House Mouse Sunflower Walk

Hi all :-) It's time for a new theme over on the  House Mouse and Friends Monday Challenge,

This time the lovely Shelly is hosting and the theme is 

Anything Goes 

+ the option of Birds

Apologies for not using the option, but I just got this new House Mouse Sunflower Walk  Clong Stamp Set and just had to ink it up!

 I colored with Copic Markers, added a few dabs of my fave Star Dust Stickles here and there and finished with a strip of Doodlebug Broomsticks Washi Tape. Simples!

Thanks for looking! You have until Sunday 21st June to join in! :-)

Simon Says Stamp Always There Release

Hi all :-) I have just returned home after a fabulous river cruise along the Seine, from Paris to Normandy and back.  We visited several towns along the way and I was so lucky to get to visit Claude Monet's house and gardens, which were his inspiration for his water lilies paintings. Absolutely stunning and well worth a visit if you're in the vicinity ;-) 

Anyhoos, because I was on vacation I was unable to join in with the latest Simon Says Stamp Always There Release Blog Hop, but I did make a few cards using some of the new release.  

For this first card I used a gorgeous Dewpierce Butterfly Die Set and a Blooming Beauties Embossing Folder and Cutting Die Set 

I used a Storm Grey Ink to add some text onto the background paper and then used the Embossing Folder to add the texture before splattering with various colors of ink.  I colored the Butterflies with Copic Markers and adhered with 3D foam.  I added some Cottontail Embellishment Mix Sequins and Iridescent String for a little sparkle and finished with a EZ Strips Happy Birthday sentiment

For this next one I used a Gorgeous Hydrangea Embossing Folder and Cutting Die Set

I stamped some text onto Watercolor Paper and distressed the edges. I colored the Hydrangea with Distress Inks and White Paint and added Star Dust Stickles for sparkle.  I finished with EZ Strips Reverse Thanks sentiments, Cottontail Embellishment Mix Sequins and Natural String. 

For this last one I used a Simon Says Stamp Clear Acetate Card Base  along with an Elongated Hexagon Die Set and a Sunblush Flowers Die Set. I love how this one has turned out! 

I also used the  Blooming Beauties Embossing Folder  to add a little texture to the background, keeping the pressure in the machine very light so it only has a slight texture

Thanks for looking!! Please leave me a comment so I know you popped by ;-)
