Smeared Ink Stamps at Crafting By Designs!

Oh we have a fabulous challenge for you this week at Crafting by Designs! This is an Anything Goes challenge and we have Smeared Ink as our sponsor so I got to play with a great wee Gear Heart image with wings! And, after talking to a couple of friends during the week about keeping paper that is too good to cut into, I finally got the courage to use the Graphic 45 Steampunk Spells papers that I've been drooling over for many weeks now!

So, with the stamp, I printed and coloured it twice, layering it up with 3D foam to make an embellishment for the card, rather than as a central image. I cut and layered paper and images from both the 6x6 and 8x8 paper pads using black pearlescent paper matts. And I finished the card with a large black floppy bow.

A simple design, I didn't want to overdo it. The image is coloured as always with my promarkers and as the lovely Andrea and Karen both said, the papers look much better on a project than in the pad!



I will enter this in the following challenges -
Creative Fingers Challenge Blog - Anything Goes/Emo/Goth
My Craft Creations - Anything Goes
Card Mania - Anything Goes
Craft-Dee Bowz - Anything Goes with a handmade bow
Lady Anne's Challenge - More than One Layer
Make it Monday - Anything Goes


I really hope you will join us this week for Anything Goes and you might just be lucky enough to get your hands on some fabulous Smeared Ink prizes!
Thanks for looking!
