Concord & 9th Accordion Base Card Die




Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge


This week the challenge is to add some

SPARKLE & SHINE 

We're showcasing some gorgeous Concord & 9th Products this week. You don't have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used.

You can join 5 times so you could have 5 chances to win! How AWESOME is that!! All winners are chosen randomly, so everyone has an equal chance to win! Woo Hoo!! Good Luck to everyone! 

I used a fabulous Concord & 9th Accordion Card Base Die set. I love how this makes making 3D cards so easy to do! I will definitely be using this set a lot!! You can also actually pop a small set of fairy lights inside!! I'm not sure I will give this one away! I might just keep it and pop it on my mantlepiece, maybe I'll mail it out next year ;-) 



 I also used a Simon Says Stamp Snuggle Snowman along with a beautiful Snowy Hillside Embossing Folder and Nested Stars Die Set . I popped in a couple of  Memory Box Reindeer. I used a Falling Snow Stencil, Texture Paste and lots of Prisma Glitter for the sparkle and finished with a Memory Box Merry Christmas Black Foil Tab 




So now it's YOUR turn!

Simon Says Stamp DieCember® Blog Hop: Day 2



Hi all and welcome to Day 2 of the Simon Says Stamp DieCember®  Blog Hop! You should have hopped here from the lovely Emma Williams Blog, if not you may wish to start at the beginning on the Simon Says Stamp Blog

The lovely Heidi and peeps at Simon HQ sent me a fabulous parcel of DieCember® Products and in it was this gorgeous Radiant Burst Die 


I also used a Nested Stars Die Set and made this CAS card, perfect for last minute mass production! I also thought this would make a fabulous garland, which I haven't had the time to make yet, but it is on my 'to do' list!  I added a few gems and snowflakes and finished with a Reverse Christmas Sentiment Strip 


Next up is a luminaire which is going to be the centerpiece of my christmas lunch table! 





For my 2nd card I used a super cute Snuggle Snowman along with a beautiful Snowy Hillside Embossing Folder

 

I simply colored with Copic Markers, added some Prisma Glitter onto the trees and finished with a Reverse Christmas Sentiment Strip 



There is a $25 voucher to give away at every stop along the hop, so be sure to leave a comment so that you can be added into the draw! 

Also be sure to go and hop along the Day1 Blog Hop to see more fabulous creations and to join in with the prize draws on those blogs too!
