They have whizzed by and we have all had such a great time working with Heidi, Stephanie and everyone behind the scenes at Simon HQ!! Several of the Designers have been on the team from the very beginning, Jo, Debby and soon thereafter Lin and Mandy. As you can see this is a great gig to be a part of!  The whole team is fabulously talented and dedicated to Simon and we would like to thank them all for their help in making this one of THE BEST challenges in blogland!!

Of course we wouldn't be here without YOU, we really appreciate you joining us in the challenges! THANK YOU ALL :-)

This week we are welcoming the lovely and super talented Marlena aka Marlena is Faithfully Crafting into the Designer Spotlight. If you haven't visited her blog you are in for a real treat! Please pop by to say 'Hi'

I used Stitching Butterflies and Circle Loops Dies and a Sketchy Lines Background Cling Stamp to make a set of birthday cards 

For the backgrounds I white heat embossed the Sketchy Lines and then used a selection of distress oxide inks over the top.

For this one I used Tumbled Glass Distres Ink Spray for the butterfly and matching Oxide Ink 

 For this one I used a Heidi Swapp Blush Rose Ink that is no longer available but it is very similar to Altenew Pink Metallic Shimmer Spray  and Worn Lipstick Distress Oxide Ink 

For this I used Dylusions Fresh Lime Ink for the butterfly and Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide ink 

for this one I used Dylusions Pure Sunshine Ink Spray for the butterfly and Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide Ink 

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