"Beautiful Darkness"

WELCOME EVERYONE TO THE SMEARED & SMUDGED JANUARY MEMBER BLOG HOP! The theme this month is MESH IT! We were to interpret this how you'd like. We could use mesh, mesh images together, have a mesh texture...etc. We were to use our imagination and have fun with it.

So when you have a chance, pop on over to the Smudgy Antics Challenge Blog and link up your recycled creation, you have until Sunday, January 15, 2012 at 2am CST.
