Over at SMEARED & SMUDGE FORUM - the February JUNK FUNK Challenge is to use "Drier Sheets"... you know, those things you lob in the tumble drier. Well, I can't get those here so I decided to use Baby Wipes and dry them off. Same kinda' stuff I guess. :-)
I was inspired by a digi image by tOri called 'Skull & Crossbones Twisters' from SMEARED INK, which has crochet hooks, so I decided to crochet my Baby wipes. I cut them into strips and then joined them up with knots and crocheted a mat. I like the way the knots looked so I pulled them all through to the front :-) It was very difficult coz you can't put any tension much on it coz the fibres pull apart.
Anyhoo - here it is...................

I used plain black card for the base and distressed the edges. The main image was printed 3 times and then fussy cut and layered up with Silicone to make him 3D. I added some red gems on the first layer to give him scary eyes. :-D
I just love what you do!!!
