Simon Says … Make it Masculine 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 Anything Goes 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.

For this week’s MASCULINE themed challenge I thought I’d get ahead and create a Father’s Day card. My dad has a love of all the old Ealing comedies so I wanted to create a card using the Sizzix Vault Atomic Retro set featuring a scene from one of his favourites – The Maggie. If you’ve never seen it, I highly recommend you watch it – it’s a classic.

I die cut all the TV elements from the set and found an image from the movie and printed it out. I added it to a background I created on Watercolour cardstock using Distress inks and Spritz.

For the sentiment I used the Simon Says Stamp CZ Design Happy dies and found the Happy Father’s Day sentiment in an old Avery Elle stamp set.

Simon Says … Anything Goes Featuring Simon Says Stamp

Image

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

This week the challenge is

We are showcasing Simon Says Stamp 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’m sneaking a couple of new Simon Says Stamp products with my card this week – shhhh, don’t tell!

The background is created using a brand new stencil and I’ve also snuck in a sentiment from a new stamp set too!

My colour palette is from Concord & 9th – Capri & Bluebell – I’m in love with the latest colours from them.

I die cut the Tattered Daisy die from Simon Says Stamp and stencilled the background panel before adding my sentiment and flowers on to an A2 white card base.
