Hot Mess - Take 50

It's the 14th of September, which means I'm two days late getting messy. (insert deer-in-the-headlight look) As you likely recall from previous 12ths, I am not one who likes messes. Not one bit. BUT a challenge is only a challenge if it stretches you, and I'm up for the Hot Mess Success Challenge. I am late this month as I had other posts here on my blog... but the other Hot Mess gals are forgiving so it's okay.

Barb, Carol, Darlene, Terry, and I create cards for the Hot Mess Success challenge each month and share them on the 12th. 

It's Anything Goes - as long as there is something messy involved.

I started by pouncing Ranger Distress Ink onto a piece of plastic and then spritzed it with water before smearing heavy white cardstock through the mess. Once it was completely dry I diecut the word hi from the paper.

The background was diecut and then embossed using the Stampin' UP! Tufted Dynamics embossing folder. I blended ink around the edges.

Be sure to check out the other Hot Mess gals blogs to see their cards, too (you'll be WOW'd!)...
