Simon Says - Think Pink

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

The first challenge of the month is when the team showcase one particular company/brand and this week we are all using the fabulous products from Dylusions. You don't have to use Dylusions products to take part in the challenge but we would love to see what you make with them, if you have them in your stash.

We are also welcoming the lovely and talented Alison Bomber back again as our Designer In The Spotlight and why don't you pop over to her BLOG, you will be in for a real treat.

The theme for this week is...

THINK PINK

In support of October being Breast Cancer Awareness month, I created a page in my Dylusions Large Art Journal using Kitsch Flamingo Distress Paint/Distress Spray Stain, Dylusions Small Write Now Stencil, Tim Holtz Idea-ology Serendipity Collage Paper, Stampers Anonymous Faded Type and Sizzix Bold Text 2 Thinlits.

I brayered a light patchy coat of Kitsch Flamingo Distress Paint on to the Art Journal page and dried. I sprayed Kitsch Flamingo Distress Spray Stain through the Dylusions Small Write Now Stencil. I replaced the stencil over the sprayed sections, inked the stamp from Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous Faded Type with Versafine Clair Nocturne Ink and pressed the stamp on to the stencilled sections. I inked the numbers stamp from the same set with Rustic Wilderness Distress Oxide ink and stamped randomly on the page.

I traced around sections of Tim Holtz Idea-ology Serendipity Collage Paper with a Detailer Water Brush, teased apart and fixed to the page using Distress Collage Medium and Collage Brush.

I added splatters of Dina Wakley Black Gesso.

I outlined the stencilled section with a Black Liner Pen.

I die-cut the Tim Holtz/Sizzix Bold Text 2 Thinlits from Distress Black HeavyStock, trimmed to create a panel, fixed in place with Distress Collage Medium and added the drop-out "O" letters.
