I used a Penny The Platypus Clear Stamp Set and Coordinating Die Set

I coloured Penny with Copic Markers and created a raibow cloud sky using Copics and an air brush. The white clouds were die cut using a MFT Stitched Cloud Edges Set and I used Lawn Fawn Grassy Hillside Borders Set for the garden. The sentiment is from a Gina K Perfect Blend Stamp Set

and I finished the inside using a Simon's Exclusive Coffee and Tea Stamp Set

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

This week the theme is

Whatever The Weather

As it is the first Monday of the month we are showcasing a particular company or designer. This week we are all using products designed by the fabulous Tim Holtz

I am thinking about all of those affected by the terrible tornadoes in Alabama/Georgia yesterday. So sad to hear of loss of life and homes, what a tragedy :-(

I made a tag filled with some lovely warm summery sunshine 🌞

I used largest size in a Framelits Tags Die Set, I am sure we all have some stamps and dies that we seem to use more than any other, well, this is one of those sets!

I started by clear heat embossing bits from a Botanical Cling Stamp and then used Squeezed Lemonade, Spiced Marmalade, Tumbled Glass, Stormy Sky and Mowded Lawn Distress Oxide Inks over the top. I then sprinkled with Slime and Lemoncello Infusions and spritzed with water. I then randomly stamped some script with Black Archival and added some sunshine using a Visible Image Strobes Stencil and yellow tinted embossing paste

I then die cut lots of leaves and flowers using a Funky Florals 1 Die Set, coloured with Squeezed Lemonade, Worn Lipstick, Mowed Lawn and Forest Moss Inks. I then added a a Mini Detailed Butterfly and a sentiment from a Small Talk Sticker Set.

Artsy Angle ;-)

Thanks for looking!
