Simon Says: Add Some Texture

Hello crafty friends, it's Wednesday, and that means it's time for a new Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge! 

This week Simon Says: Add Some Texture, and we are featuring always amazing Tim Holtz products - it isn't a requirement to use them, but if you have them, we would love to see them! Come join the fun for the chance to win a $25.00 card to the Simon Says Stamp Store!    

I love making leafy cards, probably because green is my favourite colour! I used Tim Holtz Mowed Lawn Distress Ink and Watercolour Paper for my panel. I then embossed it for texture using a Spellbinders folder from my stash. 

I picked the Whirl Leaves die by Simon Says Stamp and die-cut it also from the Watercolour paper and glued it with foam tape for dimension.

The Simple Thanks die is by CZ Design for Simon Says Stamp and finished off using Green Clear Drops.

I can't believe it's the 17th STAMPtember® release! I am so excited to be joining this EPIC bog party! This STAMPtember® exclusive release is amazing!

I just love these new products! I had such fun with this one.

I used the new Streamers Stencil for the background on this one, using some of my favourite Pawsitively saturated inks. I then die-cut my Party Gifts and Bows dies.

I picked this gorgeous older Simon Says Stamp Birthday die to anchor my gifts. I glued it to the panel then added my gifts with a mix of glue and foam tape. Some blue Clear Drops and White gel pen detail to finish off!

Hello crafty friends, it's Wednesday, and that means it's time for a new Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge!

I am really happy with this one; its natural feel is pleasing to the eye. The Lattice die by Spellbinders was my starting inspiration. I paired it with green patterned paper from my stash. I love green with Kraft. I ink-blended my Lattice slightly using Gathered Twigs Distress Ink and glued it to the panel.

I die-cut my Hello dies from Spellbinders in both Kraft and Sugar Crystal glitter paper, and added them to my panel with gold twine and foam tape. Finished off with some green clear gems.
