Finally! Coordinating dies. Love it. ❤First butterfly is so beautiful. I would never have thought of laying pieces together

[@gwensimmons_gigi1629]

Lovely, SSSKit inspiring cards made Cathy! So glad to hear SSS has finally become flexible and listened to their clients’ requests. Thanks for posting this vid and inspiring us, paper crafters! 💜✨😉🥰

[@ThankfulNanaDiane]

“Add more pink…” Music to my ears! 😊❤️

[@victoriaparis2791]

Once again, you convinced me to keep my subscription! I just love your unboxing videos. You are just fabulous!

[@phoeberuff475]

Oh my gosh! I love, love, love these cards! You created cards that I think I can give a try with the techniques - even with the butterflies - which usually not very fond of, however between you and several other creators for SSS and Heidi’s explanation of the new subscription - I will be re-subscribing to the monthly card kit!! So excited and thank you!! 😊

[@ShannaCox-mc3ui]

All your designs are gorgeous! I can't wait to get my kit and start creating. Thank you so much for the inspiration.

[@getcraftay]

Loved what you cut the butterfly out of for card 1! That bold background on card 2 with the vellum butterfly was genius! My favorite was 4! Can't wait to play with this kit myself!

[@bucsr.6106]

Owie that bruise on your right hand. …and your cards *chef’s kiss*! 👩🏼‍🍳💋

[@czdesign]

It will go away one day. lol

[@kimdixon3773]

Love ,love , love! Can't wait to get my kit and start making cards. The wobble butterfly and the transparency cards are my faves. ❤️

[@sherylbishop8153]

Hey Cathy, what a cool idea with the butterflies, paper and dies…will be borrowing this very soon! Thanks for sharing.

[@LisaVornhagen]

I love all of your cards! The butterflies are so pretty! I think my favorite is the navy blue with the bird. It's really elegant looking.

[@user-xu2md9wd2t]

Love all of these cards! I cannot wait to get my kit and make cards. I learned so many new techniques! Thanks!!

[@honeysuckinaw3500]

Your cards look fabulous! I'm so inspired that I will definitely order the March card kit asap Cathy,thank you for sharing this ❤and inspiring me with your cards here that I fell 💜 ❤️ in love with tonight ❤️ 😊

This is an Awesome Kit! Can't wait for mine to be delivered! Your videos always get me excited and ready to craft!

[@marystitching]

Thanks Cathy, your cards are so precise. I love it. My favorite is #4. The colors are beautiful.

[@Winburggirl]

So lovely ❤the butterflies 🦋 are definitely my favourite!

[@melodymueller3149]

Outstanding Cathy. All the cards are beautiful. You're always thinking outside the box. I will use all your cards on my kit. My favorite was the simple one. "Hope you doing well." Hopping over to your tutorial to see how I can add stuff to my next kit. You're so informative. Thank you for the share.

[@czdesign]

Thanks so much!

[@lindaveal1204]

All five cards are beautiful and very creative ❤😊!

[@malinh911]

Always a joy to see you make lovely cards from these kits!

[@junesefscik5801]

Love your cards! Thanks for all the inspiration.

[@danniellekoehler6828]

This stamp set would be great for Tim’s watercolor pencils

[@kathleenmills7452]

I just subscribed in time for the valentines kit and I love this second one! Great inspiration!

[@jaditelady173mary4]

Beautiful cards! I really enjoyed ur video. Nice steady pace with explanations. Thank you for taking the time to film and share.

[@czdesign]

You are so welcome!

[@bettyburns1520]

I was not going to order this kit! However, after watching this video, I changed my mind ❤.

[@SunflowerDragonQueen]

Love all your cards girl so beautiful I’m gonna have to subscribe to SSS kit thank you for sharing crafty hugs

[@judibradshaw1948]

FABULOUSNESS!!! Love all your designs! ❤ Always so creative 😊

[@czdesign]

Thank you so much!

[@longlivedemocracy756]

Cathy, your cards turned out great! Especially love the vellum and wobbler cards! Thank you for so much inspiration. I’m on my way to purchase the kit. TY!

[@moreiss1]

Wow!!! I love that you stepped out of your comfort zone!!!! Gorgeous cards!!!!

[@czdesign]

Thanks so much!

[@cherylsmith7490]

Hello from Ohio!! Always look forward to new ideas and making me laugh at your humor which is so darn fun. You go Cathy!!

[@pattychalas]

it is just a lovely treat to see your videos! love it

[@czdesign]

Thank you so much!

[@kathygibson1633]

Every card seems possible & they are all stunning. You showcase the kit so well!!

[@amymanganaro4243]

Mind blown! I’m new to watching your videos and just in awe of your taste and creativity. I strive to find a fraction of this. I’m just gathering my tools to start card-making.

[@czdesign]

Wow, thank you!

