simon says stamp monday challenge: it’s a man thing

Hi crafty friends, welcome to this week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! Thank you for joining us us for last week's Make Your Own Background Challenge and we hope you will join us again this week for the It's A Man Thing Challenge. 

This week I created a fun tag featuring The Professor stamp as the focal point. I used a DIstress Mixed Media Heavystock tag and swiped it through a few layers of Speckled Egg Distress Oxide that I had sprayed with my Distress Sprayer. Then I used some Rusty Hinge DIstress Oxide through the Countdown stencil. I added a bit of Typeset Collage paper to one side of the tag using DIstress Collage Medium and a brush. 

Once that was done, I used the Stampers Anonymous Mini Glitch set and all my sets of Archival DIstress Inks (Set 1, Set 2 and Set 3) to stamp in different colors all over the background. I love the vibrant colors, and only wish there were more! Once all the stamping was done I inked the edges of the tag with Walnut Stain Distress Ink. 

I stamped, cut out and colored in The Professor with some Distress Markers, and added him to the tag. Once that was completed, I added a Quote Chip to finish the tag.
