Simon Says Stamp Challenge Cards

Hello!

Today's cards are for the Simon Says Stamp Monday and Wednesday challenges.  I really like doing these challenges because it gets me to play with my stuff!  :)  I hadn't played in a few days so it felt good to create!

This card is for the


where we are to create something with clouds. I struggled with this card for about an hour, cutting butterflies from my Cricut, almost trashing the entire card and forgetting about the challenge.  Then I just grabbed an old piece of basic grey patterned paper and the so cool Memory Box butterfly die and it worked.  :)



Here's a close up of the butterfly.  I just LOVE this die:







This next card is for the 


where we are to showcase Clearly Besotted and/or Lil Inker Designs products.  I used heart dies from Lil Inker Designs and a background stamp from Simon Says Stamp:



I also used silver pearl embossing powder and I LOVE the effect I got.  Then I colored the cardstock in red and the hearts were resisted. Very cool.




As always, thanks for visiting!  Be sure to follow for future cards!! :)
