Please pop by to see what our fabulous guest Nikki and the DT have made! ;-)

made a card using a Aall & Create Hexagon Stem Clear Stamp designed by Tracy Evans.

As Remembrance Day is also known as Poppy Day I wanted to make that the feature for this weeks theme. I splattered the background with Dylusions London Blue and Fresh Lime inks and then heat embossed the image before coloring with Copic Markers.

and I finished the inside by simply stamping the image again. 

This card measures 41/4 X 71/2 inches and I made an envelope to match, I coloured the flower with Prismacolor Pencils 

Thanks for looking :-)

Aall & Create Deer

Hi all!Welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge!

This week the theme is

Thanks/Thanksgiving 



As it’s the first Monday of the month we are showcasing a brand/company. This week we are all using some fabulous products from AAll and Create. You don’t have to use them to join in with the challenge but if you have them we would 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 on the challenge blog post!

This week we are welcoming the lovely Nikki aka Addicted To Art into the Designer Spotlight. If you haven't visited her blog before then you are in for a real treat!

Please pop by to see what our super talented guest and team have made!!

I made a thank you card using a beautiful AAll &Create Deer Clear Stamp Set. Isn't she beautiful!

I coloured the deer with distress inks and fussy cut, I do wish there was a coordinating die though ;-) I shaped her using an embossing tool and popped her into a Trinket Frame along with a few of Tim's lovely new Metallic Droplets ;-)

For the background I used Simon's Exclusive Birch Column and Woodgrain Block Dies and a selection of Distress Oxide Inks.  I stamped the ink pads onto a craft mat, spritzed with water and then smooshed the watercolor paper into the puddle, drying with a heat tool between each color. 

and I finished the inside using a CZ Designs All The Thanks Stamp and Die Set

Thanks for looking :-)
