Simon Says Stamp and Show Me...

....A WORD!

For other details, to see other wonderful creations, AND to enter your own, check out the Simon Says Stamp and Show Blog!

HOPE.....'cause without it....we got nothin'!
I used the Mover and Shaper Mini Baroque and Hope die to make the sentiment.
Gotta love the Art Parts Flower and Stem ! I layered it up with some grungepaper flowers, and of course, I should mention that all the stamps I used are Studio 490...it's just wrong not to use the stamps when using Art Parts...lol.
And hey, lookee there, I decided to go bright this week, how 'bout it? I used my fave Paint Dabber colors in Pool, Lettuce and Red Pepper, and a Maya Road Vintage Button for the flower center..those buttons are AWESOME...you must buy some. Now.



If you have any other questions on how I did something or what I used, please ask!
Oh, the little wood bird house was a garage sale find, got a whole box for, like, a dollar, so I covered it in tissue tape, with a little Clearly for Art birdie.
