This week the design team is working with Basic Grey products - you are welcome to do the same, but it's not necessary. I used the 3 roses stamp from one of my favorite sets called Pattern Hearts & Flowers I kept my card mostly black and white except for the tiny touches of blue and green. Here's my card:
I stamped my roses 3 times, cutting out smaller portions of the flowers each time and built them up with pop-dots. The background embossing on my card is from one of the folders in this Sizzix Floral Flourishes and Vines set.
Heidi and the Simon Says Stamp Store have generously provided another $50.00 voucher for the random winner of this challenge.
Please visit us at our Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog to see what our Guest Designer Kristina and my team mates have done this week, and then play along with us! Let's see how Kristina's picture inspires you!
And since the timing is right and these are Hero stamps, I'd like to enter this into the Freestyle challenge at A Blog Named Hero.
