Anyone ready for a new challenge with Simon Says Stamps Monday Challenge? Oh wait...did I forget to mention I'm the newest Designer for Simon Says Stamps Monday Challenge. It's true and I'm thrilled to be on such a creative team...and a little stunned.
My first challenge with Simon Says Stamps Monday Challenge is Anything Goes! I decided to use the Correspondence paper pack as my foundation of inspiration. I recently shared a peak at this project but I wanted to share the FULL project!
One of my favorite releases this year is the Envelope Die! I love this envelope and all it's potential.
Who loves the new Tiny Tattered Florals...this crafter sure does.
I just love the
Photobooth vintage photo's. They are the perfect layer to any project.
I added the Handwritten Cherish from the Love Thinlits. I'm still trying to find the dot for the letter "i".
I trimmed up the mixed media honeycomb and inked it with some abandon coral, cracked pistachio and mustard seed.
I created wee cards and stamped with the Correspondence stamp. Then I added an Idea-Ology Pen Nib.
Ohhh the Airmail Paper String...enough said.
I wrapped a small $1 Store canvas with the Correspondence Designer Tape pulling it all together.
Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to take a peek. I'm really excited to share my Monday's with you. That, and I have nothing much else to do today. Oh wait...nope I'm working so I can buy more crafty things so you'll keep coming back.
welcome - and what a beautiful first project!!! :)

ReplyDeleteThis would be such a wonderful project idea to display real family photos--your dimension/detail bring so much life to otherwise flat media. The effect is simple and surprising. Thank you for this inspiration!

Wonderful Nicole and congratulations on being chosen for the Simon Says Stamp design team (and it's not surprising that they chose you at all! )
ReplyDeleteWelcome Nicole!! Love this piece ... especially those tiny cards ... amazing. The airmail paper string just "ties" it all together. Fabulous. By the way, I hate losing things on my craft table too. There are some things that I never find!! Hope you were able to find the dot for your i :) -- Mary Elizabeth
ReplyDeleteSO glad you're on the team, Nicole! I've been a long-time fan of your fabulous eclectic and creative vibe and SSS couldn't have picked a more perfect designer to join us. I really like what you did with this piece and how you mixed those creamy peachy-pinks with the pops of red, blue and white. It looks fantastic and I can't wait to see what you come up with from week to week!
ReplyDeleteI love this. I plan to use this idea for family history accent piece. So cool.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fabulous first project for our Monday Challenge! So happy you're joining our team! This is absolutely gorgeous! Love the pattern paper, and the envelopes are such a great touch! Hugs, Sandra
ReplyDeleteThis is just fabulous Nicole! I love the mixed media die in the top corner and those little 'hidden' flowers xx
ReplyDeleteNicole!
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the team. I was pretty excited when I found out that you'd be joining us. I enjoy seeing your projects. You've got some awesome skills! For instance....THIS ONE! Your attention to detail is wonderful. Love how you've used that envelope die. That die has been on my wishlist for a long time. This project of yours just threw it into the shopping cart. :)
