New Release Hop for Smeared Ink

I have another new image release from 
to share with you today.

I have chosen to use "Loved Alone Octopus" for my card.
I thought he would be perfect on a Father's Day card. 
One down, three  more to go.

I was able to destash some TH gears and cogs that I had lying
around from another project. The colors matched, so why not?
I popped the gears up on foam dots for added dimension.

I colored this dapper fellow using Copics and tried to fussy cut 
him out with shaky hands. He looks a little rough in spots, but 
it is handmade, after all.

The image I used is from the "I Loved Alone" set of images
now available at Smeared Ink.


Feel free to hop around and see all of the awesomeness that has been
created using these new images. Plus, there is a giveaway involved as well.
Be sure to leave some blog love on each DT's Smeared Ink post, and maybe you
will win the entire set of images!

    Oh my the color of that wonderful image is phenom! I'm glad to see some steampunk images. I saw it and immediately said to myself I've got to use that one. Every part of the card screams manly. Love it.
