Everybody Art Challenge..........A Stamp !!


I used a photograph from the 'Universal Soldier'
It is Low Manhattan Financial District, they have emblems of countries around the bas of the statue.
This statue blow me away - it as beautiful, I'm just sad it doesn't photo as well IRL!!

Our challenge this week at Everybody Art Challenge this week is.......

STAMP



I have decided it was time  I started using my distress inks again - I am so out of practise so I coloured the image - it's not brilliant. As I used one of the image I've used before I thought it would be easier but am not sure about that.
I have lost the track of time - I scheduled the card to publish at GMT but of course my Computer has reset itself to New York time.

Simon Says........Wrap It Up!!




Hi all and welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge
Thank you for joining us for the Color Inspiration Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.
We will be back soon with the name of the lucky winner of the $50 Voucher
This week the challenge is

WRAP IT UP

You can make a gift wrapping, a tag, a card with some ribbon or twine wrapped around it, or maybe you have another idea of your own! We are looking forward to seeing what you make!
We are showcasing MAY ARTS PRODUCTS this week. You don't have to use them to join in but if you have some we would love to see them used
As always Simon Says Stamp will be giving away $50 voucher to shop at the fabulous Simon Says Stamp Store

My showcasing this week is May Arts Silver Metallic String. I have been making Christmas cards that need a box and decided to embellish it with this challenge. Rather than just tie it with the twine I decided to add swirls and/or flourishes/ This wasn't the best idea - I usually used fine ribbon but I struggled swirling the mettalic string. 





So now it's YOUR turn.  Happy Crafting
