To start at the beginning of the hop or if you encounter a broken link go to the Simon Says Stamp blog here.

This box … The Materpieces Box … is full of amazing new product from many different companies. You can receive these products before the brand’s release!! Woo Hoo!! You will find lots of more info on the Simon Blog. I love how so many different companies came together with Simon to curate this box of beautiful goodies but, a little more on that below in my post.

I used a stamp set from Simon Says Stamp (see it in the photo next to the yellow ink) and Tim Holtz/Stamper’s Anonymous to create two of my cards. For day’s when I was laying in bed my last thoughts were the dang Crazy Dog stamps! LOVE them!

Distress inks were to used to watercolor all my cards today. I also did a lot of masking but, I love to see the masking images transform into a little scene ! 🙂

Today’s video is alittle long but, I didn’t want to cut anything out during my watercoloring.(Usually mine are a lot shorter)  If you want to  subscribe  to my channel that would be so lovely.

I cut the middle out of the sentiment except for the word “OH” and masked the rest off. Two of the flowers were painted and popped on my card for added dimension.

Love combining stamp companies. This is with the Tim Holtz crazy dogs again and Altenew’s flower stamp set.

Here is another card I painted on the fly and finished adding some details at the airport and the rest early this am…like paper and sequins. These flowers are from the Altenew stamp set in the box plus I added one flower from Simon’s stamp set.

I think it’s so fun to receive so many wonderful stamp sets from different companies in one box! This box is a limited time offer…once it’s gone, it’s gone. It’s a pretty cool idea getting all of these awesome stamps in one bundle before they are released. In the box as you can see is a wide variety of stamps and some dies. If there is one that you aren’t keen on … think holiday gift or Birthday gift.

GIVEAWAY!!! Each stop in the hop will be giving away a $25 gift certificate!! Wow!! All you need to do to quality to win is comment….the more blogs you comment on the more chances you have to win!! Lots of chances for sure…. like TWENTY TWO … Winners will be announced Monday on the Simon blog. Good Luck 🙂

Your floral card is so pretty with your beautiful design and wonderful colouring!

The Simon box collection looks fabulous! Lots of variety and options! I’m still going strong with my colouring: 12/12! Yay! Thanks for the daily inspiration – it helps keep me going! I keep hearing you say, “just 5 minutes,” and that gets me started – and of course I’m always at it longer than that because I enjoy myself! Hope you have a wonderful weekend!

  160. Rita C Jackson says

    I’m definitely a cat person but if I had a dog, he’s the kind I would want. Stepping in some flowers is something I would do so I can relate.

    Kathy, thanks for sharing your cards! Luv the bright colors that you used.

  168. Sarah says

  193. Deb jennings says

    I love how you used both Oh Happy Day and Crazy dogs together. It looks like they were made for each other. Very clever. I also loved watching you paint. It is hard to believe that you are just a beginner at watercolours or anything for that matter. Your inspirational video has made me want to try water colouring in depth. Of course those fantastic stamps are so enticing. Thank you for sharing

  194. Ann K says

    Your coloring is outstanding – I love the flowers and dogs and you showcased both stamp sets so well. Love it all.

  219. kReN@afourthlife says

    I love how you combined the flower images with the crazy dog images. But when the flowers were by themselves, they were wonderful too. Enjoyed the bright and bold colors. TFS!

  223. Cath Sheard says

    Wow!! I love the way you’ve coloured the card. I can’t wait to get my Cazy Dog set.

    Kathy your watercoloring is amazing! I picked up some fine bristle brushes today after seeing your video and hope to get some practice in this weekend!

  238. Cayenne says

    I have stayed away from watercolor because people tend to use it to create faded, pastel looks. The vibrancy of your dogs really makes me realize that water color is not for that look alone! Thank you for sharing.

  242. Denise Fonda says

    Dogs and flowers go great together. Love the look on the dogs face in your video. For someone who is new to watercoloring, you did a terrific job!

  322. Daria says

    Incredible coloring. Thank you for the video. Watching you work your way through that one piece was an eye-opener. I don’t begin to spend that much time on my watercolors, and I’m a bit intimidated by color. However, I am blown away by the depth of color and the wonderful shading that you do layer by layer.

  324. DenaAnn Schaufele says

    Wonderful how you combined some of the new stamps on your little doggie card. I am always in awe of your colouring! Love it!

  352. Karen Alexander says

    Love these Crazy Dogs and this particular one has such a good expression on his face and adorable. I believe the Oh came from the Simon Says Stamps called, “Oh Happy Day!” set. Loved it!

  353. Carolyn Roberds says

    WOW, wow, wee, that would be great for me. OK for real, favorite is the W Plus 9 Whimsy Alpha (letters and then outside stamping of letters) is so cool but also love the Simon Says Oh Happy Day stamp set, I absolutely have to have these two items.

  360. Daria Z. says

    Combining the Crazy Dogs with the flowers is genius, Kathy! I especially love the first one.

  363. Rita Allen says

  364. Loly Borda says

    I think it’s genius to mix the dog with the flowers, such a fabulous card! TFS

  370. Carla says

    I like all your cards, Kathy!!!! I’m just loving how you combined the flower stamps and sentiment with the dog. Why am I hearing Tim the Toolman Taylor’s sound that he made that reminded me of Scooby Doo? TFS! PS. I love #thedailymarker30day challenge.

  373. Susan says

    Gorgeous coloring. I can’t wait to spend more time watching your video. Thanks for sharing.

    Those crazy dogs look really cute surrounded by flowers! Beautiful coloring. I like the white highlights and sequins and that cool background on the last flower card.

    The two dog cards are hilarious! Your watercoloring is stunning! I love all of them!

  393. Kate B says

    Your cards are fantastic! I loved watching the video and seeing how you created the colors and depth. Thanks for sharing & for heading up such a fun coloring challenge! (I actually made 2 cards inspired by your doodle card – it was so fun & relaxing!)

    Your first card is like the cutest card EVER. Made me smile. Made me giggle.

    The more I see the contents of this box of goodies the more I like it. I really like your use of the dog in amongst the flowers! Good since of humor. I would enjoy playing with all of these goodies.

    I’m guessing I didn’t comment on this post and I thought I did. I think I am spacing out and I am so excited to win something, anything! Your cards are so cute! I like the dogs and I like how you used stamps from other sets for the set you used. I don’t always do that and maybe I should. Everything is so colorful and I love the flowers! Thanks for showing us what you did.
    Right now I am not in a good mood because I have to have surgery on my foot! I will be laid up for 6 weeks! I don’t want to be laid up for 6 weeks! Please pray for me! I sure need it! I hope I win something!
