Anything Goes - Simon Says Stamp DT

Good afternoon lovely peeps!
I have had a busy few days & I have even done some Christmas shopping! I intend being one organised girlie this year & as I needed to take my sister up to Bristol on Monday we spent a lovely day shopping in Bristol before heading off for her evening appointment. The Christmas shopping is on track the cards however are another matter! I had a huge delivery of gorgeous goodies from the fabulous Simon Says Stamp yesterday plus lots of pretty Maja Designs papers, & I also bought more crafty products than I intended up in Bristol so I have loads of new stash to play with :)


It's Wednesday which means -
 at

ANYTHING GOES!

My fabulous teamies & I are featuring Spellbinders products on our cards this week. You don't have to use them for the challenge but if you have them we'd love to see them.
For this weeks DT card I have inked up a cute Gorjuss Girl called Rainy Daze & as usual have coloured her with my copics. I intended featuring some lovely Spellbinders Christmas dies for our Spellbinders week but I didn't even think about which products the DT are featuring this week until I was about to photograph my card & thankfully as luck would have it I had used Spellbinders pretty Floral Ovals & the Large Ovals nestabilities already so there was no need to quickly create another  CAS card featuring Spellbinders goodies :)

The copic colours I've used are -
skin - E11, E00. E000. R30, hair - C9, C7, C5, outfit - C3, C1, C00 / C7, C5, C3 / R21, R20, R00

Gift It! - Simon Says Stamp DT

Good afternoon lovely peeps!
The weather has definitely turned chillier in the South West in the last few days & I even gave in & switched the heating on for a while yesterday evening! Hubs will no doubt have the house like a sauna now as he really feels the cold since his stroke so that means I'll be spending the next few months dressed like I'm living in the Bahamas when I'm at home as I find it unbearable.

I am back with my lovely Simon Says Stamp teamies this week after needing to take a week off due to being ill, so lets get down to business!

It's Wednesday which means -
 at
& this week our challenge is
GIFT IT!
This challenge we would love to see you create a gift card or a gift for someone.

My fabulous teamies & I are featuring Clearly Besotted products on our cards this week. You don't have to use them for the challenge but if you have them we'd love to see them.
For today's card I have die cut Simon's Gift Card Envelope & stamped on it the first part of my sentiment using a sentiment from Simon's Holiday Circle Sayings stamp set, & I've used Clearly Besotted You & I stamp set to stamp the remainder of my sentiment & then framed it with a Prima resin frame.
I've stamped some snowflakes & cute little hearts on my gift envelope in distress ink using stamps from Simon's Winter Warmth & Holiday Envelopes stamp sets. My die cut snowflakes are from Simon's Stitched Snowflakes & the Snowflake Banner dies, they are so pretty & a must have for me now when creating Christmas cards.
The flowers have been whitewashed with watered down gesso & then sprinkled with glitter as they were more brightly coloured than I wanted for this card, & as you can see I have popped a gift card & money in the gift envelope.
