Avery Elle … Time To Party

Oops, this should’ve gone up yesterday – forgot to schedule it!  I’m sharing a card made using Time To Party from the latest Avery Elle release.  This is such a useful set and I love that it can be customised for any birthday.  I’ve made a wee 4-bar sized sweet 16 card and just simply added some colour to the stamped image and set it against a stencilled background of gold, shimmery polka dots.

Simon Says … Anything Goes

It’s Anything Goes week at the @simonsaysstamp Wednesday blog wed-newchallenge-header

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge

Thank you for joining us for the last week’s challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

Anything Goes 

This week we are showcasing our very own Simon Says Stamp Exclusive Products this week. You don’t have to use them for the challenge but if you have them we would love to see them used.

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

I know we’re nearly at the end of February but I couldn’t resist sharing a Christmas card made with some of my all-time favourite products.  The Believe In The Season stamp set is probably my favourite Simon Says Stamp stamp set of all time – I absolutely love it.  Paired with the Gingham Background Cling Stamp and the Perfect Bow it creates a lovely, homey feel.  The deer was embossed with Gold Tinsel embossing powder – you don’t see the text detail of the stamp with this one but I don’t think that’s a problem!  The patterned paper I used is from My Mind’s Eye Sugar Plum paper pad which unfortunately is no longer available, but there are TONS of other papers that could be used for the same effect.

Merry and Bright 2


So now it’s YOUR turn, Happy Crafting

Avery Elle … Scalloped Pierced Rectangles

Hey there!  Today I’ve got a card featuring the new Scalloped Pierced Rectangle frame dies from Avery Elle.  These are great for adding the perfect frame to your cards and  include three different sizes and a great tag.  I also used another of the newest products from Avery Elle, Mimosas and white heat embossed them onto water colour card and coloured them with Zig Clean Colour markers.  I also heat embossed the big sentiment in the centre from the Big Greetings stamp set.  Be sure to check out the Avery Elle Blog every day for tons of inspiration on the new products.
