This is Yoonsun's last week with us in the Designer Spotlight and we would like to say a huge thank you for all of your fabulous creations over the past few weeks. It has been a great pleasure to have you along with us! :-)


I made this card for a special friend who used to help out on a sheep farm, Every year I find new sheep stamps to make her card  and this year I chose a super cute Ewe and Me Forever Clear stamp Set and Paper Patterns Paper Pack from My Favorite Things 

 
I kept the design fairly simple, made a little shaker and white heat embossed the sentiment 

I used an older sketch (376) from the My Favorite Things Challenge Blog. 



and I finished the inside


and to make the card look a little bit extra special I made a matching envelope using a We R Memory Keepers Envelope Punch 


So now it's YOUR turn, Happy Crafting

Simon Says: Flower Power














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

Flower Power
simply add a flower or 2 to your project!

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away a $50 gift voucher to one randomly selected winner to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store



Please pop by and see what our lovely guest Paula and the DT have made, blooming beautiful creations!

For the background I used Seedless Preserves and Picked Raspberry Distress Oxide Inks, smooshing them onto a craft mat, spritzing lightly with water and dipping the watercolor paper into the puddle. drying with a heat tool in between colours. 


I then splattered with various Ink Sprays  and added interest and texture using Stitches and Burlap Layering Stencils and White Embossing Paste. 

While the background was drying I stamped a Darkroom Door Fresh Buds Cling Stamp. using Jet Black Stazon Ink and coloured with yummy Zig Pens. 


For the layering panel I blended Broken China Oxide Ink onto watercolor paper, spritzed with water and when it was dry I used a 


I added a couple of strips of washi tape and wrapped around some twine. I used the 'hello' sentiment from a Tim Holtz Springtime Side Order 


artsy angle ;-)
