It's A Guy Thing

Welcome to Wednesday! It's time for a new Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge! This week is all about the boys! The challenge is It's A Guy Thing! The design team is featuring Tim Holtz products. You don't have to use them, but if you have them, we would love to see what you do with them! I decided to pull out the Tim Holtz Watercolor Paper to create a fun background on this one.



I absolutely LOVE this die from My Favorite Things! I combined it with a fun sentiment from Simon Says Stamp for a simple masculine card. Yup. You can watercolor on guy cards. I promise. LOL!



And now it's your turn! Create something inspired by the It's a Guy Thing theme and link it up over on the Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog! One lucky participant will win a $50 Gift Voucher to the Simon Says Stamp store! Woot! Woot!!!

Supplies:
Watercolor Paper: Tim Holtz
Stamps: Simon Says Stamp Sending and Wishing
Friend Die: My Favorite Things
Watercolor Paints: Zig Kuretake Gansai Tambi 
White Pen: Uniball Signo

All that Glitters

***Don't forget that I have Giveaways Monday through Friday this week so check posts for those!***

It's time for this months Use your Stash Design Team reveal! The challenge this month is an easy one for lots of you, so I hope you will jump in and try to win the great prize! All you have to do is pull out your GLITTER! Glitter is a good thing! A very good thing! I love it! I even love when I finish a project and I'm covered with it! LOL! I'm kinda like a little girl in that respect!

Here is the layout that I created for this challenge and I hope that you are inspired enough to jump in this month! It's easy! Just create a layout using Glitter and post it to Mr. Linky over at This Post!



I apologize for the horrendous photograph. This one gave me fits! Lots of black with a big flash of candle light in the middle will do that to you! LOL! Oh, and the very lovely reflective glitter helped a lot, too! LOL!

To create the glittered line border beneath the photo I simply used a ruler with my Sakura Glue Pen and drew a few lines and sprinkled Pink Paislee Pixie Sticks glitter over them. Then I drew a few more glue lines and did the same in another color until I had three colors! I love the way it came out and it really wasn't hard at all! Then, I added a glitter border to my American Crafts Thickers by outlining them with the glue pen and sprinkling glitter on those, as well.

Here are some close up photos for you!









Here are the supplies I used for this layout:
Patterned Papers: BoBunny, Basic Grey, My Mind's Eye, American Crafts, Sassafrass Lass
Glitter: Pink Paislee
