Simon Says Stamp 'Falling For You' Release

It's here !! Simon's latest 'Falling For You' release is now available !! :-) 

The lovely Heidi sent me a few products from the new release, and after seeing the whole kit and caboodle I now feel a shopping spree coming on ;-)

I love the Falling Hearts Die and Stencil and now we have a Cling Stamp to complete the set !!


I think this stamp coordinates so nicely with the Wishing Sentiments Stamps and Die set from a previous release and I love how this has turned out. 

Pink and Silver was the colour scheme for our wedding and I still love these colours together :-)



Thanks for looking ! I will be back tomorrow for the release blog hop. It is going to be MEGA, so my tip would be to go to the loo and then grab a coffee before you start the hop ;-) 
Kick off is at 8am EST, 1pm UK time, 2pm CET, so set the alarm on your phone, you definitely don't want to miss it !! ;-)

Such a cute little fox don't you think ? :-) I stamped and masked him before stamping the foliage, then coloured with Prismacolor Pencils, I thought I would try to give him a  fluffy furry textured look. Not sure I managed but I had fun trying ;-)I finished him off with a blob of Glossy Accents on his nose. 
 I used a die cut cloud shape and a Copic Air Brush to create a cloudy sky and finished with a die cut sun, smothered with a coating of Clear Wink Of Stella.


I have just returned from a fabulous trip to Vietnam and Cambodia, we had a brilliant time and saw some amazing things, ate some yummy food and drank quite a few beers and cocktails ;-) If you were thinking of going their for your summer vacation I would definitely recommend it.
*tip* take good walking shoes that don't leave you with blisters ;-)
