Simple !

 
Sometimes the simple things become the hardest !  Tonight I have been playing about "smooshing" with distress inks and brushos and as usual have ended up with a stack of inky papers. I  stamped my Inkylicious  Banksy girl and her balloon, then I couldn't decide on some wording, finally found the kite saying and thought I'd use that, stamped it just fine then disaster struck, I had not reckoned on the fact I had used glossy card and the versafine ink I'd used smudged when I put the card in the scanner, I managed to wipe the whole line off with a baby wipe and stamped it again with archival ink ,not perfect stamping as it slid a little on the glossy surface.
I want to enter my card on a couple of challenges
