Simon Says: Create a Scene

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



This week Simon Says: Create a Scene! The design team is featuring amazing Honey Bee Stamps products!  It isn't a requirement to use them but if you have them we would love to see them!

Come join in on the fun, you have the chance of winning a $50 gift card to the fantastic Simon Says Stamp store!


So, St-Patrick's Day is and always has been my favorite day of the year! I am Irish, Montréal holds major St-Patrick's Day celebrations annually and it is my sign that Spring is coming! All in all a great day for me :) So, I decided to use the super sweet Mae the Mouse set and the accompanying shamrock stamp in the same set.

I started by using my MFT Mini Cloud Stencil and some Shaded Lilac Ink on my background. I then die cut my MFT Rainbow in a series of colors from my scrap bin. Once the rainbow was glued onto my panel I die cut it with the largest Lawn Fawn Stitched Rectangle Die (A2 sized).


I then stamped Mae and a series of Shamrocks on a piece of Neena 80lbs cardstock and colored them in with my Copics (colors listed below). I used the accompanying dies and I decided to stamp a hat from the Honey Bee Flakey Friends set for Mae and added a shamrock onto the hat itself.

I die cut my Lawn Fawn Cilantro cardstock with a Lawn Fawn Grassy Border and added some Mowed Lawn Distress Ink and added it to the card panel. I placed all of my elements on the panel and decided to use the Honey Bee Enjoy die for my primary sentiment and die cut that from a Tonic Glitter, Fun Foam and Stick It sandwich. My secondary friend sentiment is from the More Flakey Friends stamp set and I embossed that with Ranger glitter embossing powder.


To finish off my card, I added some Pretty Pink Posh Shamrock Jewels and some Studio Katia Butterfly Chunky Glitter!

Happy St-Patrick's Day!

Happy St-Patrick's Day, my favorite day of the year! I am Irish on my Mom's side and St-Patrick's Day is the one day of the year that no one can ruin my mood, lol! 

Here is an Irish blessing for all of you:


May the sun shine, all day long,
everything go right, and nothing wrong.
May those you love bring love back to you,
and may all the wishes you wish come true!

My project today features all Lawn Fawn and My Favorite Things products and all of these products are available at Butterfly Reflections Ink.


I figured shamrocks and a rainbow would be appropriate for my project today. I started with my MFT Cloud Stencil (this is my favorite stencil) with a variety of Distress Oxide Inks on my background panel. I then die cut my Lawn Fawn Rainbow from multiple Lawn Fawn and MFT card stocks and glued it on the panel.


I colored my Shamrocks from the Lawn Fawn My Luck Charm stamp set with my Copic markers and used the accompanying dies.  The Cheers die is by MFT and I die cut that from matching green glitter card stock and the smaller sentiment is from Lawn Fawn's Happy, Happy, Happy Add-on set. I then die cut extra clouds using the MFT Stitched Cloud dies 


I put all of my elements on the panel and I felt there was missing a little something so I colored in the cute bird from the MFT Birthday Chick stamp set and the hat and bow tie are from the Lawn Fawn Snow Cool stamp set placed him on one of the clouds. To finish off I added some Pretty Pink Posh Shamrock Jewels

Wishing you all a great St-Paddy's Day :) thanks for taking the time and if any of these products are backordered simply select the notify me option, Vanessa re-stocks super fast!
