Hi friends! July is already here and the sun is shining.

This week we have a Red, White, and/or Blue theme at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog. I hope you will join us. Since it is the first Monday of a new month, the team is showcasing products from a specific designer/company and this week it is Paper Rose. You can see their wonderful range of products here. You don't have to use Paper Rose products to join, but it is always fun if you do. 

We also have a new guest designer and during July Rox aka Red Dirt Crafter will be our Designer Spotlight. Don't miss visiting her Instagram page to see what she has created.

I made a red, white and blue background directly on kraft cardstock and embellished the card with a dimensional pansy flower die cut with Paper Rose Etched Pansy 1 set

Start by applying white Distress Paint through the Simon Says Stamp Mix and Match Circles Stencil with a mini round ink-blending tool. Let dry and apply a second layer.

Continue with Distress Oxide Ink, off-setting the stencil slightly. I applied the ink with blending brushes.

Smear Distress Inks on a non-stick craft sheet, mist with water and press the paper into the ink. This is a very quick way of coloring. Let dry, and repeat for darker colors.

When dry, add a darker shade with a blue colored pencil. I used Prismacolors.

Stamp a label on white paper with Simon Says Stamp Mixed Labels and Marine ink. Die cut with the coordinating Mixed Labels set

The circles get a textured look from applying Distress Oxide Ink on top of the white paint. I also drew a border around the card with a white gel pen.

Stamp a sentiment from Mixed Labels with Royal ink. Assemble the flower and add Starshine Glitter  Stickles to the center.
