I made a Mixed Media Art Journal Page. Created the background with Dylusions Ink Sprays, Distress Inks and water. Once the background dried, I printed the image over it and made a second copy of the image that I colored with Spectrum Noir and fussy cut, then added everything to the printed background.

Day 7 of Smudgefest 2015 is here!
This is a week-long  Challenge extravaganza, each day a different challenge, and the prizes are amazing.
The challenge for today is called

Super Sunday

We have to take any Smeared Ink image and turn it into some sort of superhero on your project! We'll be nice and let you choose either super hero or super villain, but in your description or even on your project, you must tell us your super's name and super power.
Here is my ATC:

My Villain is The Riddler and he is an escape artist, maybe he is not a super villain, but I love this character.

Thanks!

Julia
