♥ Simon Says...Anything Goes! ♥

Hi there Peeps! It's time for another "Anything Goes" challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog! Just make anything using paper and link it up for your chance to win an amazing prize!


This week the Simon Says DT are showcasing products by Impression Obsession! I chose to use 2 sweet wood stamps. The Daisy Dress Form Stamp and the Sewing Ruler Stamp. Just love that ruler!!


I stamped the dress form twice with Black StazOn and paper pieced the butterfly onto the dress form. I colored them in with Copics and added some chunky glitter to the butterfly as well as a Liquid Pearl.


The papers and Ephemera are from Kaiser Crafts. The Needle and Thread 6.5 x 6.5 Paper Pad and Collectables Die Cut Shapes. Such a sweet line!


And don't forget, the super sweet and generous Heidi will give the random winner of this challenge a $50 Credit Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp Superstore! Good luck everyone!

♥ Sewing Room Frame ♥

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend!The sun is shining today but it is a little chilly again! Come back Spring, please!! ;)

I am here again with another Crafty Secrets creation using some of the new and Oh, so cute! Sewing Papers and Ephemera! I made a shabby little frame that can be placed on a table top or hung on a wall. I am currently doing a makeover in my craft room, so this will look cute in there. (I will have some pics soon of my new space!) I used some of the adorable New Digi Sewing Papers by Crafty Secrets. You get 32 of the cutest sewing related papers in this set for only $7.95! They can be re-sized and used over and over again!


I also used lots of goodies including those adorable spools, 'heart button' and "Sewing Room" Label from the Digi Sewing Images and Ephemera Set. That set comes with 72 amazing images for only $11.95!


I also used 1 of the sweet Button Cards and the gorgeous Ruler with the Roses on it, is also from the Sewing Papers Set!


I will be back next week with a fun, yet beautiful display, storage idea for your ribbons, twines and scrap threads using some new Crafty Secrets products!

Have a wonderful week!

 hugs....

♥ Simon Says...Travel/Cityscapes! ♥

Hi everyone! Today is a brand new challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog! This time we want to see anything travel related or a cityscape! Get your thinking caps on!! I can't wait to see what you all come up with!


For my card, I used the new Well Traveled line by Carta Bella. I used the Well Traveled 6x6 Paper Pad, Chipboard and Layered Stickers. Love the colors in this line! There are a lot of pretty papers too that can be used for things other than a travel related creation!


To finish off my card, I also used a Prima Wooden Travel Icon (the plane) which I inked the edges brown and the smothered it in chunky white glitter and a Prima Crystal Heart. I also used some seam binding ribbon and twine. The button on the bow is chipboard from the line also.


And don't forget, the super sweet and generous Heidi will give the random winner of this challenge a $50 Credit Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp Superstore! Good luck everyone!





♥ Before I go, let me just say that my heart goes out to all of the helpless and innocent victims of that horrible bombing in Boston! My thoughts and prayers are with all of the victims and their families. Especially that poor little boy and the other 2 people who lost their lives, way too early! What is this world coming too? You can't send your kids to watch a marathon or even are afraid to send them to school! Very sad! I hope whoever did it is brought to justice severely!

 big hugs to you all....
