I've been hunting for a while trying to work out what pack of pattern paper I got the wooden effect one from and for the life of me I can't remember. I do have a pile of current ones from Simon says Stamps but which I simply can't find.

Meanwhile the gorgeous rose blossom is Gina K Savanah Rose stamp which I have fussy cut and layer. I colour with pencils just in case you're interested, I do have copics but they hurt my joints getting the lids off and on again.

I used the Stitched Rectangles from Simon says Stamp since it allows me to layer and mat my card.
The Love is their die and the words that are embossed with white embossing power is from the co-ordinating stamp set.

My first attempted ended in the bin, I was thinking of grey and pink for my colours but didn't quite work out when I blended them. So I made a new card but just splattered the colours.

Once dried I used Gina K Designs Perfect Blend for the first part of my sentiment and then I added the Simon says Stamp Always and Forever for the rest.

It was this point I used the Simon says Stamp Wonky Rectangles to give it a finished look. I had stamped the coffee cups on another piece of paper so I could fussy cut them out and layer then at the bottom of my sentiment.

Need to find somewhere else to photo my cards so that I don't get a shadow down one side but I've horrible feeling it was actually my shadow oops.

Thinking of You

Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge
Thank you for joining us for the Anything Goes Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.
This week the challenge is

Animal Magic   

We are showcasing Gina K  Products this week. You don't have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used.
As always the lovely Heidi and team Simon will be giving away a $50 Voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store ! 

Sshh I know its not an animal but a bird I checked google and it mentions that birds are a class of animal.

I've used Gina K Wetlands 2 big apologies since the stamp set is now out of stock but I would recommend using notify me when back in stock. I've used a few times and it works a treat.

One of Hubby's friend as lost her Mum and he wanted a sympathy card, although I find CAS are the best way to go for these type of cards I would rather not make them.

I used Tim Holtz Tonic Stamp Platform especially with new clear stamps and it help me to be able to create a scene. I cut the heron twice and fussy cut one so it is slightly raised.

Forgot to say I had already cut my white card with Simon Says Stamp Stitched Rectangles (the most used die set in my whole craftroom). Sorry they out of stock at the mo, will be back soon I'm sure.

My favourite stamp at the moment is Simon Says Stamp Thoughtful Messages and it as a beautiful Thinking of you sentiment which I've used here.

A bit of sadness to see so many of the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge leave us for various reason and I wish them all well.
