Time for a new challenge over on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog. This week's challenge is Make Your Own Background and the Design Team is using Faber Castell gelatos. I used mine to make a messy background, then added lots of fun layers with stencils, paste and inks:
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!
I hope you get to join in on all the fun and play along with the challenge. I can't wait to stop by some of your blogs and take a peek at what you have made. Have fun!
Make sure to check back each Wednesday for another fun challenge over at the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge Blog!

It does you good to just get messy sometimes!! Love the effect of the embossing pastes and stamps - very "mixed media"!
