I love the extreme elements set from SU. It is so fun to use and have found my inner love of the grunge look. It worked well with a paper pad dp that I have had for awhile. I was only able to do the technique on a very small strip of black paper. It is so soft and I thought it added to the extreme look.
Thanks for looking. Comments appreciated.

If I'm honest I don't think I have any love for the grunge look - but I can still admire it when other people do it well. The textured background ties in so well with your main image panel - love the colours you used behind the silhouette image.

Oh no, dont tell me you're into the extreme now? you and grunge..hmmm, I just cant see it but I guess all things are possible when you get to your age. I just never figured you as being into grunge. Oh well, I'll get over it. I know I will.
Love how you many times cb your dp! I love that effect. I love your coloring too. To be perfectly honest, I still cant believe with those schrivelled old hands of yours, you'd be able to color so well. Keep on stretching your talents; it's great for the brain. We know you dont want that grunge getting to your mind. Oh no. GReat card.
