I decided to jump back in with the fabulous gals over at Haunted Design House because I love their latest challenge: "Out! Out, damn spot!" - something that is covered in splatter, drips or drops. Of course, it doesn't have to be blood, but what would be the fun in that?
I actually made this for a friend, who is enchanted with the BBC series Sherlock, which is modern day reworking of Sherlock Holmes. Instead of being a (mostly) proper Victorian gentlemen, he's a high-functioning sociopath. Aaahh, there's nothing like a little murder to get the blood flowing. Or, in this case, splattering.
My blood is acrylic paint; red ink didn't keep it's beautiful bright color. I was rather disappointed to find out that I don't have an axe stamp, because I thought the piece would have been perfect with one; I'm not sure what that says about me. LOL!
Enjoy and thank you, as always, for looking!

Gun, axe, knife, clues - I feel like I'm in the middle of a board game. LOL. Seriously, great card. The "blood splotches" are perfect.

Um, ...WOW! I really like the feel of this card. Sort of medical autopsy, meets a bit of gore and intrigue. I love it.
Thanks for playing with us this week and it's good to have you back!
Yay! Great to see you again! This is gorgeously gruesome and understated and I love it! And I haven't seen that Sherlock programme, but I love your description, so I'm going to keep an eye out for it :D
Thanks very much for playing along with us at HDH, and I'm sorry for the lateness of my comment, I've been a little swamped this week. Hope to see you on our fun blog hop this week too :D
