It's Monday and a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge is here. Despite the cold weather we dream about a "piece of paradise". We do you dream of when you think of paradise? We sure want to know and see your creations!
When I think of paradise, I think of beautiful palms, exotic plants and beautiful nature. I was inspired by the botanical part of paradise. I started with the Mini Leaves stencil with various colors green Distress Ink.
The Palm Fronts stencil fits perfectly with this challenge. To give it a more organic look, I used it with green colored Crackle Texture Paste. To bring more dimension to the tag I used the Clustered Leaves die from Simon Says Stamp. On top of the sentiment I applied some glitter with the Wink of Stella Glitter Clear Brush pen.
To join in all you need to do is make a project that fits this weeks challenge and you can be the winner of the $50 gift voucher that our amazing sponsor Simon Says Stamp offers. This prize will go to a random entry. So go over to the Stamp and Show Monday Challenge blog, let the DT members inspire you and join in the fun!
Thank you for stopping by! Love to see you next time!
Hugs,
Sandra
