Simon Says Stamp has a special challenge on to share cards using their new character,  named Dexter.  Dexter is a pig and hangs out with his friend Simon who is the namesake of Simon Says Stamp and a dog.  Just suspend your disbelief and go with it.  In fact, after all the weird animal friendship videos that have been popping up on my Facebook, it really isn’t that hard to imagine a great friendship between a dog and a pig.  I have definitely seen stranger on You Tube, like a lion and a monkey (albeit after the lion ate the monkey’s mother for lunch……but I digress).

The great thing about this challenge is that Sandra and I both have the introductory stamp set called Dexter and Simon.  We decided to make it a challenge within a challenge and thus the title of this post………..Dueling Cards.

I have to post this in two posts so that I can link both the cards to the SSS challenge, so make sure to have a peek at both posts.

Supplies:  Simon Says Stamp Dexter and Simon, SEI patterned paper, Stampin Up and Neenah card stock, Stampendous embossing powder, Versamark, Memento and Tim Holtz Distress inks, Copic markers, and unknown ribbon.
