I Can Smell Candyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy, Woohoooo :)

Hi lovely peeps and hope you are all OK.  There’s lots going on here today fo’ sho’!!!!

As promised yesterday today is a vey special day because for the second year in a row, Simon Says Stamp and Show & The Simon Says Stamp Challenge are joining forces to bring you a SUPER hop and treasure hunt to celebrate the approaching fall and winter holidays.

To help celebrate we will be giving this mahoosive basket of crafty goodies  to the winner of this hop …

If that wasn’t amazing enough, there are 3 fab extra prizes along the way for you to find :)

Yes 3 lucky girlies will each win a $25 voucher to spend in the Simon Says Stamp Store ! The vouchers will be the hidden treasure on 3 DT blogs and you have to find them.

The Blog hop will finish on September 5th at 12 MN Ohio time (Sept 6th, 6 am CET, 5 am UK time) at on the Simon Says Stamp & Show Blog.

The theme for both challenges this week will be

ANYTHING GOES.

You can make anything you like … a card, an ATC, a Scrapbook layout, whatever floats your boat, so just enjoy yourselves and get creating :)

You will need to hop through each blog, find the little parcel of goodies and make a note on which designer’s blog you found them. You do not HAVE to comment on all the DT blogs but we would appreciate any comments you would like to leave. If you lose your way at any time a full list of all the participating blogs with links will be available on Simon Says Stamp Challenge and the Stamp and Show Challenge blogs and all the details can be found on both sites.

So if you arrived here from the super talented Lynne Forsythe’s blog,  then you are going in the right direction otherwise you need to start at the beginning on the Simon Says Stamp Challenge.

This week the DT are showcasing Cuttlebug embossing folders. You don’t HAVE to use them but if you have them, why not get them out ! :-)

Ooooeerrr, what was that I just saw :) Make a note me darlins  xxx

But before you nip off, pleeeze let me share me card ….

This is an older Tilda but I still love her – she’s a bit on the funky side I reckon, and as always I gave her the Copics treatment plus a dust down with the polychromos.

These are the Copics I used ..

E000, E00, E21, R11, R20 (skin), E41, E42, E50 (hair), B0000, B00, B02, C00, C1,, C3, C5, YG000, YG01. YG03 (the rest)

The papers are Prima Flowers  Jack And Jill 6x6 paper pad :)

I Cuttlebugged the large flower and blinged it up – you can maybe just see it if you squint hard enough!!!

I also did the same to the little border and then went over the dots with me Copic pen, cos clearly I have too much time on my hands!!!!

OK so that’s enough from me cos I;m sure you want to get on with the hoppity hop now :)

From here you need to go to the super talented Chris’s  blog for more inspiration, and don’t forget to keep a look out for the treasure  :-)  You don’t have to but if you want to leave a comment, it would be FAB :)

The last stop on the hop is the Simon Says Stamp and Show Challenge blog. You will need to leave a comment there with the names of the 3 blogs with treasure chest pictures. The comments will be moderated so you will not be able to see the answers.

Enjoy the rest of the hop and have a great day.

Hugs to all xxx
