Hot Mess - January 2026

It's the 12th of January, time to get messy. (insert deer-in-the-headlight look) As you likely recall from previous 12ths, I am not one who likes messes. Not one bit. BUT a challenge is only a challenge if it stretches you, and I'm up for the Hot Mess Success Challenge. 

Barb, Darlene, Terry, and I create cards for the Hot Mess Success challenge each month and share them on the 12th. 

It's Anything Goes - as long as there is something messy involved.

I added Ken Oliver Bursting Powders on Black CS and then diecut the words from it.

The background is stamped and embossed with white, then ink blended to add the pink.

Be sure to check out the other Hot Mess gals blogs, too, to see their cards (you'll be WOW'd!)...
