I used a gorgeous new Lined You Craft Die and made a birthday card for my brother :-)



This die is just perfect for practically every occasion!  Love YOU, Thinking of YOU, Thank YOU, A Gift for YOU the list is endless!! For the background I used a gorgeous Starry Swirl Die that was in the Stampendous release but its very similar to this Hocus Pocus Stencil from Tim Holtz. I coloured some Embossing Paste with blue ink and then smooshed it through the stencil.

 I printed the sentiment on my laser printer and foiled with Brilliant Blue Holographic Fancy Foil and  layered with Soft Navy Card Stock






So now it's YOUR turn!

Cocoa Hot Tub

Did you know that its National Cocoa Day today!! Well now its International Cocoa Day as there are crafters from all over the globe joining in and making cocoa themed cards!!! ;-)

I made a card using a gorgeous Stampendous Cocoa Hot Tub Cling Stamp 


I just love this little marshmallow man enjoying a hit cocoa!! Isn't he cute!! ❤️

I coloured with copic markers and added some glitter onto the snowflake and a few drops on the marshmallows too. I wanted to foil the sentiment to add more sparkle so I stamped and scanned before using my laser printer. I then applied the Sparkling Silver Foil using a Royal Sovereign Laminator, doesn't it look FAB!! For the background I used Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a Coffee Rings Stencil 


and as I had a strip of paper leftover I used it to decorate the envelope, better than throwing it away and it makes the envelope look that bit more special don't you think? 


Thanks for looking! Now it's time to make some cocoa and join in the fun!

Lawn Fawn Magic Picture Changer




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


This week the challenge is to make something with moving bits ;-)

Interactive Christmas 

We are showcasing Lawn Fawn 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  on the challenge blog post!

Please pop by the challenge blog to see what our lovely guest, Heather, and the DT have made :-)

I just love this Magic Picture Changer Die Set, if easy to use and the end results are just so much fun! The first time I was these was when I was visiting Simon HQ and the lovely Jenn Shurkus came to teach us how to use them and I was completely hooked!! 

Great fun for all occasions and all ages I think, just change the images and you're good to go! ;-) 


There are 'Before and After Stamp Sets designed specifically to coordinate with the die set but you can use other stamps too.

For todays card I combined Oh What Fun and Tobbogan Together Clear Stamp Sets. I love Santa bringing the gifts and then when you pull up the tab you can see Rudolph with his tree and gifts, cute or what!!! :-D 


I coloured with copic markers and used Lawn Fawn Papers which are now discontinued but which are very similar to this 'Snow Day' Paper Pack 


and I finished the inside 





So now it's YOUR turn!