[@alysonalcalay1594]

Cathy: always enjoy your ideas. On the 1st card, I would put the smallest gems on the butterfly's antenna. Crafter's Companion has great papers, on both sides!

[@czdesign]

Great idea!!

[@ellenvolkmar]

Love the cards and the kit. I got so many ideas watching you make them that I cannot wait to get the kit. Added a few things to my subscription which is a great update for the website.

[@czdesign]

Wonderful!

[@Gloria_Davis]

Hi Cathy I really love the butterfly card and the die!

[@deborahanne9793]

Cards 2 and 4 are my favorited, however, they are all wonderful! I will recreate them.

[@craftybee4644]

Still watching ... love the first card, so simple and elegant. It would look lovely with some gold sp(l)atter on the notecard!

[@czdesign]

Great idea!!

[@christeepascale4483]

Another great unboxing and fantastic inspiration cards! Each card is better than the last. Don't know how you do it but thank you! I admit that I am not a subscription or kit crafter. Not because they aren't well curated or a great value (IMHO they are both) but because I need to be more deliberate with my craft budget. I appreciate your explaining what makes the @SimonSaysStamp kit subscription different. The ability to opt out of kits AND add other needed craft supplies to my kit order for a single S&H? Game changer. Well done @SimonSaysStamp!

[@patriciawilson4135]

How nice are these cards. I love #4 and #2 is my second favorite. Great use of the kit. I may have to get some of those transparencies. Thanks very much.

[@czdesign]

Glad you like them!

[@tinasawyer9471]

Ordered! Can’t wait to copy your cards!!

[@craftedbykatz]

Wow! Thank you for the demo. I wouldn't have known what to do with a lot of the kit, so I appreciate your ideas because its not my normal style (possibly yet!). I have a background done already that looks a lot like your vellum card, so I'm definitely going to do something similar as yours is so pretty! I'm hustling to get my Valentine cards done today from the last kit, so hopefully they are dry before my hubby gets home!!!! 🤪

[@czdesign]

Glad it was helpful!

[@DJsSundries]

Butterflies are my jam so was looking forward to this kit. You made great butterfly cards. However, that collage card really drew me in. I hope you tagged Tim Holtz in that because it’s getting all the heart eyes. I never would have thought to emboss underneath and I really wouldn’t have wanted to use the fancy gold paper underneath. Now I want to use it for just that thing.

[@czdesign]

Oh thank you!

[@deborahanne9793]

Wonderful cards Cathy!

[@toniaspille0214]

That’s a gorgeous card!!!

[@judiththompson3120]

I have been awaitingthiS kit to arrive....

[@hazelyoung2046]

Fabulous cards Cathy xx

[@mummabearmarie1109]

FABULOUS CARDS CATHY. TY

[@susanbollinger2844]

Gorgeous cards Cathy

[@gardendreamer9117]

Oh boy!! Excited to see what you come up with… I subscribed last month so can’t wait to get my box in a couple weeks!😊

[@czdesign]

Hope you like it!

[@bonnerdebbie]

Wonderful cards and inspiration!

[@joniworx]

If you have warped water color paper, run it through your die cut machine, in the same sandwich you would if you were cutting something out of it. Takes a lot less time than using a book. Just an FYI and hope it’s helpful.

[@suesmith2353]

Can't wait for the live to begin. Almost lost my Benji, Shih Tzu 2 days ago, so I am ready for laughs, fun and Cathy's quick wit. Keep it coming Cathy. You are the best ❤

[@lindaball403]

Hope he is ok

[@czdesign]

Oh, I'm sorry for your loss.

[@CoffeeandScrappingLisa]

Fabulous cards, CZ!!!

[@2009EllenMary]

Great ideas!!! Thank you.

[@lelawessner3345]

I am downsizing to move in the spring/summer. My kids helping me move have strongly suggested I cut back on my crafting purchases until after I move. I am not sure how to do that? I love these kits too much❤

[@pageeadams]

Really beautiful!

[@melissazabower339]

The navy with the dipple dots is my favorite. Love the bird! Also love the wobbly butterfly -- that butterfly screamed for a wobbler. 🦋

[@rosemariesoper5654]

Watching the replay in Illinois. 😊 Can't wait to see what you got and what you'll make with it¡!! Difficult to pick a favorite...but I loved cards 1 and 4!! TFS

[@maryjarrett5899]

So pretty. I signed up for Sss subscription. Looking forward to crafting with you.

[@czdesign]

Enjoy!

[@jenniferdrake1210]

Good job Cathy. Jenny 😊

[@judycook7886]

Very pretty Cathy!

[@kellygulden9541]

Gorgeous card!!!

[@momoclangford4673]

Bought this set. I will be coping your cards! I mean, it's the best form of flattery right???? These cards are amazing! Thank you for sharing your talent. 😬🦋

[@czdesign]

Glad you like them!

