Simon Says: Nautical on the Monday Challenge










Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge

We also have a special challenge for children between the ages of 2 and 16! CLICK HERE or on the logo to go directly to the challenge page



Nautical
definition: of or relating to sailors, ships, or navigation:

Many of our friends have spent their summer vacation on board cruise ships, some have been boating on lakes, and some have been sailing across one of the seven seas, we would like you to cruise along with us and create something with voyages into the unknown in mind.

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

Please pop by to see what Simo, our guest designer, and the DT have made for our inspiration! 

I decided to to create something 'Astro-Nautical' using some of the new products in the  'Encouraging Words' Release. 


 I blended Fired Brick, Cracked Pistachio and Faded Jeans Oxide Inks and then spritzed and splattered with water and white gesso. 


I also used a 'You're A Star' and Space Journey Craft Dies to complete my ' Astro-Nautical' scene. 


and I finished the inside



Thanks for looking! 

So now it's YOUR turn to get creating!

Do you use Instagram ?  If so please add  #sssmchallenge so we can see your entries there too





You have until Monday 8am Ohio time. 1pm UK time, 2 pm CET to join in

House Mouse 'Air Mail'


I am here with a reminder for you all to please join in with the House Mouse and Friends Challenge!

This week the lovely Christine has chosen the theme 

Anything But A card

of course you can always choose the Anything Goes option too ;-)

My parents are here on vacation and Mum saw the lovely Post It Note holder that Bunny made last week and she dropped a hint that she would like one so here it is ;-) 
I used the cardboard back of an A3 paper pack and cut 2 pieces 14x10 cm for the base. 


I used a House Mouse 'Air Mail' cling stamp and die cut the image using a Postage Edge Frames Die. I used a larger size post it notes and was able to tie a pencil onto the size, handy I thought ;-) 


And the inside 



We are thrilled to be welcoming back our AWESOME sponsor
