This week Simon Says Stamp and Show are asking for a favourite stamp. Well as I've only just got the Papillon Tim Holtz plate and the Dina Wakely Lonely Girl these are for the moment, my favourite stamps. I really like the Tim Holtz plate as it's so versatile and combines well with almost anything.
I created the background by using 4 different shades of green pan pastels. All the images are stamped in timber brown distress stain and the butterflies were over stamped with picket fence distress stain. The tag was edged in walnut stain distress stain. The ribbon started off as a piece of white material. I ripped a strip off and coloured it with crushed olive distress stain.
So not only my favourite stamps of the moment, but in my favourite colour scheme too.

Your tag is beautiful! I totally love Tim's Papillon stamp set, too. You're right...it is so versatile. I also really like your Dina Wakely stamp. I'll have to check that out. Your tag has a beautiful background and I really like your design. Thanks for joining us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy

This is fabulous Sam, I love your combination of stamps x
Love both these stamps and what you have with this tag. Just love the soft effect you have got from the pan pastels, (yet another thing on my wish list).
...super Tag Sam, gorgeous inky work & adore your colours...Mel :)
Fabulous tag, Sam. I love the TH stamps too and the DW stamps are on my wishlist. I'm resisting the Pan Pastels - my craft room is already over stuffed!
Very subtle and elegant - and green :-)
Lovely tag Sam and I really want that Papillon set - think I might just have to have another splurge. You are encouraging me to spend a lot these days!
Hugs, Neet xx
Fab tag. Love the pastels. The papillon stamp is one of my favs too. Great job showcasing 2 of your favorites. Thanks for sharing and have a great day. Angela
