♥ Simon Says...Bit O' Green ♥

Happy Hump Day! Today starts a new challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog! This week we want to see a... BIT O"GREEN!  

The Simon Says DT are showcasing products by Taylored Expressions! I am using the super sweet Little Bits Shamrocks Die Set and some Green Wool Felt on my card. I paired them up with the Lucky 13 Card Stamp and Make A Wish Stamp by Tim Holtz. (The lucky 13 stamp says the word "RED" by the number 13, I omitted it by not inking it up.)    

I finished off the card with some Fresh Mint Sequins, pearls, May Arts Natural Twine, lace trim and some seam binding ribbon. The kraft cardstock is Desert Storm by Neenah.

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!

Do you use Instagram ?  If so, please add #ssswchallenge to your challenge entry uploads so we can see them on there too. 

Hope you all have a "lucky" day!

Hi friends!! Before I get started on today's Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge I just wanted to ask if any of you have ever had Poison Ivy? I have had it now for a few days and I am ready to try anything to get rid of it! It is the worst!! It is so itchy, I feel like I want to rip my skin off! :( Anyone have any natural home remedies? I already tried swimming in the ocean (supposedly the sea water is supposed to help!), Calamine lotion, Witch Hazel, White Vinegar and Baking Soda, taking Vitamin C, swimming in my pool, hot showers, cold showers, you name it, I think I tried it! So if anyone knows of anything, please let me know. I would really appreciate it! :)

So on to today's Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge! This week we want to see Monochromatic cards!

This week the Simon Says DT are showcasing products by Paper Smooches! I chose this cute clear stamp set called Whirligigs. I stamped the images in a couple different shades of green inks on white cardstock. I used a scallop circle punch on one of them and cut the other two out with scissors.

The base paper on the card is by Magnolia Ink and is called Sage Kitchen Cloth. Such a fun paper! I also used a beautiful die by Cottage Cutz called Bella Leafy Branch. I ran the die through my Grand Calibur Machine twice, first using a light green cardstock and then a darker green cardstock. I "filled in" some of the light green leaves with some of the darker green cardstock. The "Smile" stamp is from Ali Edwards Favorite Memories Clear Stamp Set.

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!

Have a wonderful day!!

Welcome to another fun challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog! With St. Patty's Day right around the corner...we want to see "A Bit O' Green" on your creation! It doesn't have to be St. Patty's Day related, unless, you want it to be! :)

This week the Simon Says DT are showcasing products by Wplus9. They have some really cute stamps and dies! I chose to use the Hearts and Clouds Designer Dies. And I thought, why not make a 4 Leaf Clover using one of the heart dies.

All of the Patterned papers, Kraft Cardstock, Green Cardstock,  Washi Tape, Kraft Bag, Stamps, Mini Paper Clip and Paper Straw are all from the SSS March Card Kit, Friendship Flowers. Which, I just saw is Sold Out! But everything in the kit, (and on my card) can be purchased separately at the Simon Says Stamp Store!

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!

I hope you have a super Lucky Day!!

This week's challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog is sure to get you green with envy!! Just make any type creation with green on it! It can be a St. Patty's Day card or whatever you like!

This week the SS DT are featuring products by Hero Arts! I chose to make a cute little shamrock out of some stamped little hearts from Hero Arts Buttons clear stamp set. I just stamped 4 hearts, cut them out, glued them together at the bottoms and then added some chunky glitter and a piece of twine for the stem.

I also used a sentiment from another Hero Arts Clear Stamp Set called Essential Messages as well as some Hero Arts Light Green Accent Pearls.

There are also some Spellbinders Dies on there as well, Scallop Circle Dies and Labels Twenty Dies. And lastly, to finish it off, I used some ribbon, trim and papers from the new Dear Lizzy line, Neopolitan by American Crafts.

As always, Heidi will generously give the random winner of this challenge a $50 Credit Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp Superstore! Good luck everyone!

Have a super fabulous day!
