Hello again, and as I said I have two cards today and so I'm back with another card. This time my card is for the new challenge starting today at Simon Says Challenge as it's my fifth week here, but also, sad to say, my last week as Designer in the Spotlight. I have enjoyed this time here so much, and never ever had thought this would happen to me. So thank you to Lorraine, Heidi, Steph and all the DT girls at Simon Says for giving me this opportunity to join you this month... I have truly enjoyed it ......

Onto my card now, this week the theme is an easy one

ANYTHING GOES

And so I decided to do a simple birthday card, using this sweet stamp Strawberry Kisses from Crafters Companion. The beautiful paper is from the Uncommon Authentique paper pad and then I used Promarkers to colour my image and twine and a little charm to finish off my card.

The corner die is Cheery Lynn, which I have cut in smaller pieces this time and this is Donna's sketch that I used to do my card today.

As usual Heidi is offering one lucky winner a $50 voucher to spend in the Simon Says Store.

Please check out the fantastic inspiration from all the Simon Says DT

Moon and Stars

Hello everyone, good afternoon. It's a nice sunny day here today for a change.. we haven't been having nice weather lately, windy, some rain and cooler as well.. but now it seems it will be nice again.

Anyway, I am here today with my DT card for the new challenge at Sweet Stampin and this week we want to see MOON and STARS

We are so lucky to be sponsored by Bugaboo Stamps

and so we could choose an image from the store. I loved making this card as it was a nice break from the busy days I am going through at the moment.. and so quick it was too.. coloured image while waiting for son to finish football, had all the digi papers printed and then I punched some stars to finish it off!

By the way, my moon is the green paper.. if you look closely you can see the craters of the moon surface ... you weren't thinking that I left the moon out were you ?? :D
