Happy Wednesday! Welcome to another challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday blog!
It's the last week of the month, so that means it's Anything Goes! My teamies and I are playing with Avery Elle products this week, and if you have anything of their's, we'd love to see you using them too!
I love wreaths, and have had this Banner & Wreath set on my wishlist, so I was thrilled to be able to get it and use it for this challenge. The little birds that are included were a real plus for me! I decided to use seasonal colors, as fall has been calling to me these last hot days of August.
supplies: white and Hero Arts Latte cardstock, Avery Elle Banner & Wreath stamps, Memento Markers, VersaFine onyx black and Hero Arts Latte inks, MFT DieNamics Stitched Mini Scallop die, flower sequins
This set has the perfect sized wreath, and lots and lots of floral sprigs - I only used one of them, along with the birds and 1 of the sentiments in this set. There are matching dies, but I enjoyed fussy-cutting these out myself.
supplies: Bristol paper, Avery Elle Floral Frame clear stamp set, Spectrum Aqua markers and water, peacock feathers and a bit of twisted citron distress inks for background washes, adhesive foam squares, Simon moonshine sequins
I white embossed my flower sprays, colored them in with a bit of water, and fussy-cut around their inside edges, leaving the corners of each piece intact. Then I watercolored the outside edges of each panel. I did the same for the card base before stamping and white embossing the sentiment. To finish, the panels were popped above the card base, and I sprinkled some sequins.
Now it's your turn - I can't wait to see what you create! Heidi has provided another $50.00 gift voucher
