Smeared Ink Blog Hop ~Pieces & Parts~

Hello, all! This is my first time ever participating in a blog hop, other than hopping around and commenting, and I am so excited! I hope you will visit the Smudgy Antics Blog to take a look around and begin to hop for some inspiration!

The topic for this blog hop is as follows:
The theme this month is Pieces and Parts. Use at least two stamp or digi images combined to make a "new" image or focal point on your project. So, you can combine the top half of one stamp with the bottom of another, or add a part of one to another, or even build a background from several images, it's up to you! Use your imagination and have fun with it. We can't wait to see what you come up with! Also, don't forget the S&S rule that is has to be stamped somewhere (digi stamps are fine), which we're sure you won't miss with this month's theme.

So here is my take on this topic!

Till Death Layout. This is my take on using two stamps to make one focal point in my page. I used the Calavera Bride and Groom Digi stamps from Smeared Ink to create an artistic page that reminds me of how marriage means that each person is two parts to a whole. (A little mushy, I know....Lol.) I used some yellow cardstock with black laser cut paper, lots and lots of flowers from my stash, copics to color the stamps, Stickles, Thicksers, Lindy's Stamp Gang Mists (to color alphas), and different colors of liquid pearls.
