♥ Simon Says...Mother's Day/Special Girl ♥ {And a Small Giveaway!}

Wow! Almost another week gone! We're half way there peeps! ;) It's time for a new challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog! This time we want to see cards for your mom or a special girl/woman in your life! My mom is everything to me! The most un-selfish, loving and caring person I know! Her love is un-conditional! So for me, every day is Mother's Day. I can never "repay" to her the love she has shown us. I love you Mom! ♥    
For my card, I used the Simon Says Exclusive "Best Mom Ever" Clear Stamp Set. Such a pretty set that is perfect for Mom! I colored in the Rose with some Tim Holtz Distress Markers. I also used the Vintage Finds 6x6 Paper Pad by Teresa Collins.


I love the Circle Iridescents by Prima! So sparkly and gorgeous! The little Clear Sequins look like diamonds on the card. Too cute!


I also used a Heart Doily, some May Arts Twine, White Opal Liquid Pearls, Chunky White Glitter and some seam binding.


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!





Simon Says Stamp has a new Flickr Group! A place to share all of your creations that feature Simon Says Stamp Exclusives! Check it out HERE! Join in on the FUN!


And before I go, I have a small Giveaway for you! I just realized I have 2 of these stamps and I only need 1! ;)  The Tim Holtz Gift Sketch Wood Mounted Stamp.So just leave me a comment telling me you would like to win it! And I'll post a winner in a couple of days! :)


Have a sweet day/night!

Hi Melissa! I made a card tonight especially for the Simon Says Stamp challenge this week, which I will post tomorrow. I needed to make a card for a special girl anyway, so that worked out perfectly.

I would love to win the stamp set because I'm trying to get some things together for a crafty friend who has very little. So, if my name is randomly drawn, I will have you send it to her. She has very little, and I know it would be a blessing to her.

I hope all is well with you and your family, Melissa. If you get time, stop by and join our challenges at Word Art Wednesday. We've got some AMAZING sponsors again this year.

God bless you,
Karen
