on it ever since. I love trying out new techniques and finding the perfect color combination for whatever I’m creating.

By nature, I am an uber-organizer and a steadfast planner, but as you’ll see, my creations are much more fluid. And while I love color theory, the concept of lights and shadows, and the importance of depth and perspective – these are not things I worry about when it comes to my creations.

I simply find joy in creating and delight in sharing.

I hope that by sharing my cards and other art with you here on my blog I can inspire you to create something you love!
