"Workout" stamp set from Simon Says Stamp

Hi there! Happy Friday!! Yay
Hope your week has gone well & you're finding time to craft. I am currently working on wedding invites for someone so I am crafting but not for myself lol, that's ok I hope be done them by the end of the weekend:)

Here to share a couple of cards I made using the Work Out stamp set from Simon Says Stamp from the Hop To It collection. I loved this set when they released it. It just reminded me of me. I enjoy working out and like yoga, I also have friends I work out with sometimes, so I was drawn to it. I usually try and justify the stamp sets I purchase, make sure I can use them to make cards for others. I couldn't figure how I would use this one but I just purchased it anyways because I love the images. The sentiments are so encouraging so it inspired me to make some encouragement cards & I like the way they turned out:)

I will also be playing along with the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge blog today - Its Anything Goes!!

This card I started with pink pirouette cardstock as my card base and used some scrap pattern papers  in my background. I stamped my image on some white cardstock and colored in with Copic markers, and fussy cut it out.
I adhered it on to the circle I cut out and stamped with a Hero Arts background. 

I also stamped this image on separate white cardstock, colored with Copic markers and fussy cut it out. I embossed some Fog cardstock with a chevron embossing folder in my Cuddlebug,as my background. I cut out a frame using my paper trimmer from some Mint cardstock. I adhered my sentiment behind my image and adhered them both on to my card base.
