Hi crafty friends, welcome to this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! Thank you for joining us for the Steampunk Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too. This week we are having fun with spring and making projects inspired by this Spring Mood Board.
The lovely Macarena has made this gorgeous mood board for our inspiration!
For my card this week, I was in inspired by the lovely spring flowers. It always feels like spring to me when the flowers start to bloom. I used the Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Bouquet stencil over a Distress Mixed Media Heavystock Panel that was inked and stamped with Tiny Text. I then added DIstress Crackle Texture Paste through a stencil and added Embossing Glaze over the top. When it was dry, I embossed it with a heat tool. I added some Photobooth, Ephemera and a Quote Chip.
As you may know, the Simon Says Stamp Store is accepting new orders, but have longer shipping times for the moment due to the coronavirus. With this in mind we have made the difficult decision to suspend the $50 voucher for this challenge.
We know that many people are staying safe at home and we would love it if you would continue to enter the challenges and have fun! We are all in this together!
So now it's YOUR turn, Happy Crafting
You have until Monday 8am Ohio time. 1pm UK time, 2 pm CET to join in!

Wow - I could dive into that turquoise background - stunning! Love the contrasting golden texture of the flower and the tinting on the photo is wonderful. That exact Photobooth woman is sitting on a half-made tag on my desk at the moment - I'm tempted to make her blush now!
