Simon Says........Distress It!

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

Our theme this week is Distress It! and my teammates and I are showcasing Tim Holtz goodies!

supplies: white and black card, Bristol paper, Tim Holtz Wildflower dies, distress oxide inks (peeled paint, carved pumpkin, abandoned coral, wilted violet, fossilized amber, and broken china in the background, smooshed with water), finger daubers, Tim Holtz Idea-ology Small Talk sticker, Simon's Four Seasons  and Stitched Rectangle dies

I cut the Wildflower dies and inked them with my distress oxides.  Then I smooshed some broken china oxide onto my stitched rectangle panel.  After it was dry I affixed it to my card base and arranged my flowers.  Simon's new Summer die, from the Four Seasons set, along with a sticker from Tim's Small Talk booklet, made the perfect sentiment.  I didn't add glue to the tops of some of my flowers, so that they'd stand out a bit for dimension.

Here's another card using the same Wildflower dies, except in cool blues and greens this time:

supplies: Simon's Cornflower, and Audrey Blue card, old My Mind's Eye notebook dp, notebook edge punch, (HERE's a die that would also work), Wildflower dies, distress oxide inks (broken china, faded jeans, peacock feathers, cracked pistachio, and lucky clover), finger daubers, Simon's Joy dies, Tim Holtz Idea-ology Small Talk sticker, twine

Once again, I sponged the flowers with the inks and added a mix of a Simon sentiment die and another of Tim's stickers for my sentiment.
