SMUDGY ANTICS and MACABRE MONDAY


Its MONDAY so i have a couple of new challenges to tell you about....
the 1st is SMUDGY ANTICS.
This week's challenge theme is "LEVEL UP". We want to see layers and more layers in your projects. Show us how you level up! Get creative and don't be afraid to think outside of the box. We can't wait to see what you come up with!
I used a digi image from SMEARED INK...printed it out 6 times and fussy-cut... into dimensional layers and made up my 3D piece with silicone... once set i dipped it in my melting pot. It looks so nice in real life..... almost like real porcelain . I altered a 'watch' box using various stamps from SMEARED INK.... to make a background paper to cover it with....loads of ink to darken the edges..... and the lid topped with the gryphon. I hope you'll have time to show us your layers this week.

I shall enter the following challenges....

Next up ....of cause as its Monday it just has to be
MACABRE MONDAY.

You are to create a dark, Gothic, or Halloween-based art piece
based or inspired by your favorite quote.

There are so many wonderful quotes to draw inspiration from!
Maybe a quote from a favorite book or movie character.
How about something historical or just plain hysterical?

Who would i quote? Who else but the Master... E.A.POE.
I used images from ItKuPilLi, stamp from NON-SEQUITUR, promarkers to alter the colours, blue and black ink, and black card stock.
I hope you'll have time to share your favourite QUOTE with us this week.

I shall enter this piece into the following challenges.....
thanks for visiting me... love lynx
