Hi there, Layle with you today for another round of Pick a Card, Any Card!
Each month, 5 of our design team members and I will be picking one of our favorite Simple Stories or SN@P! 3x4 or 4x6 cards and sharing them with you - in more ways than one! We've introduced so many GREAT cards over the last few years that I thought it would be fun to share some of our favorite cards each month, tell you why they're our favorites and then give you a chance to win not only the specific cards that we picked, but the other cards they're paired up with as part of the set (more on that fun giveaway at the end of this post)!
If you missed last month's picks, you can see them here.
To kick off this month's version of Pick a Card, Any Card, here's one of my favorites -
This card is one of the 3x4 SN@P! cards from our new Cat SN@P! Set that we introduced as part of our Winter 2014 release. Without going into a reallllly long story that spans 3 cats over 20 plus years, we currently have 2 cats. And I'm NOT a cat person. Like I said, long story. If we ever meet in person and there's a lull in our conversation, ask me about cats... Anyway, I love this devil cat card. If you've ever had a cat, I'm sure you know what I mean - sometimes they can be little devils!
Next up is Andrea Corriveau with this 4x6 card from our Everyday SN@P! Set -
When I asked Andrea why she choose this particular card, she said -
I love this card because it totally relates to my life. I laugh when I think of all the times my kids have rolled their eyes at me when I say, “Hold on while I get some pictures"! I totally have a snappy life 😊
Alissa Fast chose this 3x3 Insta-Squares card, from our new Homepsun Insta-Squares -
When I asked Alissa why she chose this card, she said -
I am still loving the chalkboard trend and I am really in love with the new square sizes of cards! Perfect with all the Instagram photos out there! The outline fount is also a favorite of mine. LOVE this card!
Allison Davis selected not one, but TWO 3x4 cards from our new Dog SN@P! Set -
I picked the two cards with the wiener dog (or dachshund). The first card has the head of the dog and the second card has the tail end of the dog. We have two dachshund's, Oscar and Abbey, so I was especially drawn to those two cards. I love that the dog is split, head and tail, between the two cards! I can't wait to use those!
Next up is Cari Locken with this 4x6 card from our Everyday SN@P! Set -
When I asked Cari why she selected this card, she said
First of all I absolutely adore the chevron background and the fun font colours. That makes me happy. Second of all, this phrase is just a great reminder that everyday doesn't have to be incredibly awesome. I can always find something good in my day, no matter how small it may be - perhaps enjoying that morning cup of coffee or my kiddos making their beds in the morning!
Last up this month, but certainly NOT least, is Angella Peardon, with a twist on her card selection! Her current favorite is this 4x6 die cut card from our Say Cheese SN@P! Cuts -
Angella created this amazing house minibook, using this card as the cover!
Don't you just love that; what a great way to use one of our SN@P! Cut cards!
So, what do you think? How about those picks - pretty fun, right?!
OK, now to more good stuff. At the beginning of this post I mentioned something about a giveaway! Enter via the Rafflecopter widget below by end of day Thursday, February 6th telling me which of our 6 cards is your favorite and why. On Friday I'll draw one random lucky winner to win not only the cards we selected, but the rest of the cards that are included with each package the cards are from - that's 180 fabulous Simple Stories cards, people!

These are all great cards. I love the one with the Everyday quote as it's a great reminder and what's not to love about chevrons.

My favorite is the devil cat card! I've always had kitties and I love them. That card made me laugh out loud with the innocent smile on the kitty's face and the devil horns and pitchfork!

The cat cards for sure. suit my two kitties to a t ;)

My favorite is the "US" chalkboard square card! Simple, but says A LOT! I think it would be great to use on a Valentines Day card.

Love the snappy life card!

I like the everyday card as I'm trying to be more positive this year and it really speaks to that goal.

I adore your snap cards! My fav is from Say Cheese and its the camera. so fun to use on an "insta" page.

I am torn between the cat one and the chalkboard square. We just got a kitten, and I've discovered just how mischevious kittens are. But, I also LOVE the chalkboard trend and would love to add that to my scrapbooking supplies!

Love the Say Cheese Cards!!!!

I love "It's a snappy life" because i love the rainbow of colours and it captures the fact that everyday life is worth capturing. I also adore the dog cards, even though i have never had a dog! So cute that the dog covers 2 cards!

Love the everyday snaps, very creative.

I love the Say Cheese Snap Cuts they are so versatile and can be used with almost any project. Angella's house mini is fabulous!
