Weekly Challenge: BLACK AND BLUE

Welcome back for another Smudgy Antics Challenge. 
 This week's theme is BLACK AND BLUE.

Take this theme however you wish. Black and Blue can be your color scheme, use the words Black and Blue in your sentiment, or bruise up some "normal" stamped image, etc. The more wild and creative you can get, the better! 
 We like it edgy and dark around here so show us what you've got!
 Please refer to the sidebar on the left for the rules.

BTW, you do not have to make a card. We also accept altered items, art journal pages, mixed media pieces, etc. As long as there is a stamped image and you follow the rules on the left sidebar, it's all fair game.

For your inspiration, here are some projects from the Smeared Ink DT:

The Prize:
Slave Angel and Sentiment
from Smeared Ink's "The Symbology of Angels" digi set.







Remember, be sure to link up by Midnight on Saturday PST to qualify for a prize then check back on Sunday for the random draw winner.



To be eligible for the coveted top three badge, be sure to use at least one Smeared Ink image.


If you like our challenges you should drop by our forum where we have additional monthly challenges as well as monthly blog hops and ATC swaps.

Have Fun!

Weekly Challenge - WICKED WITH WINGS

Welcome back for another challenge here at Smudgy Antics!

Did everyone survive Valentine's Day Forced Affection Day last week?  I hope so! i never trusted that blasted Cupid myself.  There's just something wrong with a grown man walking around half-naked in a diaper "in the name of love".  Cupid is evil I say!  Anyway, enough of my babble.  Let's get on with this week's challenge, shall we?

The theme for this week's challenge is "Wicked With Wings".

We are curious to see your take on this challenge.  What does "Wicked With Wings" mean to you?  Are you afraid of flying stinging insects?  Do demons haunt you in your sleep?  Have you ever seen a fae?  Is a bird your familiar?

  Get creative and don't be afraid to think outside the box.  We can't wait to see what you come up with!  BTW, you do not have to make a card.  We also accept altered items, art journal pages, mixed media pieces, etc.  As long as there is a stamped image and you follow the rules on the left sidebar, it's all fair game. 

For your inspiration, here are some projects from the Smeared Ink DT:




























  The Prize


Smeared Ink's Quoth the Raven Wings



Remember, be sure to link up by Midnight on Saturday PST to qualify for a prize then check back on Sunday for the random draw winner.  

To be eligible for the coveted top three badge, be sure to use at least one Smeared Ink image.

Have Fun!
