I had great fun with this page. If you click on the picture you can see the detail clearer. The background is marbled using the shaving foam technique with Cosmic Shimmer Mists and Glimmer Mists. The splats are Distress Stains and the drops and steaks are Charcoal Glimmer Mist. I stamped the letters with a new clear alphabet set called Hombre by Sassafras Lass. I picked this and another set up at Farnborough Make it show. They were very cheap in a bargain box and stamp out brilliantly - not that you can see that too well as I have messed them up! I have used lots of Shabby Blue Frantage embossing enamel and then a variety of bits and pieces all stuck on with Cosmic Shimmer glue. There are also some drink stains - these are made with the bottom of a plastic glass and Distress Ink. I think you can definitely say this is a mess! Thank you for visiting and take care.

Brilliant! I love it!
What a beautiful mess, Christine! I did pop up the image and saw all that fine detail! A toothpick? Really? I had not yet thought of that one, but, in doing so, could we not make a fence of it? ;-) Great fun here!
Hullo there Christine,
Well, lovely inky work going on here, love the title!
Thanks so much for popping over and for sharing! Shaz in Oz.x

Looks like my desk top, love it.
Hi Chris what a fabulous mess. I did have a close look and there are lots of fabulous elements, the toothpick, clips and little sequinned bits! I actually have an Inkadinkado stamp that is a glass stain - fabulous! Hugs Susan xx
This doesn't look like a mess at all it is terrific. Splats are a real work of art and to make them look that good takes a lot of practice lol.
Great word to chose
Love Chrissie xx
Hi Chris, well this certainly made me smile - it looks like one of my 'normal' journal pages - lol. Seriously, it is a very well designed mess, toothpick and all...... Hugs, Anne x
A lovely mess
what a good idea for a page Chris. My cats would make a lovely page as they leave their muddy pawprints over everything.
