Smudgefest 2014 Day 6

Day 6 Challenge - Saturday Splatter - Create something splattery, oozing, drippy, or gooey.

I believe this blood thirsty bunny is a descendant from The Killer Rabbit of Caerbannog whom is mostly known for its small part in the movie Monty Python and the Holy Grail.  Nothing says 20th century more than a pink hoodie!

Smeared Ink Weekly DT Project

This week I have made an Art Journal Page using Smeared Ink stamps from the Rubber Club Past Offerings and the wonderful Prompt #25 Acrylics by Susan Salyer from the Smeared and Smudged Forum.

"Faster, faster ever faster
and yet faster now they race,
winding, whirling, ever swirling
in the frenzy of their pace
and they shimmer in the moonlight
as they spin themselves through space."

Tune Full of Deets

Stamps are from the Smeared Ink Rubber Club sets Danse Macabre (Jan 2014 #1) and Jack (May 2014 #1).

Background is from the AJED Prompt #25.  I used blues, brown, and gold acrylic paints.  White Gesso as my base.
Stars stencil and blue and white acrylic paint for sky.
Black StazOn ink with stars stamp.
Gold Encore Ink for music swirls.

Skeletons inked and stamped with Night of Navy ink pad.  Main Skellie inked and stamped with Versa Mark Ink then heat embossed with Black Embossing Powder.

The full version of the poem can be found HERE.  Poem is called The Dance of the Thirteen Skeletons from Nightmares: Poems to Trouble Your Sleep by Jack Prelutsky.

Journaling pen for doodles around edges and black Sharpie for words.

Weekly Smeared Ink Design Team Project

Oh no, I think that I am going to have A LOT of Art Journals.  But that's okay, the only thing is where am I going to put them!  Not to worry, I will find a spot. 

For this week's Smeared Ink Weekly Design Team Project I have made a new Art Journal.  This was inspired from the Art Journal Every Day Group on the Smeared and Smudged Forum.  I have used Prompt #13 & #16 along with Technique #16.

Prompts #13 is be inspired by the Big Top.  Prompt #16 use a Manilla folder for your Art Journal/page.  Technique #16 is building with ink, watercolor, and Gesso.  Thank You Laura B. and Susan Slayer for your prompts and techniques!

Stamps are from the Past Offerings of the Smeared Ink Rubber Club, Carnies (Dec 2013) and Dedicated to Art (Dec 2013).

Behind the Curtains

I cut my Manilla folder in half so that I could get two half folders out of it.  They measure 5 3/4" x 9".

Used Envelope Board to make more file tops on ends for each of the folders.

Layers of Ranger Distressed Inks, Watercolor crayons, White Gesso, Staz On inks, and Stampin' Up! inks. 
Aqua Painter, paint brush, Tombow Glue, and stencils also used.

Gold Smooch Spritz.

Fine tip Black Sharpie for written words.

Designer Paper is from a set called Big Top (SU! retired).

Images were stamped onto copy paper, fussy cut, and adhered on.

Snake Charmer was gone over with Versa Mark ink, Clear Embossing Powder and heat embossed.

Note:  Next time I think that I am not going to go over my main images with Gesso.  Tried to do it lightly but really lost color once Gesso was dried.
