Today I am featuring an adorable Whimsey Stamps Baby Ellie Cuddles clear stamp & Checker Background die. I have featured these previously on this card here, & as my friend Sophie had her baby girl on Sunday & I needed to create a card for her I thought I would feature these again.

I've stamped my image onto Copic X Press It card stock and then coloured it with my copics. I've die cut the Checkerboard die using Simon's Woodgrain card stock, & added a sentiment from Simon's Baby clear stamp set & Baby wafer die Isla Rose's name has been computer generated, & the design papers are Polkadoodles Timeless Rose.

I looked through my many Stampendous stamps but unfortunately didn't have one suitable to feature today so I have used an alternative image which I bought from Simon Says Stamp a while ago but haven't had time to colour until now.

I have featured an adorable Stamping Bella rubber stamp called Bundle Girl With Reindeer & I stamped my image onto Copic X Press It card stock and then coloured it with my copics. I'm by no means confident at colouring animals with adding in the fur detail & a couple of times I did think I'd messed it up so I'm going to enjoy having more practice at colouring fur.

I've stenciled some snow over my image using Simon's Falling Snow Stencil & Dreamweaver Embossing Paste & added a sentiment from Simon's Everything Winter Sentiment Strips.

I created a card for this challenge featuring Paper Rose Peonies clear stamp set which is no longer available but Simon does have a huge amount of beautiful Peony stamps here!

I have stamped my images in Ink On 3 Fadeout ink onto Canson XL watercolour paper & water coloured them using Altenew watercolour pan set.

For my die element I die cut a background using Whimsy Stamps Checker background die and before popping out the die cuts I stamped Your Next Stamps Mini Star Ink Splatter in Simon's Fog Gray ink pad to add some delicate tiny stars around my flowers.

As you may know, the  Simon Says Stamp Store is accepting new orders, but have longer shipping times for the moment due to the coronavirus. With this in mind we have made the difficult decision to suspend the $50 voucher for this challenge.
