My brain is mushy today, so I opted for simple color and stamping. I had no brain stamp to make a mushy one, so I just went with a Haunted House and my trusty Distress Inks to make an ATC.
I don't know if I did the inking in the right order or not....I stamped all the images. Then decided I wanted a cobweb too. It kinda obliterated the Beware sentiment. I stamped using Ranger Jet Black archival.
Then I applied the Distress Inks. I did the yellow first to make the interior glow and carried it up into the web. Then I used Wild Honey, my go to and only orange Distress Ink. Inked that corner downwards a bit. Then I inked the dark blue around the edges as you see. I use the round spongy dauber, spongy like my brain.
Then I decided it needed a black edge.....I dropped the inked dauber onto the blue corner. Thank goodness it was not on the orange:( Soooooooo I had a lot of black there. I kinda smooshed it inwards then took my wet washrag that I wipe down my craft mat with, and dabbed that corner. Kinda sorta maybe mhmmmsureeeee looks sorta ok.
Sorry for the ramble.
Hop on!

I think the inking looks great and so does the sentiment over the web. Really love the image, too. xxD
ReplyDeleteWonderful ATC. I see nothing wrong with it. We are often too critical of ourselves at times. Sometimes the accidents we make turn into good things. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous ATC - love all the elemants!!
ReplyDeleteThings can happen but they don't have to mess up your end result.
ReplyDeleteIt hs a delightfully freary feel to it.
I love how you darkened the one corner of the card. It really ties in with the rest of the card perfectly
