A little Bit 'Inky'

The new challenge today at

Back To Basics and Beyond is

to get A little bit 'Inky'.

I have to admit I did a pretty simple ink project

as I saw another challenge I had wanted to join in

and it was to ink up your acrylic stamp block

then stamp on card stock.

I really had planned to join in but as usual time/life

got in the way so I decided I could use that technique

for my project here.

I inked my acrylic block with TH Distress Oxide Spiced Marmalade, 

spritzed it with water then stamped it on my card stock.

The acrylic block I used was probably the first one I had ever purchased

and has a nice wavy edge to it.

Then I stamped my image (SU House of Haunts)

several times using the TH Stamp Platform.

I love that thing, so much I ordered a second one to put away

in case I do something stupid to my original one...that is how much I love it.

Also did you know that Tonic has agreed not to sell any more of these in the states

once the ones in store are sold out?

What a shame that is.

I ordered a new Halloween paper pad

'Pink & Main' Not Too Spooky

and used that for my background.

A pretty neat one as it has no Halloween images on it, just the colors!
