It's Wednesday and that means another challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge!
We have a fun theme for you this week: Animal Antics! Put an animal/bird/critter on your creation! I've gone to the birds myself this week..........
Stampendous makes about 3 of these little chicks wearing hats - this one is called Floral Bonnet Baby, and I'm sorry to say that all of them went out of stock at the Simon store since I got her. I colored her with some Spectrum Noir markers and paired her up with some Doodlebug Designs Hello Spring design papers. My sentiment is computer generated around my stamped "Easter" (from a discontinued The Craft's Meow Easter set). And I've been humming this song ever since this card was conceived!
This image just makes me smile, and brought to mind the term "bluebird of happiness", so my sentiment seemed right with it. I colored these sweeties again with my Spectrum Noir markers, then cut them out into a Nestabilities Labels Twenty die, and sponged on some tumbled glass distress ink while it was still in the die. I thought the blossoms from Simon's Thinking of You set were a good match to the ones in the main image, and I added leaves from Lawn Fawn's Stitched Leaves die set.
Now it's your turn! What will you make this week? As always, there's a $50.00 gift voucher to the amazing Simon Says Stamp Superstore up for grabs to a random player!
