Well I got the Simple part sorted but not convince that its that Clean but I brought the Tin Roof Cover specially for the challenge, OK I didn't check what the challenge was but I love this die so much I couldn't not use it.

I just used the Simon says Stamp Happy Birthday but just used the Birthday. The wishes stamped sentiment is from Simon says Stamp Thoughtful Messages. 

Like I said a very Simple and quick card to make but don't worry a fussy one was made afterwards it will be blogger soon.

I knew I wanted this Calm and Loving stamp set from CASual-fridays, I think I was more interested in using the heart blossom stamp to make my own background. There are some smaller heart stamp to fill up any spaces I've missed.

I used Oxides to make my background but I did this before I went on my hols and I'm not sure which pink I used and there are a few. I've checked by making a sample and can confirm its Worn Lipstick and Candied Apple.

I then stamped my tree and using Simon Says Stamp Stitched Rectangle cut it out and then used the Scallop Border die again by Simon Says Stamp. I used the rectangle dies for the background I made and the two together to make a rectangle.

To finish I used the Simon Says Stamp Best Hugs stamp set for my large hugs and the it will be ok was with the Calm and Loving stamp set.

Ho Ho Ho

So this week we are going Clean and Simple but I think I've tried to be too clever and it didn't turn out like it did inside my head.

I used CAS-ual Fridays Snowflake Greeting on a piece of card that had already be cut with the Simon Says Stamp stitched Rectangle. I stamped in Versamark and then used WOW white embossing powder.

Then I went a bit mad with Tim Holtz Dusty Concord with the idea of adding some pattern paper but I think it would have been too much so I kept it simple by using another Stitched Rectangle and added some flicks with a paintbrush and some Lucy Things Sequins.

Added the Avery Elle Sweet Scallops and the bit of silver thread I found in my stash. Still not sure if I like it. If I did it again the purple Snowflakes I would use the second impress so it wasn't so dark. Maybe even just stamp and emboss in Silver with a touch of the purple colour. Oh well hindsight is a wonderful thing.

So now it's YOUR turn.  Happy Crafting

Flower Power

Time for new challenge on Simon Says Stamp Challenge 

 and this week its

Flower Power

The team is also using Prima and CASual Fridays products but thats not a requirement for the challenge just the DT chance to show what amazing products Simon Says Stamps have in their store.

A very different card for me but I do love how it turned out. The papers are Pebbles Sunny side but it does seem to have disappeared from the shop but have notice some new ones like Walnut Grove and Seen and Noted will check them out when I've written this post.

I've also used Pure Innocence Cute-a-tude but she out of stock too again check out the huge selection of cuteness of Pure Innocence in the shop and they are so cute when you paper piece them.

The sentiment  is CASual Fridays Truth is the card this morning showed off the flower but I used the one of the sentiments along with the Truth is in my leaves. 

The border is Pearl Lace from Memory box and so is the Lavish Branch again from Memory box but I cut the join so it would hang down from the corner. The flowers are CC Designs Five point Flowers and their centres are various circle punches.

Now you know the drill to win the chance of this fabulous prize you have to enter the challenge with a new card no backlinking and you need to enter your post using the linky thing on the challenge blog. Also you need to link to the challenge in your post or you won't be eligible for the prize.

Wednesday Morning

I had planned to make something a bit imaginative but I was feeling under the weather so it didn't turn out how I hoped but I'm just pleased I made a card.
I had used the words on my Simon Says Stamps card which is schedule for 2pm but it didn't seem right not to use the flower and I so wanted to paper piece it.
Just a quick post back later.
