simon says stamp wednesday challenge: christmas/holidays

Wed-newchallenge-header

Time for a new challenge over on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog. This week’s challenge is Christmas/Holidays and the design team is using products from Stampendous. I used the Grunge set designed by Nathalie Kalbach (did you know all of these stamp sets also come with a stencil) along with some Distress paint to create this artsy Chrismas card. 

Wishing You Peace by Cheiron Brandon

This is what the stamps look like in the set: 

Grunge

 

I used the stamp on the bottom, painted on it with Festive Berries and Pine Needles Distress Paints. When the paint was dry, I traced over the circle shapes with a Versamark marker and then embossed them in gold. Then a simple sentiment embossed on a painted strip to finish it off. 

Remember, just by playing along and linking up your project to the SSS Wednesday Challenge post you can qualify to enter a $50 shopping voucher to the Simon Says Stamp store.

One lucky winner will be chosen at random, it could be you!
