This week we’re welcoming back the lovely Ann Chuang into the Designer Spotlight. If you haven't visited her blog before then you are in for a real treat!

I made a shaker card using a fabulous Tonic Studios Slimline Shaker Creator Shaker Pocket. These are available in several different sizes and makes making shaker cards a doddle!

I am trying to get ahead with making Christmas cards this year, as last year, I was terrible ;-)

I used a super cute Katzelkraft Chien De Pere Noel Rubber Stamp and Spiral Borders and Clouds for the background. I used a Simon Says Stamp Falling Snow Stencil and Ranger Texture Paste and finished with a Sending Die Cut and Tim Holtz Christmas Label Sticker and a lot of Winter Flurries and Pretty Pink Posh 3mm Sparkling Sequins.

and I made an envelope to match.

Thanks for looking :-)

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

This week the challenge is

Anything Goes

We're showcasing Memory Box 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.

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!

I used a beautiful Memory Box Butterfly Swell Die

I blended Tumbled Glass and Mustard Seed Distress Oxide Inks onto Ranger Watercolor Cardstock and spritzed with water. When it was dry I used the Butterfly Swell Die and my Big Shot to cut the design. I machine stitched the edges and layered on top of Smoke Cardstock. I added a few Trinity Stamps Buttercup Vase Jewels and Solid Quartz Sequins and finished with a Simon Says Stamp Thanks Sentiment.

and I used the Butterfly Swell Die to make a mask and decorated the envelope
