House Mouse 'Stockings Hung'

Hi all :-) Did you know that there are only 267 days left to Christmas !! It will be here in the blink of an eye so better get ready ! :-D 

This time on the ABC Christmas Challenge Lacey is our lovely host and she has chosen

'G' is for GLITTER

I used this very cute House Mouse 'Stockings Hung' Cling Stamp, aww, not a creature was stirring, not even a ,,,,,, ;-)


I stamped and then masked the image, then stamped a brick wall background using Simon's Fog Ink. For the glittery panel I embossed a piece of coordinating Fog Cardstock and then glittered the raised stripes.

I might have positioned the pearls differently, but the one under the 'M' is covering up and oopsie


I am just packing and getting ready for a holiday, so I will catch up with you all when I get back :-)

We are Sponsored this challenge by:


Prize is 3 Digital Images




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

Simon Says Happy Birthday !


wed-newchallenge-header

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

This week the challenge is

 HAPPY BIRTHDAY

please make a happy birthday celebration creation 

I can't believe we are already celebrating our 6th Birthday !! Jo and Debby have been with us from the very first challenge and many of the Designers have been with us a long time ! I have enjoyed every minute of it and have learned so much along the way. It has been a real pleasure to work with and meet so many talented designers. It has certainly helped me to improve my crafty skills and kept me on my toes ;-)
Simon Says Stamp really is a family and I love being a part of it, meeting Heidi, Jason and their children, Steph and all the people behind the scenes at Simon has been a great thrill and I can't wait till we meet again :-)

I used this very cute Abby's Spring Showers Stamp Set. The 'model' for this set is Heidi's daughter :-)


I really had fun making this. I masked her and created a delicate cloudy sky using a copic air brush but it does't show up so well in the photo :-/



and I finished the inside too, makes it extra special :-)


I am going away for a couple of weeks, visiting Vietnam and Cambodia, so I will catch up with you all when I get back :-)
