Love the colour palette on this one. I started by ink blending using a Watercolour Rectangle Stencil. Once that was done I stamped my Gina K. images on the ink blended area. I then stamped my sentiment from the same stamp set.

I added some coloured pencil detail to the leaves and flower for more dimension. To finish off some matching drops!

Simon Says: Make It Girly!

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

I decided to use colours that I rarely use for my card today. I like to try and stretch my mind set, lol! I stamped the floral image and coloured it in with my COPICS. I then added my Honey Bee Follow that Star stencil in the same colours, I wanted a little more on the background.  I then die cut my panel using one of my favourite Simon Says Stamp dies.

I stamped and embossed my Honey Bee sentiment from the You've Got a Friend stamp and die set on matching card stock. I added it using foam tape to my panel. To finish off, some Pink Fresh Studio Lavender gems!

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

Spring Flowers! This time of year is so long! Spring in Montreal is winter one day, spring the next then summer for a few hours and possibly back to snow! Waiting patiently for the calmer weather! This card was fun to make. I used the new Simon Says Stamp Wiggle Flowers 3D embossing folder and then decided to pair it with the Simon Says Stamp Etched Primrose Blooms flower. 

I die cut a tag from the Doodlebud Plaid-Polka Dot 6x6 paper pack in the teal and the flower centre from the polka dot.

I added the tag and the flower and leaves to the panel using a mix of glue and foam tape. I used a fun sentiment by Pink Fresh Studio and to finish off, some enamel hearts by Doodlebug! Check out the challenge blog for links to products used!

Simon Says: Sweet Treats!

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

This week Simon Says: Sweet Treats and we are featuring always super fun Lawn Fawn roducts - 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! 

This was a fun spring card to put together! I started by colouring the images I picked for this easter card from a few Lawn Fawn sets and used the accompanying die cuts. I decided on the soft pink card stock from the 6x6 watercolour paper pack for my background panel.

I decided to add some inking to the panel using my Lawn Fawn splatter background in a matching pink ink.

I white embossed my Happy sentiment on black Lawn Fawn Licorice card stock and then placed all of my images on the panel and glued them with a mix of glue and foam tape. I then stamped my easter sentiment. To finish off, some white gel pen detail and my favorite iridescent gems!

These two products were a natural pairing, I love confetti. I ink blended my panel using my Simon Says Stamp Confetti stencil with rainbow colours and set it aside to work on my sentiment.

I die cut the sentiment from black card stock and black fun foam and glued it together. I also die cut the sentiment from gold specialty card stock.

I glued my sentiment to the panel and then glued the gold confetti from the second die that I cut. I also added some clay confetti in rainbow colours and finished with white gel pen detail on the black sentiment!
