Anything Goes

 Anything goes! Yep that's what they said at Simon Says Stamp and Show. So this is my anything!

I put together a Western Shadow box of my Great Nephew. I used some of tim's products, which include

Distress inks, number plate (plaquettes), hanging sign die cut, swivel clasps and last but not least his paper. The piece of wood, barbed wire, rusty nails all gifts of the earth around these parts. Oh and grungepaper and some distress embossing powder (tims).

 It is kind of hard to take a picture of glass.
                            (just my opinion)

                                                OUCH!

 This is hard to bend! Let me tell you, I scratched my hand a bit......even a little blood! But none got on the paper! That's what counts!

Hop on over and follow the blog at Simon Says Stamp and Show, they call it Stamp-tember Blog Hop. You will like what you see!

Hope you enjoyed my play of the Wild Wild West!

Challenge-Torn or Distressed

I think I am getting into these challenges. Last week was the first time I had ever done a challenge, I kinda liked it. So now I am back again doing another!

This one is for Simon Says Stamp and Show.

They wanted torn or distressed, I have given them both!

I have used tim's papers and his stamp and his inks and his memo holder, brads, hammer, alterations die, metal corner, and last his distresser. Ha it would have been easier to say what was not his. (ribbon, pearls) (oh and tape) LOL!

Even sitting on filmstrip from tim.

3 brads hammered for extra texture.

You should join in this challenge they have a Simon Says Stamp gift certificate up for 1 lucky winner!

Hope you enjoyed my torn and distressed card.
