I struggled on this Halloween card. After coloring the image, I wanted a background. So, I thought I would sponge it. Well, sponging didn't work well. I don't know if all my ink pads need reinking or it was the Spectrum Noir paper, but it just would not blend. I kept adding different colors to hide all the splotches. It kinda looks like a cloudy night, maybe, hopefully. I am entering this card into the following challenges.

I would never have thought you had trouble blending this, it looks great Amy. I had trouble a few weeks ago and I found that my sponges were way too dry, a quick spritz of water directly onto the foam gave instant results. I digress - everything about this looks terrific.
