Since there is no <a href="http://ikesworldchallengeblog.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">IKE'sWORLD Challenge</a> this week, we are having a bit of fun with the hop. Do you fancy winning one of the New images???? All you have to do is go around the hop and leave everyone a comment and then go back to<a href="http://ikesworldchallengeblog.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank"> IKE'sWORLD Challenges</a> and leave a comment saying that you've done that, how simple is that?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
This hop will run throughout this week, so you have plenty of time to enter. Make your way around and back to <a href="http://ikesworldchallengeblog.blogspot.co.uk/" target="_blank">IKE'sWORLD</a> by midnight on Sunday 2nd February 2014, and then we will do a random pick from those of you who completed the hop and let you know the winner at our next challenge post, which will be on Tuesday 4th February 2014</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

I have altered a photo frame using my favourite <a href="http://www.smearedink.com/" target="_blank">Smeared Ink</a> image from the As Death Set, available in Rubber from the <a href="http://www.smearedink.com/smeared-ink-rubber-club/" target="_blank">Smeared Ink Rubber Club</a>. I have stamped the corners and heat embossed. I like the contrast between the matt of the frame and gloss of the embossing. I then added the cord and tassel and attached a bow.</div>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">If you have visited the Smudgy Antics blog, you already know that the Smudgy Antics blog has been discontinued. As of December 1st 2013, and the Smudgy Antics Challenge has been moved to the <a href="http://smearedandsmudged.ning.com/" target="_blank">Smeared and Smudged Forum </a>and can now be found in the <a href="http://smearedandsmudged.ning.com/group/thechallenger" target="_blank">Challenger Group.</a></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">Come on by and check us out at <a href="http://smearedandsmudged.ning.com/" target="_blank">Smeared and Smudged</a>. Membership is <span style="color: red;">FREE.</span> Come by to network and socialise with other stampers. Learn cool techniques in the newly revised <a href="http://smearedandsmudged.ning.com/group/jeansmixedmediauniversity" target="_blank">Mixed Media University</a>, find out how to craft on the cheap side in the <a href="http://smearedandsmudged.ning.com/group/the-cheapskate-crafter" target="_blank">Cheapskate Crafter </a>group and express your feelings through art in the <a href="http://smearedandsmudged.ning.com/group/artjournaleveryday" target="_blank">Art Journal Everyday group</a>.

<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This week I decided to use the recently newly released <a href="http://www.smearedink.com/toxic-ballerinas/" target="_blank">Toxic Ballerina's,</a> but I couldn't decide which one of the digi stamps to use, so I decided to make a selection of toppers</span><br />
