Lately on my own blog I&#8217;ve been challenging myself to use what I&#8217;ve got and finding older supplies with new goodies as well. This week I decided to combine the challenge to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=125539&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">use a hanger<\/a> in my stash with the Big Stamp challenge here and I had a lot of nautical fun!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1364\" alt=\"078\" src=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/078.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"329\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/078.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/078-300x164.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Step 1: I used\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=107251&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">Gathered Twigs Distress Ink<\/a> and a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=50562&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">dot stamp <\/a>all over white cardstock. Set this aside &#8211; it will be used later.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1365\" alt=\"079\" src=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/079.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"324\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/079.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/079-300x162.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Step 2: I embossed various <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=133163&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">blueprint shell stamps<\/a> on white cardstock and embossed them with <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=134163&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">white powder<\/a>. Once dry, I used <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=123151&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">distress markers <\/a>to color just parts of the image.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1366\" alt=\"083\" src=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/083.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"289\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/083.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/083-300x144.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Step 3: Using a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=92733&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">water brush<\/a> I spread the water around. Love the water color look as well as how the white embossing makes things so lovely.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1367\" alt=\"085\" src=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/085.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"343\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/085.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/085-300x171.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Step 4: Tear the edges around the stamped image and edge with blending tool and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/search.aspx?Keywords=distress+ink+pad\" target=\"_blank\">coordinating ink color<\/a>. Repeat this three times to get the three stamped images.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1368\" alt=\"088\" src=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/088.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"287\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/088.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/088-300x143.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Step 5: Layer images onto the background you stamped in step one. Then use white paint and a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=75551&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">large text stamp<\/a> to stamp over the images lightly to add another dimension to the project.<\/p>\n<p><em>Tip: Another option (shown above)? Layer onto tag background or scraps gone wrong!<\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1369\" alt=\"091\" src=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/091.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"312\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/091.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/091-300x156.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Step 6: Apply <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/search.aspx?Keywords=tim+holtz+rub+ons\" target=\"_blank\">rub-ons <\/a>as desired.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1370\" alt=\"094\" src=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/094.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"286\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/094.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/094-300x143.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Step 7: Finish the project off by adding more accents such as <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=112189&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">letters<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/search.aspx?Keywords=stickles\" target=\"_blank\">stickles<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstamp.com\/product.aspx?id=125399&amp;c=0\" target=\"_blank\">ribbon<\/a> and more!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-1372\" alt=\"146\" src=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/146.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"568\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/146.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2014\/04\/146-300x284.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I hope that you&#8217;ve enjoyed my project today &#8211; and that you&#8217;re inspired to join this week&#8217;s challenge!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/simonsaysstamp.com\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-45\" alt=\"50dollar_voucher_600px\" src=\"http:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2013\/07\/50dollar_voucher_600px.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"215\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2013\/07\/50dollar_voucher_600px.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.simonsaysstampblog.com\/mondaychallenge\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2013\/07\/50dollar_voucher_600px-300x107.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hello everyone!
