Smeared and Smudged Day 18

Hi All

Welcome to day 18 of the 31  Days of Halloween at Smeared and Smudged. Today I have altered a tin can lid. The image I have used is from Smeared Ink from the set Mistresses of the Dark she is called Courtney.I am also entering this in the Junk Funk challenge and Smeared and Smudged.  I first cut a circle of can to fit the lid I then stamped this with the mesh stamp from Smeared Ink's Nevermore set. Courtney was coloured with promarkers cut out and glued onto the card. I cut a strip of blue fabric did a running stitch gathered and glued onto the back of the lid I cut another circle of card and glued this also at the back to finish.  I then put 3D Crystal Lacquer all over the front of the lid, this would not dry so I had to carefully take the photo while it was still wet. Hope you like it. I am entering my project into the following challenges:-

This really turned out cool, Jane! What I'd like to know is where you get a can opener that doesn't leave sharp edges? I've looked everywhere. xxD
