Simon Says: Christmas

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

Christmas

We are showcasing Penny Black Products this week! You don't have to use them to join in with the challenge but if you have some we would love to see them used!

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

This week we are welcoming the lovely and super talented Ann Greenspan into the Designer Spotlight. If you haven't visited Ann's blog before then you are in for a real treat! Please pop by to say 'Hi'!

I used an 'Endearing Design' Stencil and made a couple of CAS cards, perfect for posting! ;-)

For my first one I blended ink through the stencil using Evergreen Bough Distress Ink and then stamped some script text using a Golden Glitz Ink Pad. I mounted this onto Bazzill Gold Card Stock 

For the berries I used Ruby Red Liquid Pearls 

For my next card I randomly stamped the gold script before using Embossing Paste through the stencil

For both cards I heat embossed the sentiment in gold onto vellum

So now it's YOUR turn to get out your Christmas crafty supplies and join in!
