Hi there! It's time for an all new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! Do you have stamps that are versatile? That can be used many ways? This week we challenge you to use a stamp multiple ways on the same project or use the same stamp in different colors or ways on multiple projects!
I was inspired to create a layout using 1 stamp, 3 ways:
The woodgrain stamp from Trust The Magic cling stamp set was the perfect versatile stamp for my outdoor themed layout featuring a photo of Connor that was taken more than 15 years ago:
I inked up the stamp with Vintage Photo Distress Ink then stamped my heart out on a piece of paper from the French Industrial Paper Stash collection. Once I was finished stamping, I put my newly stamped patterned paper to use in the following three ways: I pieced a patchwork background border:

Beautiful layout , Mona
Mona,
What a beautiful layout using your stamp 3 different ways - wonderful! The stitching is awesome - as is the picture of Connor - he is adorable! Thanks for sharing.
Wonderfully done pg. Like the picture of Connor. When I saw the clock face, I glanced back to his watch. All of the wood grain and doodled stitching is wonderful, as well as the die cuts and tattered floral flowers. Another FAB page, Mona! :)
That looks so cool. Love the way you created a patchwork background. I have sooooo many stamps and I need to use my stash instead of always buying more :/ Love the rustic colours and that is a cool pic.... Love this....that stitch stamp is one of my faves.

Such a lovely page Mona! The textures are wonderful.
Lots of depth and loveliness here (not that I'd expect anything else from you)! And what a great picture to highlight! It's fun that you've breathed new life into a photo taken so long ago. You always do justice to special moments in time!
What a beautiful layout and the woodgrain is lovely making a fantastic background to the photo. Love how your layout makes it look like a tree-house that he is peeking out of.
Impressive page, Mona! Love masculine feel and the amazing stitching!
