Simon Says Anything Goes PLUS...

Simon Says: Anything Goes
(CLOSES JULY 3, 2018)

BUT!

There is also a KIDS CHALLENGE!
(Ends in 28 days, kids only ages 2-16)

I started my card with a distress white background inlaid with a red embossed panel. My favorite distress tool is from CTMH, 
but you can also just use SCISSORS!


Next, I used a dauber and some Tim Holtz distress ink onto the fern leaf additions because they were super light in color,
and added those to the center ensemble. I added a white die cut
underneath to make everything pop!
(holy cow, not oxide?!! I know, crazy right?)


OMGosh if you want perfect fussy cutting and accuracy, 
you MUST GET THESE SCISSORS!!
The blade is sharp enough to draw blood!
(Ya, you don't wanna know how I know this!)


I popped the cute little buttons up with DOUBLE foam!
(Those flowers stood pretty high, I had to help them compete for the attention whore spotlight! lol)



I used a couple of flowers given to me way back by one of you sweet dandelions!
(So sorry I can't remember exactly who)


I feel like this was a little outside my norm. It will NOT fit in an envelope to mail, so I'll have to give it to someone
in person. 
I love to see the expression on their face!!!

OH! By the way, this card came together quickly
My Gemini!

(I searched for the very best price, and you can get it from this link for only $139.99! Don't be fooled by other $200 price tags!)

See you next post!

    2. Hi Jen!! Congrats on the win!! That’s awesome!! Did you hear back from Lin about this? I just want to make sure you did. I don’t get notified when people reply to my comments. I’m not sure if that’s a me thing or an everyone thing... 🤔
