newchallenge

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge
Thank you for joining us for the Recycle Style Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.
This week the challenge is,

TAKE A LEAP INTO THE UNKNOWN

As today is Leap Day we are leaping into the unknown! You choose to use a new technique, or it can also mean a new way of life, getting engaged, married, having a baby, new job, the possibilities are endless!

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

My nephew will soon be getting married to his beautiful fiancee and this is the card I made for them.

 Our lovely teamie, Cheiron, made this gorgeous card a while ago and I CASE'd it :-) 
thanks Cheiron xx 


I created a background by inking white card with Tumbled Glass Distress Ink, I then used some White Embossing Paste, a Falling Hearts Stencil and a sprinkling of Prisma Glitter to add to the romance.
 I  inked a little piece of acetate with Alcohol Inks to make the stained glass windows in the Church. I colored the Crazy Birds with Distress Inks, don't they look a handsome pair!



So now it's YOUR turn, Happy Crafting

Stampendous Easter Hares


Its time for a new theme on the House Mouse and Friends Challenge and this time it is my turn to choose the theme 

HAPPY EASTER
you can always choose the Anything Goes option too if you prefer. 

I used a super cute Easter Hares stamp and made a card and coordinating Gift Bag


I masked the little one before stamping the image for the card.
I used a Medium Dots Stencil and a few Distress Ink Pads to create the polka dot background. 


I used Lawn Fawn Goodie Bag and Stitched Squares Dies to make an aperture in the front so that the little one could see all the yummy mini eggs ;-)

Hi all, I hope you're having a fab weekend and managing to find some crafty time ;-)

I made this card using a super cute Melody's Easter Stamp and Die Set. It is my friends birthday soon and I always make her a card with a sheep on it as she used to live on a sheep farm ;-)


The Less Is More Challenge this week is to use some wire so I rummaged through my drawers to find  my craft wire, that I have had for years, and used a little bit to make the flower stalk ;-) I also stamped some chicken wire in  the background.
