Smudgefest - Day six

Wow, day 6 already. One more day to go on the 7 day challenges. Full details are on the Smeared and Smudged Smudgy Antics Blog. Today is the Sketch Challenge.


A long hard think into which Smeared Ink image to use. Then I remember I have some stamped images sent to me by a friend of the Goddesses that I haven't used yet. Just the thing!!
The Fire Goddess was the one I chose. Coloured with promarkers. Cut out and mounted onto red c.s. matted onto a pale orange fibrous paper.

Lots of firey coloured papers as well. Handmade paper was wetted and pulled apart to show the fibrous nature of it. the edges treated to a bit of "barndoor" DI. All stuck together and finished off with ribbon. The base card was also given a lick of DI in spiced marmalade and barn door. I tried to give the impression of heat.
A few firey red tear drop gems to represent more flames.


I am entering this into the Smudgy Antics day 6 challenge
