Thinking of You

 


 Hello Monday, my friends! And welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge. Thank you for joining us for the  Stencil It  Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.

Please join me in welcoming our guest designer for November, Teresa York! Welcome Teresa, we look forward to having you join us this month!  

Since it is the beginning of the month, we are spotlighting the Professor of Craft - Tim Holtz, and all his amazing array of products! If you have them, we would love to see them in your makes this week!

 

This week the challenge is: THINKING OF YOU


It all begins with some ink smooshing...a mix of yellow, pink and orange. I know, it's more spring like than fall, but this was what I was in the mood for.

I decided to add in some subtle stenciling...


Detail... 

Next, I collaged in a bit of tissue paper... 


I stamped and watercolored the flowers, then fussy cut them out.  


I tucked in a Thinking Of You and a hand dyed ribbon. 



I let some of the flower area extend over the background for interest. I glues some flowers down and popped up others. 


 Spring colors on my November card....maybe I am trying to totally ignore the upcoming winter, LOL!

Here's a bouquet of flowers for you.
