Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge : Interactive Card

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 to make an

Interactive Card 

we would like to have some fun with this, maybe shaker cards, a hidden element, slider, pop up, there are lots of different techniques we could use!

We are showcasing Lawn Fawn 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

The lovely folks over at Simon Says Stamp are generously giving away a FABULOUS $50 voucher to shop at the  Simon Says Stamp Store! All you have to do is take out your crafty supplies, make something following this week’s prompt, and add a link in the Inlinkz at the bottom of this post! You can join 5 times so you could have 5 chances to win! How AWESOME is that!! All winners are chosen randomly, so everyone has an equal chance to win! Woo Hoo!! Good Luck to everyone! The Design Team is looking forward to seeing your crafty makes and will pop around to visit you ASAP!

Here's my card for the challenge inspiration. I used Let's Toast Pull Tab Add-On Dies from Lawn Fawn.

This Pull Tab Dies set looked so much fun! Just pull the tab and a piece of bread will come out of toaster :) 

All the images from Let's Toast Stamp set, and Coffee and Tea Stamp set were colored with Copic Markers and cut using Coordinating Dies. 

 For background panel, I cut Lawn Fawn papers with Wonky Rectangles Dies and Wavy Scallop Stitches Dies from Simon Says Stamp. 

In order to keep the main color theme of lovely pink, I used Copic Markers R89-R85-R83-R81-RV000 for the toaster. 

I also added a little heart on the tab so it would come out when pulling the tab upward.

Once you're done with coloring and choosing panel, the rest is too simple. Just use the Let's Toast Pull Tab Add-On Dies and then assemble the die-cuts. 

After I put my images together, I searched my stash to find perfect sentiment for the scene and found this wonderful sentiment from Breakfast Buddies Stamp set! 

Here's the full list of supplies I used with links to online store product page. Hope you will enjoy them, too.

I'm also entering this card to the current LawnFawnatics Challenge #46.

I'm so sorry to let you know that I'm leaving the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Design Team, so sadly this card is my last one for the challenge. It was such a painful decision and it did take a few months to make.  I'm facing important changes in my life, really need to focus on my job (and my career), family and health. Among my health issues, ocular hypertension especially worries me and leads me to decide to change my lifestyles in general... 

I've really enjoyed the design team works and I've got so much love from all of you and the team. It was my dream come true to work in the Simon Design Team. I'm so grateful for the opportunity you offered, your love and kindness, Heidi, Susan, Stephanie, and Simon Team. Even though I'm stepping down, I'll always think of you and will love Simon Says Stamp forever :) 

It's been a great honor to be on the same team with you, Wednesday Challenge Sisters! Each of you has your own unique style and you've always given me lots of new inspiration. Thank you for all the warm comments and kindness you've shown to me. I was so happy to call you sisters. 

Thank you and blessings to you all.

Hugs.

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge : Anything Goes

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

Thank you for joining us for the Have A Heart Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

Anything Goes

We are showcasing Impression Obsession 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

The lovely folks over at Simon Says Stamp are generously giving away a FABULOUS $50 voucher to shop at the  Simon Says Stamp Store! 

Good Luck to everyone! The Design Team is looking forward to seeing your crafty makes and will pop around to visit you ASAP!

Here's my card for which I used Layered Heart Frame Die.

I did in-laid diecut techniuqe using Layered Heart Frame Die and scraps . 

Then I added small sentiment from Floral Hearts Set on the left lower corner.

I tried to make a light-up card for the first time and here's a very simple circuit I made using copper tape, small light and a battery. 

I then foam mounted my panel onto this circuit. 

You can see a light glowing behind the grid piece on the right upper coner.  

And here's a video showing how the light turns on and off. When you press the small sentiment part, the light turns on.  I wish I added another light to the circuit, but this was my first time trying anyway :) 

Even without light or circuit, I think this frame die would make good Valentine themed cards for itself. Besides, it gives a perfect opprtunity to use up of your scrap papers.  I really love this Die! 

So now it’s YOUR turn. 
 Happy Crafting

Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge : Have a Heart

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

Thank you for joining us for the CAS Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

This week the challenge is

Have a Heart 

We are showcasing My favorite Things 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

The lovely folks over at Simon Says Stamp are generously giving away a FABULOUS $50 voucher to shop at the  Simon Says Stamp Store! Good Luck to everyone! The Design Team is looking forward to seeing your crafty makes and will pop around to visit you ASAP!

Here's my card for the challenge inspiration. I used So Much Love Stamp and other MFT products.

I stamped cute girls from So Much Love and Blowing Kisses in brown ink and colored them lightly using Copic Markers.
I used G24-G21-G20 for green and E95-E93-YR000 for coral dress.  I then cut them using So Much Coordinating Die and Blowing Kiss Coordinating Die.

I made a spring & Valentime themed background using Reverse Hearts Stencil and Grassy Edges Dies from Simon Says Stamp. I used a few MFT dye inks for coloring them, but I think you can use any soft tone colors of inks you have in your stash. I diecut my panel using Mod Rectangle Die.

To give more visual interests to my scene, I added a Garden Gate diecut because I found  the gate had a heart shape and it would look perfect on my grassy scene.  I also added some cute spring animals from  Spring Friends set  and completed my scene.

A sentiment from Blowing Kisses was heat embossed in white on Schoolhouse Red Card stock using White Embossing Powder Fine Detail. I then cut it into a banner using Fishtail Sentiment Strips Dies. I chose light yellow pattern paper from Pastel Tiny Hearts 6×6 for bottom background, and I adhered some sequins as a final embellishment. 

So now it’s YOUR turn.
