3. Cut a mat of Winter Lake cardstock to add approx 1/4" on each side.

4. Create the card base out of red cardstock cut to the size 5 1/2" x 8."

5. On Stampendous' Mixed Media White Paper, tape down the Thicket stencil.

6. Using Fresh Greens Kaleidacolor and a 1/2" Stencil Brush, apply the 3 middle colors, from lightest to darkest in circular motions all over the stencil. Try not to overblend the colors.

7. Remove the stencil from the paper and brush some additional color around the edges of the paper, varying the tones and keeping the color soft.

8. Add some yellow polka dotted ribbon to the stenciled layer, near the bottom.

9. Glue all layers.

February Smeared & Smudged Sketch Challenge

The new Smeared & Smudged challenges are up and ready for you to participate in! I got instantly inspired by Kelli’s card sketch for the month, as I have been working with different ideas for my next “Tarot Card.” Haha! That’s actually pretty funny! If you’ve been checking in over the past couple of weeks, you may have seen my Misty Benson Tarot Set 1 ( Smeared Ink ) cards. I’ve used The World and The Fool so far. Today, I bring you Death.

Can I just start off by saying that it is quite nerve wracking to slice your image??? I have done it a few times in the past, but I always get butterflies when I attempt it again. I colored the image and the card itself using nothing but Distress Inks and my Cut-n-Dry Nibs. My skull button at the top has been colored with Alcohol Inks.   The colors look a little off ...

They are so big and be...
