Simon Says..........Flower Power!


Happy Wednesday - welcome to our challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog!



Our theme this week is Flower Power, and the team is playing with Altenew products.  

My first card uses a large flower die called Peony Dream.


supplies: white, black, Green Apple, Green Leaf, and 3 yellow cardstocks, Peony Dream dies, Simon's Script Thanks dies, Sunny Studio Frilly Frame die, peacock feathers oxide ink and a blender brush, yellow enamel dot

HERE are some other cards I've made using these beautiful dies.

For my 2nd card, I went from this big flower to lots of teensy ones, using the Ditsy Print stamps.


supplies: white, black, and orchid pink cardstock, Ditsy Print stamps, Altenew Rose Petal and Green Valley mini ink cubes, Fine Frames dies, Simon's Painted Hello die, stamped sentiment from (retired) Avery Elle Simply Said Hello

I stamped the floral spray across my card panel multiple times, then chose 2 of the Fine Frames to add over it, along with my sentiment in black.

I've made several cards now with this Ditsy Print set, and they are very relaxing to work with.  

As you may know, the Simon Says Stamp store is accepting new orders, but will have longer shipping times, due to the Covid-19 pandemic.  With this in mind, we have made the difficult decision to suspend our prize gift cards for now.  But we will continue our challenges each week, and we'd love for you to play along with us.  We're all in this together!

Simon Says..........Frame It!

Happy Wednesday!  Welcome to another challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog!

Our theme is a fun one this week: Frame It!  And the team are playing with Memory Box goodies.

I found an interesting die and made 2 very similar cards with it, using items from my scrap basket.  


supplies: white and peach card stock, Memory Box Small Circle Burst die, Simon's Center Cut Flowers cling, Wishing die and Sending & Wishing sentiment, adhesive foam squares

After assembling the panel with the Circle Burst, I popped it above my peach backing.  

My 2nd card is flatter, just some layering:



supplies: white, aqua, and black card stock, Memory Box Small Circle Burst die, Altenew Painted Flowers, Simon's Sending die and sentiment from Sending & Wishing stamp set

There's a large version of this die, also, but I chose this version, thinking it would make a good sun in the corner of a card.......yet it's still large enough to have a small sentiment inside it.  

Now it's your turn!  We have a $50.00 gift certificate
