Simply Stampin' Challenge Week 14

Its time for another new challenge this week at Simply Stampin' we have a fabulous colour challege for your inspiration. 

I will admit when I first looked at the colours I had no idea how to use them all together but I love this card!!

I used Night of Navy for my card base and inked up the monsters from the Make a Monster stamp set and coloured them in Peach Parfait and Rich Razzleberry, adding a boarder of faux stitching in Rich Razzleberry.  The sentiment is from Perfect Punches, I used the marker pens to colour the stamp, a bit of crystal effects on the eyes to give them araised finish.

We would love to see your cards again this week, if your needing inspiration for these colour take a look at the fabulous creations from the design team here.

Monster Birthday

Today it is my "baby's" birthday - Philip is 5 today!!!!!  How could that happen??? It doesn't seem 5 minutes since he was born, never mind 5 years!!

At times he can be a little monster so I thought the Make a Monster stamp set would be the perfect choice for his card!!  I haven't made any easel cards for a while???

I have used the vibrant Celebrations12x12 papers along with Real red, Old Olive and Pacific Point card stock, I love how all of the Stampin' Up! products co-ordinate!! The Make a Monster stamp set is fabulous, there are so many possabilities as it is a two step stamping set you can create a new monster every time!!!  I think this will become one of my new favourites!!!  I have used the stamp-ma-jig to line up the Just Perfect Alphabet stamps and the extra large oval punch for Philip.  I stamped and cut out some balloons and the party this way sign and layered them on diamensionals.

Well I know my morning is going to flash by un-packing boxes of toys and putting Philip's play mobile pirate ship together so he can get on and play after school!!  Hope you have a good day!!
