Anything Goes at Basic Grey Challenges (using Basic Grey stash of course!)


Hi all  - it's time for a new challenge at Basic Grey Challenges and this fortnight we have a great Anything Goes theme.  I've used one of Saturated Canaries new fairy images, Sweater Socks Fairy - so love these!
My papers are a mix of Basic Grey Lauderdale and PB&J 6x6 papers and of course coloured with my usual Promarkers.

The frame is cut with a Spellbinders die set, with a Marianne Die used for the Poinsettia and a Cheery Lyn die used for the Holly leaf flourish. The sentiment is from Lili of the Valley and then I've used lots of Frantage Chunky White embossing powder for the snow effect.
My teamies over on BG have made some wonderful cards to share with you - check them out here.

As always, our wonderful sponsor, Simon Says Stamp is offering one lucky winner a fab $25 shopping spree in the Simon Says Superstore

(Please note: This is a voucher code that entitles the winner to a $25 saving off their order in Simon Says Stamp, P+P charges will still apply unless the conditions are met to earn free P+P, please check here if you would like to see these conditions)

I'm at the end of my fortnight's holiday and have got up early to wait for a builder to come and give us a quote on our chimney stacks, and he's not turned up!  Grrrr!

Enjoy your weekend, whatever you're doing!
