"Poe Key" Smudgy Antics Challenge + Smeared Ink news!

 Happy Monday Dominoians, I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!
We're now entering the 2nd week of our current Smudgy Antics Challenge so pop on over and enter if you haven't had chance yet to be in the running for 2 fab little prizes!

AUGUST 2015  '' ANYTHING GOES...WITH AN OPTIONAL TWIST''
The TWIST this month is
'' CREEPY CREATURES''

Plus, some awesome news, Smeared Ink is BACK with a whole new website and blog, YAY!  Stop by and check out their whole new look HERE!

My DT share is in celebration of Poe, the master of macabre....and yes, I do consider him a Creepy Creature LOL!
I made a "Poe Key....to unlock your dark side" using Smeared Ink's Poe and quote from the Quoth the Raven rubber set, a key and 2 altered Pairs in Pears game tiles.  A really cool way to jazz up your boring keys!


To alter the game tiles I first applied Platinum Planet metallic silver Brilliance ink to the blank side of one and the letter side of the second, of course I chose P for Poe.  I heat set the ink before stamping the image of Poe and the quote in black StazOn ink and heat set again.  I then edged and coloured the sides and the opposite sides of each piece with DecoColor Liquid Silver paint pen and spray sealed them with Krylon Artists Workable Fixative and gloss sealer.  I completed my project by sandwiching the key between the 2 tiles with E6000 adhesive.
