My Favorite Things 'Tweet Friends'

As you may know, this week on the  Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge we are showcasing  My favorite Things Products. I had ordered this super cute 'Tweet Friends Clear Stamp Set and Coordinating Dies to use for the challenge and they arrived yesterday. a little late for the challenge  so I am here today instead ;-) 


I coloured with Copic Markers and used a Copic Multiliner to add some faux stitches. The lovely rainbow paper is from a MFT Party Patterns Paper Pack 

I wonder what song he's singing, for some reason 'Suddenly, life has new meaning to me' was going aorund in my head the whole time I was making this haha 


and I finished the inside, I couldn't decide on a sentiment so left it black ;-) 


and I used a scrap of the same paper to decorate the envelope




Thanks for looking! :-) 
Its raining and gale force winds here, hope its better weather wherever you are ;-)

Simon Says: Have A Heart




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


This week the challenge is 

Have a Heart 
Valentine's Day will soon be here so its time to start thinking about making some cards, gifts or little notes for your loved ones, spread the love!! ;-)

We are showcasing My favorite Things 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

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 the challenge blog to see what our lovely guest, Sue, and the DT have made :-)

I had ordered a super cute Tweet Friends Stamp Set to use today but I think they have caught a cruise ship rather than a jumbo jet as they are still somewhere mid Atlantic, so now it's time for Plan B ;-) 

I used a Cross Stitch Tag Die, a Lip Balm Window and Frame Die and a Lip Balm Shaker Pouch and made a 'Nordic' style cross stitch design shaker tag. 



Now I know I should have counted the stitches before I started but I'm not that well organised but I quite like how its turned out ;-) 

I didn't have a chapstick that would fit into the pouch so I just filled it with heart confetti instead, this would make a great tag to add to a gift for a crafty friend don't you think? 



So now it's YOUR turn to get out your 'love'ly supplies and join in! :-) 

Do you use Instagram ?  If so please add  #ssswchallenge to your challenge entry uploads so we can see them on there too.

Stampendous: House Mouse 'Iris Play'

Hi all, I made a card today just for fun using this gorgeous new Stampendous, House Mouse Iris Play Stamp.


I recently enrolled into the Kit and Clowder Online Colouring Classes, primarily to learn how to colour using my very neglected pencils but I also decided to join in with the Copic Classes too and I am thrilled with how my coloring skills are improving. I would never have been able to colour these irises so nicely before! 

I coloured with Copic Markers and added a few little highlights with a white gel pen. The butterflies were punched and I added the design using a copic multiliner, a little trick I learned in the classes ;-) 


and I finished the inside 


Thanks for looking!
