We had the pleasure of hosting Simon's very first Facebook Live! He's a huge up and coming crafting blogger who is multi-talented and only 14 years old! If you haven't heard of him yet, you will.

Simon Hurley is a cardmaker, designer, and self-proclaimed "dog enthusiast", and joined us today to share a few of his favorite ways to use Distress Inks.
Simon, already mastering techniques that range from inlaid die cutting to slider cards, masking to watercoloring... and even cards that light up, is brimming with crafting skills that aren't often seen in someone as young as he!
In the video, he shares what got him interested in the papercrafting world, some fun tidbits about himself, and a few creative ways to use the ever-popular Distress Inks! It's a lot of fun, so you'll want to check it out if you haven't seen it yet.
