TRY IT ON TUESDAY DONE SMEARED INK STYLE.

I wanted so much to get something done for my DT spot at TRY IT ON TUESDAY but i didnt get it finished, so i have teamed it with todays SMEARED INK dt post.
Try it on tuesday has CHOCOLATE as the new challenge....so i used shades of brown, creamy vanilla and a minty green.
The victorian ladies and gents are SMEARED INK http://smudgyantics.blogspot.com/ SMITTEN digi stamps. This wall-art piece is made up of 16x 2 &1/2inch squares..... 3 of the squares are fabric covered, the other 13 are all stamped and decorated. I used loads of stamps but they are mainly from DESTEMPELWINKEL.

I have used ink, acrylic paint, alcohol ink and promarkers.

The ladies and gents are coloured with promarkers.

There is lace....lots of it.....gems, pearls,ribbon, brads, broken jewelry, bits and bobs i had laying around....i hate to waste anything.

I have reused mount board as the backing for the individual squares.

I made 2 different sorts of flowers using scraps of silk and taffeta, with pearly brads in the middle. The flower at the top has 2 layers.... and the leaves and bobbly bits are rescued from last years christmas crackers.

If you can see the images in the background, you'll see they are of LONDON .

I hope you can join in with the challenge at TRY IT ON TUESDAY and come and visit the SMEARED AND SMUDGED FORUM and DT BLOG there.
