Hello stampers! I hope you are enjoying summer, or winter if you are in the southern hemisphere. It is Monday and we are back with a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge.

This week our theme is Transport It at the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge Blog. I hope you will join us and don't miss the gorgeous project by our July guest designer Natasha Vacca aka Natasha's Colorful Creations.

I went on an imaginary voyage. It has a vintage transportation theme in the form a train and a beautiful ship. The images were colored with pencils and the stamps come from Tim Holtz Travel Ways set. It is an older set and one of my favorites.

Start by stamping the train and the ship with Archival Jet Black on a tag. Ink with Antique Linen.

Color the stamped images with colored pencils. I used Prismacolor. I added bits of red and blue to both the train and the ship. Use the white pencil on the smoke, the sea foam and other areas which you want to keep light-colored.

Ink with Distress Ink. The pencil marks will resist the ink.

The large ticket stamp comes from Tim Holtz Artful Voyage.The sentiment was stamped with Simon Says Stamp Pawsitively Saturated Royal ink.

I also added three strips of Design Tape Trims.

The two small tickets were stamped with a stamp from Travel Ways on Tim's Backdrops Vol. 4 paper, inked and attached with a paper clip.

I really like this ship stamp and it was fun to use it again. There is also a larger version of it in the Artful Voyage set.

I also added a Game Spinner since the arrow shape works well with the voyage theme.

This beautiful steam train has such great details and it is fun to color.
