Danville Wreath

Happy World Cardmaking day !!! What a fabulous day to celebrate and I have good reason to celebrate !! My latest crafty parcel arrived from Simon Says Stamp TODAY !! YAY !!  So I have lots of new stuff to play with,, well seeing as I couldn't come to the Ally Pally or the NEC this year I thought I should have a little treat to cheer myself up eh !!  :-)

I had ordered several of the latest Simon Says Stamp Exclusives  and couldn’t wait to try them out :-) First one out of the pack is this gorgeous Danville Wreath, soo pretty :-)

I used a very dark green card to die cut and then sprayed with Tawny Turquoise Moon Shadow Mist from Lindy’s Stamp Gang  ,, so gorgeous and shimmery IRL. I also used the same card for layering and to punch out some Martha Stewart 3 in 1 butterflies.  I cut a 2 nd wreath and trimmed out the 3 larger flowers and sprinkled with Glitter Ritz Stardust ,, which just happens to be the exact colour of the Hero Arts Wet Cement ink I used on the Impression Obsession Gradation stamp, also new today :-)
The sentiment was in the ‘Talking about You’ stamp and die set :-)


There is a special celebration over on the Simon Says Stamp Blog ,,, just spotted it now  !  So make a card and join in the fun !!Smile

Purchases from Simon Says Stamp proved to be very good, as you can see in your piece. It is very, very elegant and subdued. Congratulations :)

That wreath looks so delicate...does it come out of the die pretty well? sometimes if I have a die with thin little pieces they rip so I was just wondering. So pretty. I would be excited too and want to play with my new toys too.

Thanks for playing with us at Clearly iStamp with our CIC challenge #61. Hope to see you on Friday Oct 19th for our new challenge.
