Simon Says … Anything Goes featuring Hero Arts

Image

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the Interactive Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

We are showcasing Hero Arts Products this week. You don’t have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used.

I fell in love with the Hero Arts Floral Ramen stamp set so I immediately knew I would use this set for this challenge.

I started by creating a mat for the card using the A2 Scalloped Rectangles Dies from Simon Says Stamp in Ballet Slipper cardstock (Concord and 9th). I then cut two smaller mats using A2 Rectangle Dies from Simon Says Stamp in white and Concord and 9th Parsley cardstock.

I stamped my images using Memento ink and coloured them with Copics before die cutting and popping them onto the card front using foam squares.

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the Not a Card Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

We are showcasing Lawn Fawn Products this week. You don’t have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used.

I created a shaker card using some papers from the Lawn Fawn Really Rainbow 6×6 Paper Pad. I started by covering an A2 card base with a paper – I die cut it using the largest of the A2 Rectangle Dies from Simon Says Stamp. I then cut a smaller rectangle from a different paper and made a shaker pocket from a cellophane bag and my Fuse Tool filling it with some star sequins. I then took another of the papers and created a rosette using the Tim Holtz Vault Rosette Dies and finished off with a foiled sentiment using the EZ Strips Birthdays

Simon Says … Not a Card featuring Tim Holtz

Image

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the Add a Heart Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

We are showcasing Tim Holtz Products this week. You don’t have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used.

It’s always fun to create makes that aren’t cards. I love to make favours and gifts for different occasions so thought this was a great opportunity for a cute wee Valentine make.

I started by creating some matchboxes using the Tim Holtz Vault Matchbox Sizzix Dies using white card for the inner box and pink for the sleeve. I used the Layering stencil Shifter Diamonds to to create a sheet of patterned cardstock using Candy Apple Red Distress ink and Spun Sugar Distress ink. I splattered it with Picked Fence Distress Spray and once dry used the die from the matchbox die set to cut the panels for the top of the boxes.

For a little surprise inside I used the Faceted Heart die from Vault Rosette Dies from red card and coated them with a layer of Distress Resist Spray to add a bit of shine. To decorate the front of the boxes I used a few different things. One was an Ideaology Salvaged Heart which I covered in metallic leaf in red. I hot glued this to the front of one box. On the other two I used little wooden embellishments I have had in my stash for YEARS! I painted them red and added Glossy Accents for shine and dimension! You could achieve this same effect using stacked die cuts also.
