Week 2 of DRIPPING with Smudgy Antics

Welcome back for week 2 of the fortnight challenge with Smudgy Antics!
For this challenge we want to see how you ladies and gents can incorporate DRIPPING into your projects.  The more creative and out of the box the better!  We want to see how far you can take this challenge.  
 The more imaginative, the better your chances of a win. 

If you have no clue what to do, you may use any medium that drips (faux blood, water colors, paints, enamels, etc).  You can use an image that has dripping on it (a zombie with dripping blood, a monster with dripping saliva, etc).  You may even use punches or die-cuts with a dripping edge.  There are so many ways to apply dripping to your projects so there is no excuse NOT to play along with us.

Please refer to the left side bar for a reminder of the rules.   If your stamping is not evident, please explain where or how your stamped image was used in your project.  

Pictured below is some inspiration from the remainder of the 
Smeared Ink DT.  

 You may click on the individual pictures for a larger view and you can visit any of the designers' blogs by clicking on the names above the project pictures.  

I highly suggest visiting the designers' blogs as you can learn tips and tricks on how each lady made her project. 
Leaving a bit of love is always appreciated too.








The Prize:

A $5.00 gift voucher to Smeared Ink.

Remember, be sure read and follow the rules in the left sidebar and link your project to Inlinkz by Midnight PST on Saturday June 29th, 2013 to qualify for a prize then check back on Sunday evening (June 30th, 2013)

If you are not of fan of digi images, perhaps you would like to put your winning gift voucher towards an 8.5" x 11" sheet of deeply etched, unmounted rubber instead?  Yep.  Smeared Ink's Rubber is BACK!  Check out the Smeared Ink Rubber Club for more information.

USE TEXTURE IN YOUR PROJECT WITH SMUDGY ANTICS - week 2

Welcome back for week 2 of the fortnight challenge with Smudgy Antics!
For this challenge we want to see more than just paper, glue and ink.
We want to see TEXTURE and lots of it!  

We want you guys and gals to create projects that make us want to reach through the computer screen and touch everything we see!  The more creative the better!  We love it when you guys and gals think outside of the box and make something with that extra "WOW" factor!

Of course we must address the fine print.  Although the focus of the challenge is to use TEXTURE, you must still use a stamped image (real or digi) and you must follow the rules posted on the left sidebar of the challenge blog to be in the running for a prize.  Collage sheets may be used to enhance your project, but they do NOT count as a stamped image so make sure you use a stamp of some sort in your final piece.
This is the last week to play along with the TEXTURE challenge. 

Pictured below is some inspiration from the remainder
 of the Smeared Ink DT.  
 You may click on the individual pictures for a larger view and you can visit any of the designers' blogs by clicking on the names above the project pictures.

Leaving a bit of love is always appreciated as well.
