WARNING PICTURE HEAVY POST!!!
I played with clay and faux finishes for my projects...
a pair of coasters, a fridge magnet and a hallhanger.
The stamps are SMEARED INK.
 The two coasters have a polished slate finish.
The fridge magnet tarnished copper.
 The wall hanger ...good old rust and corrosion.
The detail these stamps give with clay is magnificent.
This is a close up of the faux tarnished copper fridge magnet.
This the faux rust...
 ...this the polished slate.
Its the first time i've used this SMEARED INK stamp set with clay...
I am IMPRESSED! Shall be using them again for sure.
ALSO TODAY we have a new challenge for you at
QUOTH THE RAVEN..
we have a picture for your inspiration this month...
here is my project...A double page spread in a book of
POE i'm creating.
It has a SKULL on so I thought i'd combine my post...
and hopefully encourage some of you hoppers to join us at QUOTH this month.
You have until the 28th of June to join us.
Hope you will all enjoy the SKULL APPECIATION HOP...
