Simon Says ,,,, SHAKE IT !! :-)

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

Thank you for joining us for the Anything Goes Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

Before moving on to the challenge we would like to thank everyone who joined in with the Design Team Call. We had almost 600 applicants ! We will be visiting you all in the next few days. THANK YOU :-)

This week the challenge is ,,,,,,,,

 SHAKE IT

So a shaker/confetti packet type element on your creation. There are several ways to create a shake you can make your own or buy ready made products that you can alter.

We are showcasing Simon's Exclusive Products this week. You don't have to use them to join in 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

I used a  Cloud Drift Die  and Rainbow Color Stamp and Die Set and Simon's Exclusive Cardstock

While I had the supplies out I went ahead and made 4 variations :-)

First up is the shaker card, I love shakers,, so much fun !

I always add some Diamond Dust inside shakers, it is quite heavy and creates a lovely shaker sound :-)

I used some velum behind the clouds to soften the colour of the background card.

For this one I used an embossing folder to make the clouds dotty :-)

For this one I used the rainbow stamps and die, I think this would be nice for someone feeling 'Under the Weather' too :-)

Thanks for looking :-) I appreciate your comments so please leave me one ;-)

Say Cheese :-)

Hi all :-) I hope you all had a good weekend :-)

It's time for a new theme over on the House Mouse and Friends Challenge and this time I am the hostess :-)

The theme for the next fortnight is 

ANYTHING GOES !!

but don't forget that you have to use a House Mouse, Happy Hopper or Gruffie image.

I really enjoy making shaker cards, so that's what I did :-)

This 'Say Cheese' image has been well used, having so many photographer friends and family, this is a fave. I am hoping that Stampendous will release this in a cling !

I was inspired by THIS card made by our old teamie, Sue aka Scoopystuff, who has gone awol and is now living in sunny Cyprus with no time for cardmaking ,,, too busy sunning herself she is :-)

The papers are from a MME Chalk Studio pack, perfect !! I even finished the inside :-)

Thanks for looking :-)

We are sponsored by the lovely Marianne Design so a fabulous prize is on offer !!
