Simon Says: Anything Goes featuring Hero Arts with a tribute to Sidnie!

Hello crafty friends it's Wednesday and that means it's time for a new Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge!

This week Simon Says: Anything Goes and we are featuring always amazing Hero Arts products - it isn't a requirement to use them but if you have them we would love to see them!   Come join the fun for the chance to win a $25.00 gift card to the Simon Says Stamp Store!      

This week we are remembering our fellow teamie Sidnie Knight-Desjardins who lost her hard fought battle with Cancer earlier this month. Our hearts are broken for her husband and four beautiful daughters whom she loved so much. This is a sending hugs card to her family (who she loved fiercely) and if you followed Sidnie, you know she loved a blended background and that is what I decided on to honour her memory! May she rest and may we hold her memory close to our hearts.

All products used are Hero Arts, I started by stamping and embossing my cling stamp and ink blending the background. I then decided on this hugs die and die cut it using black glitter paper.

I then stamped a Simon Says Stamp "sending" stamp on the top of the hugs.

To finish off, some red candy hearts one for each of her beloved family members.

Simon Says: Tag It!

Hello crafty friends it's Wednesday and that means it's time for a new Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge!

This week Simon Says: Tag It and we are featuring always super fun Tim Holtz products - it isn't a requirement to use them but if you have them we would love to see them!   Come join the fun for the chance to win a $25.00 gift card to the Simon Says Stamp Store!      

These were fun to make, I love Mica Sprays and decided to start my holiday tag collection with the theme this week. I sprayed my tags with mica spray and set them aside to dry. 

I die cut my elements all by Tim Holtz and glued them to the tags once they were dry.

I felt I needed an anchor for the bottom so I cut some of my plaid 6x6 patterned paper and glued them to the bottoms of both tags. To finish off, some Pink Fresh Drops in red to act as berries.

Simon Says: Add A Sentiment

Hello crafty friends it's Wednesday and that means it's time for a new Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge!

This week Simon Says: Add A Sentiment and we are featuring always super fun Lawn Fawn products - it isn't a requirement to use them but if you have them we would love to see them!   Come join the fun for the chance to win a $25.00 gift card to the Simon Says Stamp Store!      

I haven't made a background using Distress Inks in such a long time! I forgot how much fun it is and using Lawn Fawn Critters :).  I started by stamping and collaring my images using COPIC markers and used the accompanying dies.

I then die cut my Hammock and Trees and set everything aside. I ink blended my panel and added some bronze coloured paint splats and some white paint to the "sand"

I put all of my elements together using a mix of glue and foam tape. To finish off, some white gel pen detail.

Simon Says: Back To School!

Hello crafty friends it's Wednesday and that means it's time for a new Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge!

This week Simon Says: Back To School and we are featuring Alex Syberia Designs products - it isn't a requirement to use them but if you have them we would love to see them!   Come join the fun for the chance to win a $25.00 gift card to the Simon Says Stamp Store!      

Back to school freaks me out this early, lol! We start the school year in Quebec around labor day so this week brought me back to quick reality with this theme, ha!  I love a CAS card! I absolutely wanted to use these beautiful leaf dies on my card so I paired them with a back to school stamp set by Simon Says Stamp.

I really wanted the leaves to be the star so I die cut them from my favourite fall leaf colours. I stamped my sentiments then added the leaves with a mix of glue and foam tape. To finish off, some Pink Fresh gems!
