Little Clown ATC

This sad little clown really caught my eye.  I had already created my red  background when I saw him and it seemed a perfect fit for this image.

I stamped the harlequin background with Versamark ink and then embossed with clear embossing powder.  Next came the bingo marker border and the Barn Door Distress stain (the embossing resisted the ink and makes the harlequin pattern stand out).  The outside borders were enhanced with Fired Brick and Black Soot Distress inks.  It still needed a little something after I added clown boy and little red rhinestones seemed to fit the bill.

I'm entering this in the VLVS May inspiration (inspired by the background pattern and colors) and Wicked Wednesdays harlequin challenges.

Thanks for stopping by!
