Todays card continues the monochromatic colour scheme I used on my card for Stephanie’s birthday blog hop yesterday.  I am now addicted to spritzing Mister Hueys Calico Shine on everything too – it’s so SHIMMERY!  I love it!  I also love these Prima Crystals – they are rough like little clusters of minerals – I think they go perfectly with the shimmer.  I also LOVE the new Birch Trees stamp set from Clearly Besotted – part of the latest release available from 10 pm tonight (UK time) in the Simon Says Stamp Store!

 

Thinking of you

So now it’s YOUR turn.  Happy Crafting

SSS Stephanie’s Birthday Blog Hop !!

Celebrate release Hop

Hello there – today is a very special day – we are celebrating the birthday of the absolutely gorgeous Stephanie Lekauf – Marketing Director of Simon Says Stamp with a fabulous blog hop! I had the absolute honour of meeting Stephanie and Heidi in London a couple of weeks ago and can honestly say that they are both the sweetest girls you could meet.  Whilst Stephanie was away powdering her nose, Heidi slipped the rest of us (yes – a lot of the Wednesday team were there too – along with two of my besties Stephanie Wincott and Debby Hughes) a fabulous CELEBRATION stamp and die set designed in honour of the birthday girl.

Celebrate blog hop

It doesn’t come across so well in the picture but I coated the card in a mist of shimmer before adding the balloons and crystals.  Although it looks kind of masculine – it’s very pretty and shimmery in real life – honest!!

So are you ready to carry on hopping?  You should have arrived here from the Simon Says Stamp Blog and your next stop is the lovely Jo Neville (pictured below) but if you get lost anywhere along the way just pop back to the Simon Says Stamp Blog and start from the beginning.

There will be one of Simon’s Fabulous Grab Bags to give away on every blog ! All you have to do is  leave a comment on each of the blog posts (including this one) as you hop along to be entered in the random draws.  You have until Sunday 9th November 12 midday EST to join in!

Once again the design team have been very lucky and we all received two sets of fabulous Spectrum Noir pencils.   I chose the ones pictured above – Primaries and Essentials.

I stamped the poinsettia image (Pretty Poinsettias by Clearly Besotted) and used the red shades from the Primaries set of pencils.  I used dies from the Simon Says Stamp Stitched Shapes and Stitched Slopes and Hills sets (HOW did I survive without these before??) for the background pattern and the little flag shape.  I love how the red pops againts the crispness of the white card and the black twine ties the sentiment and centre of the flower together.
