Stamps Happen

Since its Wednesday it must be Simon Says Stamps Challenge and this week its a nice and easy one of Anything Goes. The Design Team are showcasing the fabulous Stamp Happen stamps that Simon Says Stamps stock.
I used the Cuttlebug Divine Swirls for my cards main background even though the folder doesn't match up perfectly I knew where the join would be so hid it with the ek Sucess Scroll and Dot (I used it yesterday for the waves) punched border that I made. It's really easy to make the border, I cut 1 1/2inches strip the important part it to remember the started place. Punch one side and then turn the strip over and then begining at the same place you started with punch. 1 1/2 inches should leave enough for a bit of ribbon and in the case of this card I also drew round the border onto red card so I could get the red showing through the punch out bits.
The flowers are Prima and I really must stop buying from Simon Says Stamps extensive collection of Prima goodies cos I spend far too much time stroking them.  Of course that left the little darling from Stamps Happen isn't she adorable.

 We like to welcome Becca to the Simon Says Stamps team and Nadine is our wonderful Guest Designer and don't forget the wonderful prize but you have to be in it to win.

Really sweet card, just love the image Debby.

Kathleen said...

Quite a bit of a tongue twister your opening lines, a bit similar to she sells sea shells.

Great card though, not too sure about the image bit of a chubby arm and a bit young for bingo wings. Great colours and embellies.
