Simon Says

Simon Says have a recipe for us this week.
3 TYPES OF EMBELLISHMENTS
2 PATTERNED PAPERS you can also use coordinating cardstock :-)
1 IMAGE
and if we have any Stampabilities stamps they would love to see us use them. They are also having a blog hop and just check out the prize on offer, the DT's also have individual candy.


I decided to do another easel card and I chose thie adorable Gruffie called 'Bedtime Story' coloured him with Copics and cut him out with a MS around the page punch. I slit through three of the holes, top and bottom and threaded the ribbon through. The two patterned dp papers are Kay&Co Classic K Bailey and the bc bazzill. My three types of embellishments are flowers, ribbon and brads and are all from my stash.



I also decided to make one of my envelope/boxes to match. I decorated lightly, I don't think HM & Friends call for much embellishment. I'm looking forward to doing  a Tilda and going mad with embellishments etc. on the envelobox.

I'm posting a tutorial (inc. measurements) for these on Sunday, so I'd better crack on and get it finished as I'm only about half way through - and if I don't get a move on you'll be getting it in installments, lol.
