Simon Says ..............

ANYTHING GOES !! 

The DT are using products from Penny Black this week, you don't have to but if you have them we would love to see them.

As always Heidi will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store!

I decided to use the Penny Black image from Raggen Romeo - I love this image and so brilliant for use of a variety of uses especially of valentine and many anniversaries.
I coloured them with Copics used  white core-dinations and Prima Nature Garden papers.
The are accessorised with Magnolia Leaf & Swirl and  Simon Stamps Bella Bloom, Memory Box Cherry Blossom and Fancy Blossoms.

I've used Nestabilities Classic Hearts  and Scalloped Hearts studded with pearls by  Hero Arts Light Blue  -  Hero Arts - pearl coloured

Ive used lace, Maya Road Scallop lace and a Royal Lace Doily. The sheer ribbon and metal butterfly are from my stash.


                          

Challenges
Make it Monday

Everybody Art Challenge

Here we are again with Everybody Art Challenge and here is my card.

Now I have to admit I didn't read the challenge properly - I just read monochrome and my brain missed out  the blue - ooooops!!!  Fortunately I chose a blueish mauve so I was accepted - phewww!!!  I spent ages colouring the image so I would have cried if I had to ditch it.

My image is from Mo's called Winter Fairy Talva and coloured here with Copics.

I have used Glossy accents on the icicles on her wings, her snowball in Glamour Dust, her hat and pom-poms in Flower Soft, her shoes in Fun Flock, the showflakes are Liquid Pearls and she is sat on Stardust Stickles. I think this is all a little exessive - I spent ages waiting for all these items to dry!!!

My snowflakes are cut with a Impression Obsession die which I have added flowers, the icicles by Marianne a I have finished by a small bow and a snowflake charm.

Now I am off to the Doctor, I hurt my back last week (I won't tell you - you will only laugh!!) I can stand up, I can lie down put I can't sit - commenting has become something of a nightmare - kneeling up at the computer is do much for my knees!!

Thanks for stopping bye
