Spuds and Blood


I made some simple Christmas cards yesterday. I've made more work intensive cards in years past, but this year I decided I just wanted to do a good old fashioned potato print. We picked up our CSA share of veggies from Goranson's Farm last Saturday, and there were some decent sized spuds to work with...

I used Dahlov Ipcar as my inspiration...


...and I used one of Lisbeth's snowflakes as a stencil to spray the cards with a silver glitter spray paint as a final touch.

But then I said to myself as I bent over to look at them, Now all these cards need is a spot of red, and that's when my nose started to bleed!

I had to go sit down and put my head back before I dripped all over these!
(Yes, sorry, this is rather gory and gross, but it seemed too funny not to share!)
