Another Thoughts and Prayers

Yesterday I shared a Sympathy Card using the Thoughts & Prayers stamp set.  When I did that card, I was making it for the FTL114 challenge on the Clean & Simple Stamping blog as well as the CAS91 challenge on SCS.

The layout was for a curvy design like on last night's card.  However, I realized, after I had finished it, that it was supposed to be a ONE LAYER card!  Oops!  Back to the drawing board.

This time, to be different, I flipped the design and ran it vertically instead of horizontally.

 I didn't get a clear stamp!  But since I was using the Stamp-a-ma-jig, I restamped.  Guess what?  Either the card or the SAMJ moved!  But, I kind of liked the ghosting.  So I did it 3 times.  Do you know that SAMJ moved every time!  Unfortunately every time it moved it left some ink where I didn't want it!

So, I got out the color spritzer tool and spritzed a little of both colors of ink.  It did a good job of covering up the smudges.  You can't even see them unless you look really, really close.  Then because everything is slightly blurred anyway, it looks like it was done on purpose.  I doubt I could do this again if I wanted to try!
