Hey there – today I have a great stamp set to share from Avery Elle called Amazing. It features a great set of sentiments for your friends and family in a gorgeous font. I’ve paired it with the cute pug image from the gorgeous Furry Friends set designed by Heather – love this little pup! I made this card for my daughter who happens to be totally in love with pugs!!! 
Thanks for popping along today.

This week’s challenge was the perfect excuse for me to get inky with some gorgeous distress inks and the FANTASTIC new Flamingo dies from My Favourite Things. I just love these flamingos – I have a real thing for them (and so does my daughter Olivia – she’s obsessed!). I love this Vine stencil from The Crafter’s Workshop, I’ve used it many times and thought it would make the perfect backdrop for my birds. I blended some Cracked Pistachio and Tumbled Glass distress inks onto my card front panel with a mini ink blending tool keeping it heavier at the bottom and fading towards the top and stamped the sentiment from the co-coordinating MFT stamp set, Tickled Pink in Versafine black Onyx ink. Once that was done I sprinkled a little Sea Foam mist from Heidi Swapp to give a little texture and shimmer. The flamingos were cut from a couple of shades of pink cardstock and I added a little shading to the wing with a Copic marker and finished with some Wink of Stella clear . For a wee bit more interest I added a panel of vellum between the card base (a Sea Glass notecard from the Carribean Collenction by Avery Elle – don’t know what I did before these!!) and my card is done!!
So now it’s YOUR turn. Happy Crafting

We are showcasing MEMORY BOX 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
As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store
I picked up the Raindrops stencil from Memory Box to use on my card this week – I love how versatile stencils are! I placed it over my white card panel and then used white embossing paste over a section of it. Before it dried I added some aqua coloured fine glitter for some bling! I stamped and die cut the bear and umbrella from the Simon Says Stamp Abby’s Flowers stamp set. and coloured them with Copics. I also die cut the puddle from the co-ordinating die collection from some Stick It and adhered it to the design and added some glitter to that too! I mounted my panel on to a Kraft card base from Avery Elle and finished with the Happy Spring sentiment!
