Simon Says Monday Challenge: Favourite Tool










Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge

This week we are challenging you to

Use Your Favorite Tool  

What is YOUR favorite crafting tool? Is it a Paper Distresser, a Fuse Tool, a Heat Tool, Die Cutting Machine? We would love to know what is your 'go to' tool!
As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

Nicola is our fabulous Designer In The Spotlight! Please pop by to see her fabulous project and  leave her a lovely comment :-)

My favourite tool is my Big Shot Plus, it is my 'go to' tool for almost every project. With so many fabulous dies available and having stamps and coordinating die sets it makes creating projects so much easier than having to cut them out with scissors. 


I used a Tim Holtz Crazy Dogs and Framelits Die Set to make a masculine birthday card and a Mini Crazy Dogs and Cats Set to make a coordinating tag. Aren't they cute :-)

For the background I blended Pumice Stone and Cracked Pistachio over some watercolour paper and then used a Paper Artsy Eclectica Stencil and Mother Of Pearl Mousse to add some shimmer and texture. I then splattered with Marble Black, Lime Green and Tumbled Glass sprays


I also used a Tim Holtz Mixed Media 3 Die for the brick wall, using Pumice Stone and Fired Brick Distress Inks 



Thanks for looking! 

So now it's YOUR turn to get creating!