[@lp450]

I love your cards! Fun video. I can't get "Don't folds, just hold" out of my head. LOL

[@CraftyKiwiMama]

Gorgeous card kit! LOVE the cards you made Cathy, they're all so gorgeous and the mixed media with the vellum ephemera bits looks so fabulous! xoxo

[@corinarazo1404]

"Very multi- media", that's you!!! Great cards there. Looking forward to receiving my kit! Thanks for the share. Look forward to your next card sesh 👉

[@shortiewright4159]

[@czdesign]

Thank you so much!

[@Teresa-Q]

Love them all. What a Gorgeous butterfly …great idea with the strips on the butterfly. An awesome kit 🩷🩷🩷

[@reneeallen1118]

Gorgeous

[@arleneharpster3195]

Love the placement of the gems on card one. It makes it seem as though the Butterfly is in motion!

[@renshaw5darlene1519]

Five beautiful cards Cathy. The wobbler is so fun ❤️

[@kellystoutenborough7152]

I luv your unboxing card videos with card ideas!!

[@raineysmith3303]

I appreciate the very good look at each item in the kits.

[@sammierobinson9226]

I love the lacy look of the Butterfly on the second card.

[@lindaball403]

I loved the paw pad in the gems

[@cynthiaborah2348]

Love the beautiful cards, Cathy! Thank you!❤

[@lindaball403]

Happy Valentines Day 💝

[@baboo7192]

I love the white embossing on vellum! That’s my fav!❤❤❤ Love all your cards! Great kit!❤

[@shelleymurphy1966]

I can’t wait to get the set! I ordered it the other day as a newby card maker.

[@czdesign]

Yay!

[@joannbedsaul6068]

Hello from Virginia. Beautiful card. Happy Valentines Day!!

[@lindaball403]

Its a beautiful card!

[@czdesign]

Thanks so much!

[@lindaandersen4308]

Thanks, Cathy!! Great cards, as usual! ❤

[@raineysmith3303]

You'd have more structure if you glued the wings between a top body and a bottom body layer.

[@michelejacobs115]

I love these cards, Cathy! I can't wait for my kit to get here!

[@SusanM-ji4du]

Very nice cards Cathy, especially the pieced paper one!

[@reba86442]

Great designs cathy

[@czdesign]

Thanks so much 😊

[@debbieskluzak913]

Loved all of these. The ones made with the transparency are so different. Great job.

[@czdesign]

Thanks so much! 😊

[@evemercier3460]

Beautiful cards, Cathy ! My favorite is the color swatch one!

[@ThankfulNanaDiane]

Fun cards! Thanks for entertaining me while I clean my kitchen! 😊❤️

[@czdesign]

Any time!

[@cindybeaver1361]

Wow you still have that bruise!!!

[@czdesign]

Yep. it'll go one day! ha!

[@francier5185]

Least favorite thing: cutting dies apart. Most favorite thing: getting inspiration from you. P. S. HOW is your hand STILL bruised? xoxo from Pittsburgh.

[@czdesign]

One day it will be back to normal. FINGERS crossed! hahaha

[@francier5185]

@czdesign if I was your nurse you'd have no bruise. Lolololol

[@lindaball403]

Ha, I remembered

[@cindybeaver1361]

Hi from Rosemount MN

[@czdesign]

Hello there!

[@shychckcrafter]

Love your video. You make such beautiful cards. How do u decide on making a card out of the stuff you work with. Tfs. Have a great day

[@czdesign]

I just play and see what happens~

[@ThankfulNanaDiane]

Howdy!

[@juliesnyder7785]

I would wish for all the paper to be single sided!!!!✂️

[@leoninefyre]

Can’t wait to watch. I’m just starting the video. But wanted to comment about the bruise. Ouch! Have you tried Boiron Arnicare? It helps with bruising for sure. They have a cream and gel.

[@czdesign]

I have not! I normally don't get blood taken from the back of my hand so hopefully next time they find the veins!

[@leoninefyre]

Oof! I feel this. One time I was with my dad at the doctor’s office for a blood draw, and it took 3 tries and 2 different people to finally find a vein.

[@cathylaycock5598]

Is there dies for the 2 other butterflies that can be ordered separately? 😊❤️🇨🇦. Love your first 3 cards the most! Great job!

[@czdesign]

There are! ldli.co/e/xl5kg1o

[@pamelamoniz608]

This is a nice group, Cathy! I really like the navy thank you card. Question: would you put a piece of white cardstock inside to write on?

[@czdesign]

Yep. Or i would use a metallic gold pen!

[@deborahanne9793]

Cathy, What number on heat setting did you use on your minc to foil the acetate sheets?

[@czdesign]

I set it to 3 on the Fuse machine.

[@deborahanne9793]

Thanks.
