Simon Says "Give Thanks"

Good afternoon to you.

The weather is glorious here, beautiful blue skies and sunshine.

The current challenge at Simon Says is "Give Thanks".


Again, I have used my beautiful new Hero Arts "Dogwood" stamp. As this stamp came from the Simon Says store, I thought it would be a good one to use for the challenge!!

Thank you for visiting.

Hi Clare,
Just thought I would see what's cooking in blogland tonight and wow...I had to leave a comment

I love this card...The stamp is gorgeous for a start and the way you embossed and layed the sentiment is fantastic...I think most of us forget our dies do more than just cut....

Hope all is good with you and the family, I have some news to share but it can wait till I finish my next card...I am so excited, though a bit nervous...It's nothing to do with crafting, it's some good new's about my Son's future job I can't keep to myself, I am so proud, cloud nine's not the word...lol

Anyway I digressed sorry, I adore this card, I must make a note of the stamp it's lovely, I am hoping to go to the NEC next month, not sure if Hero Art's have a stand of their own but I bet someone will have them, so if they do, it's coming home with me...lol

Hope your warm where you are, it's been freezing today, I think we will have to crank the log burner up this weekend, I just pray we don't have the hastle we had last year....Cleaning the flu on christmas day is a no,no for me this year....lol

Catch you later pal, take care

So sorry I've been such a poor blogger lately, Clare. I've just been having a catch up with what I've been missing. This dogwood stamp is gorgeous and I love all the different ways you've been using it. It makes a stunning card.
Hope all is good with you and yours.

Hi Clare

Extremely elegant card, super use of Dogwood.

I so love how people get such different results from the same image and everyone can stamp (excuse the pun) their own mark on them.
