Are you ready for another Simon Says Stamp Challenge? Great!! This week we are challenging you to create a card using buttons. The team is also using Basic Grey paper or stamps so if you want to join us please do!!
Here are a couple of details about my card. I was excited to use the new Basic Grey Nordic 6x6 paper pad. The colors and patterns are fantastic. I thought that Reindeer Tilda would be the perfect character to use with this paper. So festive!! I also used this week's sketch from Sketch Saturday so I will be entering my card in that challenge too.
I colored her with my Copics and cut her out. Then I punched a scalloped border for her to sit on and attached her with foam dots for dimension!! The sentiment is from a new set from Hero Arts called Holiday Sayings. It is loaded with different holiday sentiments that are the perfect size for cards. I will probably never need another set again it is so versatile!! I used a Martha Stewart punch for the holly and snowflakes and the Snowflakes Cuttlebug folder to add the texture behind Tilda.
The little bit of shine on her jingle bell necklace is from a Silver Atyou Spica pen from Copic. Be sure to stop by the Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog to see the rest of the teams cards and be sure to link up your challenge card. You could be the winner of the $50 Simon Says Stamp gift certificate given away each week to a random participant.
Supplies:
Gorgeous card Christine :-) I love this Tilda with her antlers, very cute and the papers and embellies are fab :-) The embossed background and pom pom trim are perfect :-)
