Dabbled Deets
Background is from the Smeared Ink digital set called Venice.
Image was altered with Picasso and printed out on Whisper White card stock.
Took the quote from The Masque of the Red Death by Edgar Allan Poe and used AR JULIN font in Word. Printed out over background.
Used Jet Black Ranger Archival Ink and stamps from a Smeared Ink rubber set called Inky Dreams. Stamped randomly around edges of page.
All edges on page were distressed and sponged.
Basic Black card stock for backing. All edges also distressed.
Illuminate Pearlized Top Coat Smooch on random words through out quote.
Black journaling pen to add quotation marks and title.
Crop-a-dile to punch holes for 1" binder rings.
"The mask which concealed the visage was made
so nearly to resemble the countenance of a stiffened corpse that the
closest scrutiny must have had difficulty in detecting the cheat.
And yet all this might have been endured, if not approved, by the
mad revellers around. But the mummer had gone so far as to assume
the type of the Red Death. His vesture was dabbled in blood --and
his broad brow, with all the features of the face, was besprinkled
with the scarlet horror."
