Smudgefest 2014 Day 1 & QTR #35

 

It is Day 1 for Smudgefest and the challenge for today is:

Mixed Media Monday -

You must use at least 3 different kinds of mediums in your project

 and

at least 1 Smeared Ink image to be entered into the grand prize drawing

I have an art journal page for today's entry.

I am also going to enter this page at Quoth The Raven, Nevermore.

QTR's current Quest #35 is Anything Poes.

As you probably guess, this page uses the Smeared Ink stamp set Quoth the Raven (Feb 2013).

I was also inspired by an Art Journal Everyday tutorial from the wonderful Julia Vasquez.  The technique is #27 Making Marks. 

Once my marks were finished, it reminded me of a wall.

So I wrote some quotes from The Cask of Amontillado by Edgar Allan Poe.
