♥ Simon Says...Add some Texture! ♥

Hello there!! It's time for a brand new challenge over at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog! This weeks challenge...Touchy Feely! Add some texture to your cards!

This week the Simon Says DT are showcasing products by My Favorite Things! I am using the Chevron Stripes Dies on my card. Unfortunately, they are currently out of stock but there are lots of other chevron type products by MFT in stock in the Simon Says Stamp Store.

I die cut the chevrons out using a piece of white fleece, cream color felt and paper from the Ruby Paper Pad by My Mind's Eye.

I also used a few different flowers by Prima, some Hero Arts Pearls and May Arts Natural Twine.

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!

Hello! Hope you are enjoying your day so far. It's time for a brand new challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog. This week's challenge...Make Your Own Background.

This week the Simon Says DT are showcasing products by My Favorite Things. I used the Graduated Dots Stencil along with some Texture Paste. While the paste was still wet I added some Prima White and Light Pink Art Sugar Glitter to the dots.

The stamped sentiment is from the New Beginnings Clear Stamp Set also by MFT.
