Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge
Thank you for joining us for the Something New Challenge and we hope you will join in with our new theme!
We will be back soon with the name of the lucky winner of the $50 Voucher
This week the challenge is

OMBRE

The definition of ombre is the French word for color that is shaded or graduated in tone.
We are showcasing HERO ARTS PRODUCTS this week. You don't have to use them to join in with 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 decided to use an Hero Art Ombre Inkpad Pool to Navy with the idea to make a background. In the end I decided to use it on the Simon Says Stamp Ornaments stamp and die set since they were solid stamps, I did think to use my Leavy Vines but I used that yesterday.

I knew I wanted the background to be white but I also knew it would be quite plain so I used the Simon Says Stamp Falling Snow Stencil but using it has an embossing folder and running it through my big shot.

I'm finding punches hard going so I used the MFT Grassy Fields die upside down to make my icicles.

The silver twine I found in the wool department at a craft shop and is actually made for crocheting.

To finish I used the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Winter Snow dies but used just winter and originally I planned to stamp wishes and emboss in white but it ended up crooked so a quick little fishtail banner for wishes and to hide my mistake. Oh the wishes are from the Simon Say Stamp Its Your Birthday stamp set.

So now it's YOUR turn.  Happy Crafting
