Die Crazy! - Simon Says Stamp DT

Hello lovely peeps!
I've had a crazy week at work & I am so pleased I have two days off to recharge my batteries!
It's my baby girls birthday tomorrow and I am yet to finish her birthday card so I really am a woman on a mission trying to get it finished as it's a proper Mandy style card with lots of pretty embellishments on :)

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our last weeks special challenge & blog hop, I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.

It's Wednesday which means ..........    

 at
& this week our challenge is
DIE CRAZY! 
Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog
We are showcasing
Wplus9
 products on our cards this week.
You don’t have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used
Don't forget you can enter our challenge 5 times and there is no limit to how many challenges you combine your entry with.

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

I decided to do some faux embossing on this card so I die cut several of Wplus9's Seasonal Sentiments and adhered them to my card & then ran the card through by cuttlebug. I kept this card nice and simple as I didn't want to detract from the background so just added my favourite SSS Snowflake and a few gems. The sentiment is also by Wplus9 & is called Pretty Patchworks Stamps.
Sometimes wishing someone a "Happy Christmas" seems to be the wrong thing to say when you know their heart is breaking & they are overwhelmed with grief which I why I chose to add the sentiment wishing them "Hope".

My card today features some lovely new STAMPtember® stamps and dies as well as Simon's lovely ink pads, card stock & large tag die.
I never usually use yellow / gold on cards as it's not a colour I'm keen on but thought I would have a change & chose Autumn colours including my dreaded yellow lol.
I absolute love the STAMPtember® goodies in store & hope you do too :)
