Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes Featuring Clearly Besotted and Lil’ Inker Designs

01/28/2015

Time for a NEW Simon Says Stamp Wednesday ChallengeI am back with a Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge card! 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 Clearly Besotted and Lil’Inker Designs this week. You don’t have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used.

As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

When shopping on the SSS website I was immediately drawn to the “Stay Beautiful” Lil’Inker Set. I loved the uplifting sentiments and that is what I decided to build my card around.

I LOVE this sentiment and the boxing gloves are a perfect fit! I water colored the boxing gloves with Distress Ink and then fussy cut them out. Once on the card I put glossy accents over the boxing gloves. The hearts are 3 that were included with the set, I positioned them as a cluster on an acrylic block and stamped them with Hero Arts Soft Blossom Ink going up the card. I used a quickie glue pen and ultrafine crystal glitter on a few of the hearts. I stamped the sentiment in Slate Simon Says Stamp Dye Ink.

For the diagonal lines on either side of the card I used Clearly Besotted Diagonal Stripes Clear Stamp Set. I have seen this done before on cards, and I really liked the look of the lines peeking out from the main layer of the card. I used Simon Says Stamp Doll Pink Dye Ink for this ( shameless plug: btw this is the ink you get as part of the kit for my online card class 😉  )
