Hi all and welcome to another week on the\u00a0Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge<\/a><\/p>\n

Thank you for joining us for the New Something Challenge and we hope you will all join us again this week too.<\/p>\n

This week we would like you to recycle something! Maybe use some ribbon or twine from a gift you received or decorate a carton or jar, there is so much ‘rubbish’ that we can alter into something beautiful and help to save the planet at the same time!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Andrea<\/a>\u00a0was about to toss her 2018 mini wall calendar, but collaged over it instead.\u00a0 She used some classic Tim Holtz products such as paper dolls<\/a> and the lowercase cutout alphabet<\/a>, along with a Color Wheel<\/a> background stamp from Inky Antics.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Anna-Karin<\/a>\u00a0made a tag using almost only recycled materials, and some bits and pieces found on her desk. The hearts were die cut with Simon Says Stamp Windows to my Heart die<\/a>, and the title comes from the Big Happy set<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

<\/a>Barbara<\/a> has created a perpetual calendar recycling scrap of paper and some packages by Tim Holtz Idea-ology. She used Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Inventor 1<\/a>, Tim Holtz Layering stencil Plus<\/a> , Tim Holtz Sizzix Gadget Gear<\/a>, Idea-ology Paper Dolls<\/a> and Ranger\u00a0 Perfect Pearls<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Cheiron<\/a> used a colorful page from one of her magazines in the recycling pile and turned it into into sparkly patterned cardstock. She cut a rectangle out of manila cardstock with with a Simon Says Stamp Stitched Rectangle<\/a> die and then applied\u00a0Distress Collage Medium<\/a>\u00a0and sprayed it with the Stampers Anonymous Glitter Duster<\/a> to make it sparkle. She added a sentiment using the Simon Says Stamp You’re Doing Awesome<\/a> die.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Emma<\/a>\u00a0had plenty of cardboard boxes that needed to be recycled and put them to good use by using a piece as a background on her canvas panel<\/a>. She added some rips and tears to the cardboard before applying Floral Collage Paper<\/a> over the top and adding a the stamped Entomology<\/a> image, sitting on top of some recycled twigs and showcased in a Vignette Frame<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Kath<\/a>\u00a0recycled some corrugated packaging from a Christmas delivery to cover an Eileen Hull Wrapped Journal<\/a> and\u00a0decorated the cover with Tim Holtz Idea-ology Ephemera<\/a>, Sizzix Tattered Poinsettia<\/a> and Simon Says Stamp Outline Clustered Leaves<\/a> dies.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Lols <\/a>used some packaging card and leftover pages from school exercise books to create a notebook. She used a Visible Image Ahead Of Our Times Stamp Set<\/a>\u00a0for the focus and a Tim Holtz Grid Cling Stamp<\/a> and a Mini Stencil Set 5<\/a> for the background.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Macarena<\/a>\u00a0recycled clothes’ labels and made a set of notes and a card using Tonic Misted Mauve Nuvo Expanding Mousse<\/a> and a lot of Tim Holtz Ground Espresso Distress Spray<\/a> with some touches of Ranger Bone Mixed Media Powder<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Maura<\/a>\u00a0up cycled a tamale bag using Inky Antics The Queen’s Quips<\/a>\u00a0and Circle Stems <\/a>stamp sets, along with AALL and Create’s Lotza Dots<\/a> stencil.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using the recycled bubble wrap, book page, wire and cardboard, and decorated it with\u00a0<\/span>Tim Holtz Rubber Stamp Opportunities<\/a>\u00a0and <\/span>Idea-Ology Quotation Metallic Stickers<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Sandra <\/a>made another spread in her art journal using an old stamp set packaging, she also added the Simon Says Stamp Deco Diamonds stamp<\/a>, Clear Gesso<\/a>, Nuvo Shimmer Powders<\/a> and Texture Paste<\/a> to her page.
\n\"\"<\/p>\n

Zoey<\/a>\u00a0used cardboard to add texture to this tag. She also used Tim Holtz Tissue Paper<\/a> and Tissue Tap<\/a>e and some distress paint<\/a><\/p>\n
