Simon Says.........Touchy-Feely!

wed-newchallenge-header
Happy Wednesday!  It's time for another challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday blog!


This week we have a fun theme for you - we're calling it Touchy/Feely, and by that we want you to add some texture to your creation.  You could use a stencil and texture paste, or choose a material other than paper.  The Design Team are all playing with My Favorite Things products this week.

I chose a die set called the Mini Hybrid Heirloom Rose and some pretty felt to make my cards.  This first one uses all 3 dies together to make my flowers, and I kept everything pastel.  


supplies: cream cardstock, plank and dotted dps, DieNamics Mini Hybrid Heirloom Rose and Layered Leaves dies, Taylored Expressions Cherry Blossom, Orchid, and Avocado felt, also Harvest Gold, various pastel pearls, Simon's It's Your Birthday stamps, Hero Arts Latte ink

And my 2nd card used the non-rolling dies from the set, and my colors shifted to brights:


supplies: white and black cardstock, black dotted dp, DieNamics Mini Hybrid Heirloom Rose, another flower die, bright felt colors, orange buttons, Simon's Painted Hello die, yellow enamel dots

Now it's your turn - I can't wait to see what you create!  Heidi has provided another $50.00 gift voucher
