Jackson's Digital Expressions - Challenge #13

-
Today at Jacksons digital expressions our Anything goes challenge is with the twist of Inks and such.  Easy right?  I know that I love to play with my markers and inks... so I figured I would join them this week and play along ;)

Our amazing sponsor this week is

For this week I decided to play with a altered art take ;)  I never do this... but I read the instructions from our DT coordinator wrong... anyway I was sure that I was making this for altered art and thought it would be great... when I realized my mistake lol I figured it would still make for a great project, just had to add a bit more inks! ;)  Easy peasy.

So this is what I started off with:
It's a little easel with a canvas.  The image that I was working with from Bugaboo is Frame it Today's menu and I thought this would be a great addition to my kitchen.  Since I have 4 kids... there's always one or two or three (if I'm not lucky lol) that complaints somehow about the food!!!!  So this is the sign that I will be pointing them to from now on ;)))):

Isn't it fun?!?  Not sure they will like it but I do!  So really happy in the end that I read wrong lol. 

I covered the canvas with DP comming from Colobok.  I used my copics to color up Stella and the pots.  Then I used my Tim Holtz distress ink pens to do the frame around the image.  And finally I took some distress ink pad with a sponge and sponged up the sign.  What do you think?  Have I inspired you to play with us?

Looking forward to commenting your entries at Jacksons digital expressions.

    Well good for you! Love the way it turned out. Not sure I'd have had to distress it though, a few weeks on my kitchen counter and it would be distressed alright, lol. Thank-you for sharing with us at The Poodles Parlour!
