Lilyand the Lotus and a new Smudgy antics challenge and Day 31 of Smeared and Smudged 31 Days of halloween

Welcome to the Lily and the Lotus and a new challenge with http://smudgyantics.blogspot.com This is a color challenge...and Day 7 of 21 Days of Halloween with Smeared and Smudged Ink.
All of you know how I love journal art so I had to use my new http://www.stencilgirltalk.com/
stencil let's see if you can guess who she is..The digi is from the store at http://www.smearedink.com/
Frida Kahlo her parrot and her monkey are displayed on this page.
The sugar skulls represent food made during celebrations of Dia de los Muertos
which November 1 is All Saints Day (the children)
and
November 2 All souls day(everyone) I combined the two .
Frida was a artist best known for her self portraits her work was known as "pain in Passion" because of her turbulent life..which ended when she was 47.
I want to thank all of you dear friends for my support as a DT for Smudgy Antics. I am soon moving to a different spot Smeared and Smudged Art Journal every Day  Design Team with the awesome Laura . This next year I will be taking Life Book 2014 classes with many awesome teachers so I hope to have many wonderful things to enrich your journal experience.
Enjoy
