Simon Says Stamp-Watercolor It!

Be sure to check out the Simon Says Stamp Store!

Hello Wednesday and hello to the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge.....Wednesdays are great, it is hump day and the Simon Says Stamp Challenge....teeehehehe.

This weeks challenge is Watercolor It and the Simon Says Stamp design team is using whatever they want this week. I wanted to show off the amazing Simon Says Stamp Clear Stamps Banner Sayings...sweet sentiment set!

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

I used Gelatos, these are amazing, I swiped the black and silver Gelato stick across the watercolor paper it was such a vibrant color. I took a sponge and wiped it smooth, I then spritzed with a little water for a even smoother look and finish...I adore how bold it came out. I wanted the colors to be the main focus, so i heat embossed the sentiment and added a few enamel dots....I really like how it turned out! Hope you have a super awesome hump day....sparkle & shine!

Coffee Lovers Bloghop-Simon Says Stamp and Verve Stamps

hi friends, I have a lot to share in this post; Mojo Monday, Simon Says Stamp, and the Coffee Lover's Bloghop. Chaitali had this great idea, did you know today is National Coffee Lovers Day? In my top card I have used Verve Stamps and the bottom card is using Simon Says Stamp set What's Brewing?. Just for fun Chaitali gave us a few questions to answer.....

1. When did you start drinking coffee? First thing in the mornings...lol..I take a coffee mug to work everyday. On my days off I have a cup every morning. I do not drink coffee all day long, but I like coffee when I am cold.....lol. I am extremely cold natured and want to drink it just because I am cold.

2. What is favorite brand (you can name up to three). Starbuck's and Gevalia

3. What is the most amazing coffee that you had? Remember where and when? I went on a ladies retreat a couple of years ago and we stayed at a Holiday Inn. I remember them having the BEST coffee I have evah had...it tasted sooooo good! The entire weekend is a fond memory! 

4. If I don't drink my needed coffee, I will... I can live without coffee, but why should I?...lol. I do not need it, I enjoy it and luv it when it is cold outside...it is all about the moment and the ambiance!
