Simon Says: Stencil It!


Hi all!Welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!

This week the theme is

STENCIL IT 

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away a $50 gift voucher to one randomly selected winner to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

Please pop by to see what our super talented guest Alison and the DT have made! Awesome Sauce! 

I started with some Broken China Distress Oxide Ink and then used Tim Holtz Cargo, Floral and Dot Fade Layering Stencils along with Distress Inks and White Embossing Paste to create the background


I  featured the new Simon's Exclusive 'Stitching Butterflies' Die Set as the focus of the card. I have to say these are my most fave butterflies EVER! ;-)


 

aren't they pretty 🦋

I finished the inside but didn't add a sentiment as I am not sure what I will use this for ;-)

Simon's Stitching Butterflies + Mother's Day Sale

Hi all, how are you? I hope all is well and hope you're all looking forward to a fabulous weekend :-)

I am here to share a card made using a new and gorgeous 'Stitching Butterflies' Die Set from Simon Says Stamp.



I used a lovely Butterflies Stencil and Squeezed Lemonade Oxide Ink for the background and die cut the butterflies using Citron Glitter Card, so lovely and super sparkly ;-) I then added a layer of vellum  to add a little bit more 'flutter'


Thanks for looking! 
Do you have any plans for the weekend? I plan on crafting as much as possible ;-)
