Shelter From The Storm

A super quick post, I have been trying for three days to complete this card. I have bronchitis...don't smoke and never have....aaarrrgggg...it is awful! I wanted to share the sweet new collection from Simon Says Stamp called Hop To It.....adorable new stamps, dies, and stencils. It is super CAS, but I adore the umbrella die and the sweet sentiment; it is from the Simon Says Stamp Sunnier Days. Add a little glimmer to your life.....sparkle & shine!

Simon Says Stamp-Texture

Be sure to check out the Simon Says Stamp Store!

Hello friends and welcome to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.....hump day just became a little more exciting....teehehehe.

This weeks challenge is to use texture and the design team is using Simon Says Stamp exclusive products.....check out all the products here!

Don't forget every week at Simon Says Stamp we give away a $50 voucher...woohoo...definitely worth playing for!

Let me start by saying, the using texture is one of my favorite techniques; I could seriously use texture all the time. I really get into the process of texture and more than that, I cannot take my eyes off the card once it is complete. I have used lots of different forms of texture, some are very subtle; but for me that is what I like best! On my card today I have used texture in lots of ways, embossed background, torn edges on white piece, curled down corner with a tiny piece of patterned paper to draw your attention(LUV THIS), Wendy Vecchi embossing paste, rolled edge of flower, 3d foam dots, gemstones, and glossy accents. Boy, wasn't that fun, I know I luv finding new ways to achieve texture, I cannot wait to see what you create this week! Add a little glimmer to your life.....sparkle & shine!

Just A Quick Note

I luv when challenges fall together sooooo perfectly, I was inspired by the Curtail Call donut holes, the colors, and the sprinkles. The CAS(E) this sketch was perfect for cutting out the hole, I used multi colors and Tim Holtz white stain spritz and a few silver beads for sprinkles, soooo cute! The colors today from SCS where a wide range, I used three of them; mint, coral, and kraft. Have you heard of Cards For A Cause? We donate unused cards to organizations so that they can give them to others, to encourage and give thanks. It is very rewarding and heartwarming. You can find out more about it and join us for the fun here! Add a little glimmer to your life....sparkle & shine!

I wanted to play along with several challenges, the list is below. I have used a fun little stamp set from Heidi Swapp...eeecckkk...I luv it! It does not have a name on it, just the #98155.

I am also playing along with SCS Cards For A Cause OPTIONAL Challenge this month to use yellow.

I also played around with my Sprectrum Noir watercolor markers, have you seen them yet? I used the yellow one from the Primary set to color the yellow background..I luv'em. I colored a little on the watercolor paper and then went back with a watercolor brush and smoothed it out...so fun and easy! Add a little glimmer to your life....sparkle & shine!
