Hoppity Hop, Please Make Sure You Stop –It’s a A FAB Giveaway :)

Hi there lovely peeps and we have something very different and very special for you today over at the Simon Says Stamp challenge because it’s time for …
……. woohoooo ;))))
So welcome one and all and please come and celebrate with us.
Here’s what it’s all about -
Simon Says Stamp was founded in 2002 with an interest in exclusively selling rubber stamps. It didn’t take long until we realized we couldn’t stop there. Over the past 10 years we celebrate rubber stamping in its full glory by giving access to people around the world to a one stop shop. Rubber stamps still remain the heart of our business and we are celebrating by hosting a STAMPtember ™ event intended to inspire, educate, and celebrate the greatness of rubber stamping. Part of the enticement of rubber stamping is that stamps can be used in creating or complementing ANYTHING! From stamping dates on bank documents and postage parcels in the early 18th century, rubber stamping has dramatically expanded to include card making,scrapbooking, mixed media and many forms of altering and expressing art.
So we are celebrating with a
STAMP-TEMBER BLOG HOP !!
But of course, it’s also a challenge and this week we are asking you to
Put a STAMP On It
So you must use a stamp somewhere on your cards/creations and  NO DIGI'S allowed this week :-))
One lucky winner this week will get our
GRAND PRIZE of $100 Simon Shopping Spree!
Is that a prize or it that a PRIZE!!!!
But that’s not all because we all have a special giveaway of …
... to spend in the shop too,  so lots of winners this week (ooohhhh we do LIKE that!!!)
In order to be eligible for any of the prizes you must complete the hop, leaving comments at all the blogs along the way AND enter the challenge ! :-) We will announce the winners as soon as possible after the hop finishes at 8am EST on Wednesday 12th September.
This week we are showcasing Washi Tape . You don't have to use it to join in but if you have some we would love to see it on your creations :-)
So ..
Picture 001 copy
.. this is what I did.
The sharp eyes amongst you will notice that there isn’t any washi tape on my card and there is a very simple explanation for that!! Some dope didn't read the challenge properly (cannot think who that would be!!). But my other teamies with more brain cells and better eye sight than me did,  so there’s lots to see on their beautiful cards.
Picture 006 copy
I used Water Can Tilda and coloured her with these Copics -
Skin – E0000, E000, E00, E11, E13 R00, R02
Hair – E31, E34, E35, E39, E50
The rest – B0000, B000. B00, B05, B93, C00, C1, C4, C5, R05, R17, R27, R59
 Picture 004 copy
The papers are from a Bazzill AVALON 6 x 6 Paper Multi-Pack and I made some rolled flowers and added a few leaves made with a Magnolia leaf and swirl die – I used the leaf bit for a change and gave the swirl a day off for good behaviour!!
 Picture 005 copy
My old faithful friend, SAFMAT Self-Adhesive Printing Film - what would I do without it!!!
 Picture 002 copy
 Picture 003 copy
So that’s my card done and here’s a collage of sneak peeks for you from the rest of the DT …
… and doesn't it look fab :)
But whose is who?????
I’m sure you will be able to see as you go about the hop today so I’ll get back to the business in hand now lol!!
If you arrived here from CHEIRON’s blog then you are in the right place  but if you didn't, then you will need to go to the Simon Says Stamp Blog where the hop starts :-) In case you get lost along the way, here’s the blog hop order and just to remind you that you have until Wed 12th September 8am Ohio time. 1pm UK time, 2 pm CET to join in :-)
If while hopping you encounter a broken link, you can go back to the beginning with links to everyone who is participating in the hop.
So that’s it from me and thank you so much for visiting!
Before you go, don't forget to leave me a comment and also your name with Mr Linky and then it’s time for the next stop in the Simon Says STAMPtember ™ Blog Hop, which  is the very lovely and oh so talented Debby.
Have fun and good luck to everyone who enters and huggiest of hugs to all xxx
