I'm so sorry but I just couldn't resist making this card. This was the first thing that came to my mind when I saw the Ink Splash stamp from Neat & Tangled. (My apologies, Danielle!) My first attempt only used white ink for the… um… "accident" but it didn't look quite right so I did some experimenting with adding some brown and grey and thought this looked a bit more realistic! :D What did we do before we had Google to show us what everything looks like? (Although given the joy the seagulls seem to be taking in decorating our dock I wouldn't have had to look far for true inspiration. But I digress…) I am gleefully entering this in the One-Layer challenge at Little Tangles and also the One-Layer Simplicity Challenge: Restocking the Shelves. I always need birthday cards but what I need even more than that are belated birthday cards and this fits the bill perfectly with the right sentiment on the inside. ;)ETA: Tracey pointed out the Simon Says Wednesday Challenge is Let's Have a Laugh which would fit perfectly with my card so I'm going to enter it over there. Thanks, Tracey!

Jen, if you only knew how many times a day I mutter this to myself...hopefully under my breath...your card made me smile! Perfect for a belated birthday card...very funny! (Way to research the right colors, too...that made me laugh!)
So smart. Love this and to think it is one layer too. Great belated birthday card!

I luv this card. I can picture giving this to someone as an apology type!
This totally cracked me up! As a mom and nurse that's around the stuff more frequently than I care to admit, I must commend you on the perfect shading...lol.
