SMUDGEFEST DAY 4-TWISTED THURSDAY, an ATC

Today for SMUDGEFEST, we were to make an ATC with the theme: Twisted.
Use a SMEARED INK image. My Mojo was a bit blank for a bit, but I finally came up with something!!  I'd like to also share with you, that my project yesterday was chosen for the winner (randomly) I was quite excited :)

 We all know "Curiosity Killed the Cat"

My TWIST is 2-fold...TWISTED sense of Humor, and the Baker's twine!

Kitty should have listened to her whiskers, and been careful where she stuck her head, tsk, tsk. LOL 

The ATC Background was received as a RAK. I stamped the STAMPIN' UP Cat (minus her head), and then placed the SMEARED INK Flying Skull over her neck. I made my own FLIES with Enamel accents and Stickles, both by RANGER, used my Notched corner punch (SU) and attached Black n white Baker's twine. The sentiment is from VIVALASVEGASSTAMPS.  Then attached a chipboard card to the back.

considering How Overwhelmed I felt, after seeing the AWESOME sample at SMUDGY ANTICS

I feel that this came out pretty well. I hope you all like it :)
