Simon Says: Stamp It In STAMPtember®

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

This week the challenge is

Stamp It

i.e. use a stamp, no digi images allowed

STAMPtember® is a very special month on the Simon Says Stamp calendar and this week we are showcasing some of the latest STAMPtember® products. You may not yet have any of the new products but we would appreciate you using Simon's Exclusive Products if you have them, although it isn't necessary to join in with the challenge.

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

We are welcoming the lovely Wanda Cullen aka Art By Wanda into the Designer Spotlight this month! If you haven't visited Wanda's fabulous blog before then now is the time to do so! Please pop by to say 'Hi'

I used a new Ornate Background Cling Stamp and a Picture Book Panda Die

For the background I blended Peeled Paint and Twisted Citron Distress Oxide Inks onto black cardstock and then stamped the design using Black Archival Ink before splattering with Sparkle Shimmer and White Inks

I thought the Birch Column Die would work great with the little panda peeking through the branches , cute don't ya think ;-)

and I finished the inside using a stamp from a new Amazing Messages Stamp Set

So now it's YOUR turn to get those supplies out and start stamping

I used a new Wild Rose Studio Christmas Bunny Stamp, isn't she adorable!

I coloured with Copic Markers and added a generous sprinkling of Prisma Glitter on her trims. I paper pieced the little gift with paper from a from a Festive Florals Pack. I used the same papers for the backing and for the inside.
