Simon Says............Anything Goes

Welcome to another challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog!

Our theme this week is the ever-popular Anything Goes, and the design team are all playing with Stampendous products.  I made 2 cards for you today, both of them flowers and both of them in shades of purple.

Lilacs are probably my favorite flower, so when I saw this cling set, I jumped!

supplies: white cardstock and Bristol paper, Stampendous Cling Lilac, Zig watercolor markers and water,  Signo white gel pen, The Crafter's Workshop Mini Cubist stencil and tumbled glass distress ink, sentiment from (retired) Mama Elephant/Simon Summer Garden, adhesive foam squares

We always had lilac bushes growing up, and they bring back fond memories of home.  I colored these a pinky purple to mimic a transplant that my Dad gave us, and fussy-cut my flower and leaves, then glued the leaves over my stencilled panel and popped the flower up a bit with foam squares - I like the dimension. 

My 2nd card uses a Stampendous set I got a few years ago, which is one of my favorites because of all the different flowers that are in it, along with 2 jars/vases to put them in!  I think the flowers that I used today look like spring violets, and I love seeing them in this canning jar,  also in the set.  And I love how they look mixed with the gingham!

supplies: Bristol paper, lilac cardstock, gingham dp from My Favorite Things Farm Fresh Gingham, Stampendous Build a Bouquet cling stamps, Zig watercolor markers and water, Winnie & Walter Big Bold Seasons cutaway, Simon Scallop Stitches die, adhesive foam squares
