Mixed Media Monday Challenge - Monochromatic Colours


This is my entry for the Mixed Media Monday Challenge - the colour I chose was red. I inked the skinny with aged mahogany distressed ink, then I threw water over it to make the watermarks. I dried it off with a heat gun, then I stamped my images using various different shades of red.
This will also double up as one of my red skinnys for the lotstodo rainbow swap

    Yeah, I like the water splashes too - I like the ghostly look.
