LIM.............Snippets!!

 Less Is More is the Recipe week and we'd like you to use Snippets.

I've been clearing out many unused bits and pieces etc. so not sure what to use for this challenge. I did find a couple of these pre-cut out Hedgehogs which I had lost, so I made a couple more for the challenge  - then the previous ones turn up - like life does!!!

These are the Lawn Fawn Hedgehugs Clear Stamps and dies and I used the Simon Says Tri Square Die using Bazzill Butter Mint cardstock.  The sentiment is from the Lawn Fawn set and I coloured a heart and used the Simon Says Holiday Shape Die. coloured with Copics and adds the Ranger Glossy Accenets which almost looks like a chocolate does't it??

Now I'm off to search for MoJo which has gone missing again!!!

Simon Says..................Anything Goes !!

Hi again everyone, our challenge is week is.........

ANYTHING GOES

We are showcasing PENNY BLACK 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

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

For my first card I chose the cute Penny Black's Strawberry Jam image. I knew exactly how I would design the card and the papers needed..........it didn't happen but this is the result.

I coloured the image with Copic Markers and used the papers with a combination of Studio Calco Sundrifter and Prima Marketing Princess

My second card is for Christmas, I have been putting this together for a while and growing this slowly and steadily.

My second card is for Christmas, having broken my arm at Christmas last year I was unable to sent cards - I couldn't even get cards into either envelopes or boxes......now I starting to have them all read!!!

This is the Penny Black About Town Die - I like this card (better IRL) and will used the usa the basic design for many Christmas cards.

Simon Says July Kit !!

This is a card I used with the Autumn Card Kit. All the materials are part of the kit apart of the Simon Says Audrey Blue and a little Copic Markers to colour the inside of the Flip Flops.
I just love the stamp sentiment 'Love is better with 'Flip Flops' - I wasn't better with out my Flip Flops today we had a torrential rainfall - just as I popped to the shop. I only wanted a loaf of bread, I was soaked to the skin, my hair, jacket, trousers and even my shoes are left drying out.
Now I have to make which stamps of elements next, I'm tempted by using the Martha Stewart's confetti mix - hmm!!

I've just received my Magnolia set and couldn't wait to colour them.

Then I needed what to use for my House Mouse & Friends challenge - I kept looking at Tilda and wondered what she was doing just sitting there.  Eureka - She's sitting there for the little baby Hoppers to play Leap Frog.

The images are all coloured with Copic Markers and Distress Inks with the background........ the images together are pretty large so I have leave a CAS design with sentiment only - the top one is computer generated, the lower one from the set.
