Simon Says...Transport It

Hi Everyone...welcome to another week on the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog...thank you for joining us for last week's challenge...we hope you can join us this week too because...

and the theme for this week is...

TRANSPORT IT

I trimmed paper from Tim Holtz Idea-ology Dapper Stash Paper to be slightly smaller than the Dina Wakley 9" x 12" Media Board and fixed in place with Distress Collage Medium Matte. I then gave the board a light wash of White Gesso.

and fixed a panel of contrasting paper in the centre.

I stamped the image from Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Dapper with Ground Espresso Archival ink

and Vintage Auto on to a tag from Idea-ology Expedition Ephemera

I created layers of Expedition Ephemera, added an Idea-ology Journey Flashcard and created shadows with a Black Soot Distress Crayon.

I used Tim Holtz/Sizzix Alphanumeric Thinlits to die cut the word Travel from Idea-ology Textured Surfaces

I applied Ranger Opague Texture Paste through the Screwed and Arrows Layering Stencils

and die cut lots of gears from scraps of Distress Watercolor card using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Gearhead Thinlits, colouring some with Walnut Stain Distress Oxide and Ground Espresso Distress ink, leaving some white with only inked edges.

I added Dapper and Passport Design Tape, Yuletide Fasteners to tie in with the red on the design tape and postage stamp Ephemera and added the left over circle waste from the gears, outlined with a Sharpie Fine Black pen.

an Idea-ology Paper Doll, lightly sanded to create a distressed look

an Idea-ology Quote Token coloured with Picket Fence Distress Crayon, threaded with twine and fixed in place with Tim Holtz/Sizzix Black 3D foam to look as though it's hanging from his hand and an Idea-ology Quote Chip coloured with Walnut Stain Distress Oxide ink.
