Day 9

hello and welcome back! here's a little info on what's going on. today i went creppy for my project. i have altred the top of an altodies tin. the stamping didn't quite turn out too well. in the upper corner is supposed to be a spider web and the bottom, which turned out better, is a drippy stamp. the spider web is from studio g, and i can't remember where the drippy stamp came from, i think it might be hobby lobby. the image in the middle is from an old biology book from 40's or 50's. i sanded the tin down and painted it with black and silver. did you know smeared ink is going to be offering rubber again!!!! i'm super exicted!!!! go here for the info! now head on over to sidebar and get to hopping! enjoy! lisa
