I'm so excited to see what you create with this theme challenge! I know it might be outside of the comfort zone for a lot of us - so I invite you to explore your 'dark' side! lol

I am stretching this morning trying to get in loosened up to try this "out of my zone" challenge this weekend.
Learning new things...that's what makes this hobby fun!
I'll see you soon! ...Jan

G'day Lauri
I'd love to see a bigger photo of your projects, I can't open them up. Can you please post them in the gallery?
This is going to be a test for me. I don't even know if I have a "dark side"~ better go look!

I searched my stamp stash and I have nothing! maybe a fleur de lis stamp. I'm off to raid my stamping friends cupboards. Hope I can find something

I posted my arch in the gallery. Lauri this challenge was more fun than I expected ...thanks a bunch!

Sarah, in one of blogs I read about grunge one gal commented that to make things look grungy she just inks up some corregated cardboard with white ink stamps it on her work to add irregular distress looking whitelines. Also one of Lauri's links on the creative page shows how to start with a typical card and add grunge...here ya go (http://www.blockheadstamps.com/Images/CardSampleImages/Grunge/this-to-this.jpg). Get Grundgy!

This was fun, once I got into it. I guess I do have a 'dark' side. Oooooooo...Spooky, spooky.

I'm off to take Ally to the Hannah Montana concert - when I get home, I'll try more of this grunge stuff!

Thanks Jan, the how to grunge up a normal card is more my style. I want to make something that I can use.

Ok, I finally posted a photo of my dragon card
http://stamp-shack.com/photopost/showphoto.php?photo=11186

This was certainly out of my comfort zone of "pretty" cards, but it made me use stamps that were feeling unloved. i also used a piece of background I made for the last technique challenge.
