The arches were made using Spellbinders Essential Arches Etched Dies <\/a>with Neenah 110 lb White cards<\/a>, while the Color Block Accent Arches Etched Dies<\/a> were used to cut into the alcohol ink background for added dimension. She used a Tim Holtz Runway Bride<\/a>, stamped with Versamark ink and heat embossed using Gold Embossing Powder<\/a>. She used a Tim Holtz Handwritten Celebrate Die<\/a> to finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barbara<\/a> was inspired by the Sizzix The Park Thinlits Dies<\/a> and Tim Holtz’s Floral stencil.<\/a> For the background, she chose a palette of Ranger Ink Distress Mini Ink pads<\/a> in very soft colors.

Cheiron<\/a> created an anniversary card to celebrate friendship. She created a painted panel using Evergreen Bough<\/a>, Festive Berries<\/a> and Blueprint Sketch Distress Paints. She dried her panel and embossed it with the Simon Says Stamp Mid Century Ethereal<\/a> Embossing Folder and then swiped over it with Simon White<\/a> Pigment Ink. To finish her card, she added a heart die cut and a cut out sentiment from the CZ Design Good Greetings 1<\/a> set. https:\/\/createwithcheiron.com\/simon-says-stamp-monday-challenge-wedding-anniversary\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
