Alter something...like a mouse trap

Welcome to the Smeared Ink DT monthly hop!

this month's theme is "Alter something"

For the longest time I have wanted to alter a mouse trap...so here it is :)

I used some images from the  Heavy Metal digi set I printed them out and added some gold bronze paint to them then distressed them, added an old add and some flowers some jewelry and a fleur de lis now I have a new...mouse trap...I guess I could use it to hold notes to DH shopping lists and stuff.

be sure to check out the rest of the hop and see what the other girls have altered.

Smeared Ink New Rubber Release

Welcome to the new release hop! 

as you may have heard Smeared Ink has a rubber club, and its a club where you can get your hands on some yummy Smeared Ink rubber stamps! each month they have a different stamp set that you can buy if you are a member, and this month they have two brand new stamps sets by the artist Alexandria S. the sets are called Abyss and Winged Things...you can read more about the rubber club and sign up here now onto my awesome creations.

now be gentile with me this is my first time creating a canvas...but can I just say it was so much fun! it definitely wont be my last!

I used images from the Abyss they are hanging in my bathroom,

and the husband loves them! although with a mermaid looking like that who wouldn't ;)

I added a lil skull to both of them...don't know why...it just looked cool...these have lots of awesome texture, and they are shimmery and cool...the shells came from Hawaii and I'm glad I could give them new life!

ok now onto the rest of the hop with you! have fun and don't forget to leave lots of love on your way!!

I have another ATC to share with you today

I had so much fun making the background for this one! I put down some masking tape to make texture, then I added some gesso, and then painted over it all, added some glitter and there I have some ocean looking stuff! I used one of the Merbabies from Smeared Ink and a quote I found online!

today I have a Smeared Ink ATC to share with you

I used Anita from the Chicks Dig Guns digi set (one of my faves), and I colored her up with pencils then added her to my Gelli plate background, I used lyrics for the song "My Eyes Adored You" by Frankie Valli and some eyeball stamps here and there.

this was made for a swap at Smeared and Smudged, we swap every month and anyone can join!
