Hello, All.
Today it is the Smeared and Smudged November Blog Hop
The theme is ALTER SOMETHING! No cards allowed...you have to alter an object. Use your imaginations, it can be a can, box, coaster, book, creepmas ornament, etc. Also, don't forget the S&S rule that is has to be stamped somewhere (digi stamps are fine) – we love when you use Smeared Ink stamps, but it is NOT a requirement to participate.
If you have arrived here from Jean you are on the right track and you will now be hopping to Lisa

Well my altered item is a CD I have made into a
Creepmas Ornament.
The image I have used is one of Teri's new Delicious Doodles: Skully Santa.
I have coloured him with Tim Holtz Distress Markers and used Twilight Glitter in his eyes for that touch of Creepmas sparkle lol.
I covered the cd with kandi core card I had embossed and distressed by sanding and just a little inking.
I threaded some red ribbon between the layers as a hanger and attached some bells (they jingle when shaken!)
On the back I used another circle of the same card and
I had found this really rough green sandpaper (sanding paper?) among my bits and pieces of tools and whatnot and thought it would make a good
Creepmas tree so I just cut three triangles quite randomly from the really rough sandpaper and inked the edges with black soot. I attached a few stars and of course it has to be skull at the top instead of a fairy!
My primitive, repurposed sandpaper tree! Did I mention it was really rough?
Enjoy your hopping!
Love and Peace,
Vee xx
