Simon Says - Things With Wheels

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

and the theme for this week is...

THINGS WITH WHEELS

I created a travel scene in my Dina Wakely 6" x 6" White Media Journal using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Road Trip Colorize, Stampers Anonymous Mini Layering Stencils from Set 28 and 29 with a sentiment I'm sure we can all relate to using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Alphanumeric Bold and Tiny Type Lower and Upper Thinlits.

I began by spritzing Stormy Sky Distress Oxide Spray on to the pages, spritzed with water, moved it around with a brush to create a light wash and dried. I applied Saltwater Taffy and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide inks through the Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Mosaic and Cargo Mini Layering Stencils from Sets 28 and 29 using mini round blending tools and added a dashed border with a black fine liner pen.

I fixed Sizzix Adhesive Sheets to the back of Distress Watercolor card and die-cut using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Road Trip Colorize Thinlits.

I die-cut the first 3 layers for the car from Idea-ology Classic KraftStock and then coloured the rest of the die-cut pieces using Saltwater Taffy, Lost Shadow, Frayed Burlap and Salvaged Patina Distress Oxide inks.

I fixed Sizzix Adhesive Sheets to Idea-ology Black KraftStock, die-cut the title for the page using Tim Holtz/Sizzix Alphanumeric Bold and Tiny Type Lower and Upper Thinlits and fixed in place.  The benefit of using the Adhesive Sheets is that you can lay the letters out, move them around until you are happy with the placement before you remove the carrier sheet and commit to fixing them down .

I fixed the trees in place and added Idea-ology Specimen Remnant Rubs.

I die-cut extra packages using the Road Trip Colorize Thinlits and the lady driver using Christmastime Thinlits, fixed inside the car and added the car and packages to the page popped up on Foam Squares.

To finish I added clouds on the background using the base layer of the exhaust die from Road Trip Colorize and splatters of White Gesso.
