I stamped the pretty flowers onto Canson XL Watercolour paper using Ink On 3 Fadeout ink pad & watercoloured them using my Altenew Watercolour pan set

I wanted to create an encouragement card for a friend so I stamped a sentiment from Simon Says Stamps You Matter stamps set in black ink and then die cut the word "You" using the coordinating die in Fog Gray card stockfoam mounted it.

I add a few flicks of white gouache and paint & then foam mounted my whole panel and attached it to my card.

Shabby Chic Christmas - Simon Says Stamp DT

Good afternoon lovely peeps!

This week our challenge is -

My Favourite Tool!

The design team are featuring

Tim Holtz Sizzix logo

 products on our cards this week.

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


On today's card I am featuring my favourite paper crafting tools by Tim Holtz, the Guillotine Confort Paper Trimmer  Scissors. I have 3 sizes of the scissors, 9.5", 7" & the 5" mini snips and use these all the time for pretty much everything I need scissors for.

I literally had no idea where I was going with this card or even what products I was going to use as I'm sure like most crafters I have a huge supply of Tim Holtz products. 

I began by heat embossing Simon Says Stamps Merry Christmas sentiment stamp and some snowflakes from Christmas Cheer stamp set. I then blended Picked Raspberry, Victorian Velvet & Spun Sugar Distress Inks over my background & added some splashes of water, Distress Inks & gouache over it. 

I created a larger background on white card stock by stenciling some stars on it using texture paste & then I decided it was much too plain & just didn't look right so then added embellishments, lots of embellishments!
