Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Anything Goes

Hi everyone!  I can hardly believe this is the last Wednesday of the month already, which means my time as a guest designer for the SSS Wednesday Challenge is coming to a close!  I have certainly enjoyed playing along with the talented designers and want to thank Lorraine (aka Lols) again for inviting me!  It was an honor!

This week we have the theme - Anything Goes - which is always a popular week!  The team is showcasing products from Stampendous, so if you have them...we'd love to see you use them even though it's not mandatory.  

As always, Simon Says Stamp will be giving away a $50 voucher to shop at their fabulous store!  Be sure to play along for a chance to win.


So...here is my creation using the Ranunculus Field stamp by Stampendous...

After stamping with black ink, I clear embossed the image before coloring loosely with Mijello Mission Gold watercolor paints.  This sentiment is so fitting for our current state of sad affairs in the world.  The negative news can be very overwhelming at times, but I'm so thankful I can have peace with my faith and can at least spread some kindness in my corner of the world whenever possible!  I got off on a side path there for a minute, but wanted to add that the lovely sentiment is from Simon Says Stamp's Uplifting Thoughts set. 

The end of the month also signals an end to a wonderful month long party at Simon Says Stamp!  STAMPtember had so many new products and wonderful inspiration along the way and there's still time to check it all out and get an order in.
