This is a scheduled post as I’m currently sunning myself in Australia and hopefully enjoying a long drink with a twist of ice and lemon! I guess that was what I was dreaming about when I designed this card – hehe! I used water colour paint to create the background then heat embossed the citrus sliced in white before painting them too!

Simon Says … Friends/Superheroes

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

We are showcasing MAMA ELEPHANT 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

Believe it or not this is the first time I’ve played with this gorgeous Mama Elephant set since buying it several weeks ago! I know – shocking! I just wish there were more hours in the day! At least I’ve managed to ink it up now! I used some woodgrain cardstock from Simon Says Stamp and added some stitched detail using one of the AHHH-MAZING new dies from the latest Avery Elle release! I coloured the little critters from the Three Amigo’s set and attempted to add texture using Nichol Magouirk‘s (and several others) dot technique – I love how it worked – particularly on the raccoon!

I used a little Avery Elle Linen ink under the critters to ground them and stamped the little greetings onto their flash cards (adorable)!

So now it’s YOUR turn, Happy Crafting

Simon Says … Make it Masculine

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

Make It Masculine

Father’s Day is on 21st June, so this challenge is dedicated to creating something for the men in our lives. You don’t have to make a Father’s Day creation, anything masculine will do !

We are showcasing CAS-UAL FRIDAYS and WAFFLE FLOWER 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

Eek – not the dreaded masculine card, lol! I know a lot of us card makers aren’t all that keen on making masculine cards as they tend to be less fussy, less “pretty” and don’t often give us as much freedom to get really creative as cards for fefmales do (but that could just be me, lol) . I recently picked up this woodgrain paper pad and love it for giving a good amount of detail and texture but still be able to keep it CAS and masculine-looking. I stamped the bow from the Waffle Flower Bowtiful stamp set in fog ink on three different wood papers and also covered the cream base card with a darker one for contract. The sentiment was stamped in Versamark ink and then I heat embossed it with a cream powder. The bows were die cut and mounted on foam adhesive to finish – simples!!

So now it’s YOUR turn. Happy Crafting
