♥ Simon Says... To Die For! ♥

This week's challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog is all about dies! We want to see any type of creation made with either a die or a punch! Easy Peasy!


This week the Simon Says DT got to play with dies by My Favorite Things! I chose this Die-Namics set called Polka Dot Greetings. It comes with the shaped die and this gorgeous versatile stamp set!


I first ran the die through my Cuttlebug with some light pink cardstock. I then stamped that beautiful polka dot frame onto some white cardstock and then cut it out with scissors and the center I cut out using a craft knife. I then adhered the stamped frame onto the die cut and then stamped the sentiment onto the center. The pearls on the corners are Liquid Pearls in Flamingo. The papers are Cosmo Cricket's Odds and Ends.


I then finished up the card with some seam binding ribbon and some punched Martha Stewart butterflies.


And as always, Heidi will generously give the random winner of this challenge a $50 Credit Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp Superstore!

♥ Vintage White ♥

That is the name of this week's challenge at The Shabby Tea Room...Vintage White. It is to create a card and/or project using all neutrals inspired by the gorgeous inspiration photo. Just use the colors white, cream, kraft, brown, black, etc.


And this week the DT got to play with some super sweet digi images by our sponsor Ellephantastic! I chose this adorable "Charlotte Halloween" digi image. I colored her in with some colored pencils for a change and added a little sparkle here and there. I also used some papers by My Mind's Eye, a piece of cardboard that I added some white paint and glitter to, some twine and some Liquid Pearls.


The winner of this week's challenge will win 4 Digi Images of their choice from the Ellephantastic Shop!


Here is the beautiful inspiration photo~

♥ Simon Says... Song/Film Title! ♥

                                                        
This week's challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Challenge Blog is a FUN one!! Create a card and/or project inspired by a Song or Film Title! I can't wait to see what you all come up with!!


I was inspired by Billy Joel's "Piano Man" as soon as I saw this gorgeous stamp set by Darcie's called "Life is a Song". I just love that Piano image!

I also used the music paper stamp on the pink cardstock in the background as well as the sentiment. The patterned paper I used is from the My Mind's Eye Rosy Paper Pad. I finished up the card with some Prima Trim, seam binding, Liquid Pearls , a Chipboard Music Note, mini rose and glitter.
