Simon Says: 'Party Time' On The Monday Challenge










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

We are sad to announce that this is Cheiron's last week with us. Cheiron has been a member of the Simon family for several years, first on the Wednesday Challenge and then she moved over to the Monday Challenge. We would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas and the very best of luck for the future. We will miss you. x
This week the challenge is

Party Time

This challenge will run for 2 weeks so you have plenty of time to join in the party!
We would like to wish you all a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

Please pop over and wish our junior guest designer, Cate, a Very Merry Christmas, it has been a huge thrill having her along with us this month. Hope you have a fabulous Christmas Cate :-) XXX 
As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

There is a party in the local village hall in my neighbourhood on Christmas Eve, everyone is invited!! ;-)

I used a Tim Holtz Village Brownstone Bigz Die and Winter Village Die to make this addition to my Christmas village.



I used a MFT Equalizer Stencil to create the 'bricks' using  Fired Brick and Hickory Smoke Distress Inks. The party sign was made on a Silhouette Cameo. I popped a battery tea light inside to add to the warm glow, the disco lights will start later ;-)

Simon Says Stamp Birch Tree Window

I am very late joining in with the very last ABC Christmas Challenge of 2017. This challenge is open until New Years Eve so you have loads of time to join in. 

The theme is 
'Y' for Yikes or 'Z' for Zoom

yikes, you still have several cards to make so you mass produce a few or you're zooming around last minute Christmas shopping! 

I used a fab new Simon's Exclusive Birch Tree Window Die . I think this is my fave die of the year and I know it will get lots of use! ❤️

I actually made 10 of these ;-)


It might be simple but I think these are among my fave cards for this year. For the background I splattered kraft card with black and green inks and when they were dry I sprayed liberally with gold, lovely and shimmery IRL. 


I used a Memory Box Small Quiet Deer Die for Rudolph, using a Red Wink Of Stella Pen for his glowing nose ;-) 


Thanks for looking!

I wish you all a Very Merry Christmas and Best Wishes for a fabulous 2017!

Challenges:
CRAFT    Christmas
Creative Knockouts   Winter Wonderland/Festive Fun
Crimbo Crackers   Animals
Moving With the Times   Christmas Scene 




Hope you all have a great week :-)
Happy Crafting
