House Mouse Mousse Mice

Hi all :-) I am here with a reminder to please join in with the House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge,

This time we are hosted by the lovely Bunny and the theme is 

Anything Goes

+ the option of
"Love and/or Valentine's"

I used this gorgeous new House Mouse Mousse Mice stamp from  Stampendous


I coloured with Copic Markers and added a little of the chocolate mousse to the little ones mouth, they are messy eaters arn't they!! ;-) 
The papers are some random older ones that I found in a box but love the colours and designs so I used them and the sentiment is from an older Ice Cream Dream stamp set from Simon Says Stamp  :-)

I realised that I had forgot to finish the inside after I had taken the pics, that is now rectified but I couln't be bothered to take more pics so you'll just have to take my word for it ;-)


Thanks for looking!

Simon Says Stamp February Card Kit

Hi all :-) How are you all? I hope everyone is OK and enjoying a fabulous weekend!! :-) 

I am here to share a card I made using the Simon Says Stamp February Card Kit. The kit has now sold out, not surprisingly, as its one gorgeous kit!! You can buy the products separately though ;-) 


I chose to use the hearts design in the Window Frames Stamp Set but I love that it has flowers and balloons too so great for any occasion! I coloured with Copic Markers and at that point I was planning on using the patterned papers so I fussy cut around the design, only to decide to stick with white "ugh" ;-)

I added stamped the 'love you' in each of the apertures and popped in the Buttons Galore Sweetheart Embelishments in each opening. I love that Simon's Window Trio Die fits the MFT Window Pouches so I will definitely be ordering more of those!

I finished the inside but left it without a sentiment as I will probably use this for an anniversary ;-)


and I decorated the Cotton Candy Envelope that was also in the kit. 



To be sure of receiving a kit before they have sold out you should think about subscribing if you haven't already, they're great value for money and its like a birthday gift to yourself every month!

Simon Says Stamp Bursting Hearts Stencil




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


This week the challenge is 

With Love 

We are showcasing our very own Simon Says Stamp 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

The lovely folks over at Simon Says Stamp are generously giving away a FABULOUS $50 voucher to shop at the  Simon Says Stamp Store! All you have to do is take out your crafty supplies, make something following this week’s prompt, and add a link in the Inlinkz  on the challenge blog post! 
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! The Design Team is looking forward to seeing your creative makes and will pop around to visit you ASAP!

This week we are welcoming the lovely Vanessa Menhorn aka Wings Of A Butterfly into the Designer Spotlight. If you haven't visited her blog before then you are in for a real treat!

Please pop by the challenge blog to see what our lovely guest, and the DT have made :-)

I used a new 9 x 12 inch Bursting Hearts Stencil from the latest Simon Says Stamp  'Hey Bestie' Release. 



I coloured some White Embossing Paste with Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Ink and sprinkled in some WOW Biodegradable Eco Glitter to make it sparkly. I then sprayed the back of the stencil with Repositionable Spray Adhesive layed it across the paper. This helps to prevent the paste oozing underneath the stencil and gives you a nice crisp edge.  I added a few crystals and star confetti and layered with  Doll Pink Card Stock. The sentiment is from a  CZ Designs Reverse Love Sentiment Strip,


and I finished the inside 


and made a matching envelope 



So now it's YOUR turn!

Do you use Instagram ?  If so please add  #ssswchallenge to your challenge entry uploads so we can see them on there too.
