Simon Says Stamp Kids Summer Vacation Challenge

Good afternoon lovely peeps!

Welcome to another of our annual Simon Says Stamp Summer Vacation Kid's Challenge where we host a special challenge dedicated to our young designers.


This year our challenge is -

Anything Goes With Sparkle!



It is time for all you crafters to let your children loose in your crafty corners for a few hours. Just close your eyes and set them free to explore their creativity. Adults are allowed to help just a little bit if necessary, but we really want the children to 'DO IT' themselves as much as possible.

You can enter as many times as you like, just remember to add your link into the inlinkz system at the bottom of the 
Kids Vacation Challenge
on the 
Wednesday Challenge Blog!
 If you have several entries on the same post add ?1. ?2, ?3 etc at the end of the url and they will be accepted into the system.

The Design Team all love this challenge and are ready and waiting to pop over to your blog to see your creations!

I am honoured to have 3 junior guest designers joining me on my blog today. 
All of my junior guest designers have created these cards without help other than a little to line up their stamps so I think they have done a fabulous job! It's no surprise to see my gorgeous great niece & nephew have clearly inherited my love of sparkle :)


My great niece Casey aged 7, has created this beautiful card using Simon Says Stamp's Beautiful Mermaids clear stamp set.


My great nephew Ollie aged 8, has created this gorgeous card featuring Simon Says Stamps Bee Yourself Clear Stamp Set.


My daughters partners son, Wyatt aged 10, has created this wonderful sea themed card using Simon Says Stamps Beautiful Mermaids clear stamp set.

All images have been stamped in Simon's Black Pigment Ink and have various types of glitter applied.

 Other supplies used -

We have not 1, not 2 but  3 surprise parcels of crafty goodies, hand picked by Simon. All winners are chosen at random, Good Luck to all!


If you share your creation on instagram, please add this hashtag so that we can find you #ssskidschallenge




My lovely little junior guest designers have each created two cards for me to share for this challenge so I will share the other cards during August.
