Simon Says ,,,,,,, Anything Goes :-)



Hi all  :-) Did you all have a Merry Christmas ?? I hope you had a lovely time with your family.
 My parents are here with us and we had a lovely day and we also got in touch with most of my family on Skype ,, which was fab ! :-)

This week the challenge is ,,,,,,,,

ANYTHING GOES !! :-)

This week is a little different, we had a little secret Santa gift swap among the DT, we made each other a gift and bought some crafty goodies to pop in the parcel too and we are showing you what we made for each other :-)

As always Heidi will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store!

It was lovely to wake up on Christmas morning and have a crafty parcel to open, we did a similar thing on the Wild Rose Studio DT too so I had lots of crafty pressies to play with. Thank you so much Mandy and Dulcie :-) xx

I made this notebook  and a small post it-note holder for Jo and bought some crafty bits and bobs :-)


First of all I covered some mountboard with Tim Holtz Shabby Vintage paper and masked and inked using lots of distress inks and sprayed with Studio Calico Shine.  I will link all the products I used at the bottom of this post :-)

Thanks for looking :-) The DT have all made fabulous creations and to see what the lovely Mandy made for me and what the rest of the team made for each other you will need to pop over to the Simon Says Stamp Challenge to see them :-)

I used this very cute Bella with Wand image from the Wild Rose Studio.  I  have actually used a Printed Panel,, perfect for when you are pushed for time ! :-)


I used Bazzill Basics Peppermint card for layering and the DP is from  a Xmas Bella  pack. I added some White Flower soft to his hat trims, star dust stickles on the stars and Glitter Ritz Opaque White on the snow drifts and snowflake . The ribbon is from the Vintage Christmas collection from Crafty Ribbons and I added a few Robins Next Dew drops to finish :-)


Thanks for looking :-) Hope you all have a lovely week and best wishes for a Happy New Year and a prosperous 2013 :-)

Luv to all xx
