Somebody That I Used to Know

Card based on song by Gotye

I created this card for the June Rock n Rolla Challenge on Smeared and Smudged. The challenge was to use the song "Somebody that I used to know" by Gotye as an inspiration for an art piece. If you haven't heard the song or seen  the video yet, it can be found on the S&S website.

The background of my card is a grate from the "Quoth the Raven" digital stamp collection by Smeared Ink. The girl image is from the "Haunted Reverie" collage sheet from Moonlight Journey.

A heart charm and some tulle were added to give the card some texture and dimension. The words I added are from the lyrics of the song. The words say " now you're somebody that I used to know".

I am also entering this card in the following challenges:


Simon Says Stamp and Show - Anything goes
Poisoned Peas - #4 Goth or Emo
The Paper Shelter - #68 Anything goes
Art with no boundaries - Anything Goes + Heavy Metal
Craft your Passion - #114 Anything Goes
Crafty Creations - #174 add a charm

There is some great artwork on display on the above listed sites. Check them out and you will be impressed.
