Simon Says: Fun In The Sun!





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


This week the challenge is 

Fun In The Sun 

We are showcasing some adorable  Mama Elephant Products this week. You don't have to use them to join in but if you have some we would sure 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 at the bottom of this 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!


Please pop by to see what the lovely Lee Ann and the DT have made and please leave comments XX ;-)

I made a shaker card using a used Up And Away Stamp and Coordinating Die Set and Pizazz Pieces Creative Cuts Die Set 



I coloured the little critters and balloons with Copic Markers and shaped them using an embossing tool to round them off a little bit, makes them look 'real' I then heat embossed the sentiment onto the front panel ;-) 

For the background I used a Visible Image 'Strobes' Stencil to create a sunshine effect with Squeezed Lemonade and Spiced Marmalade Distress Oxide Inks. I then added Simon's Exclusive Sunshine Sequin Mix , don't they look pretty! 

It is ages since I added eyelets to anything but thought these little blue stars were lovely! I think they should make a come back!


I used a Mama Elephant Incoming Mail Set to decorate the envelope 



So now it's YOUR turn to take out your sunny supplies and join in the fun!
