steampunk

i have used the new Capt.Locke image and kept to brownand pink theme-every thing i have used as embellishements are from scrap pieces of card stock as with the backing papers.
i found an old belt that has chains feathers and coins on and i have decided to dis mantle it and make use of the these as embelishments
i have used promarkers to colour in with a slight hint of spica pink on the buckles and glasses

red white and blue



Hi folks-what a week i just don't seem to be getting anything done atall.






mind you i am looking after a new dog we have as she was abandoned -we have to wait two more weeks to see if she has been claimed[apparently the government law states the dog wardenhas to advise new potential new owners that they are on a trial of one month fo rthe previous owner to turn up-for me if they dont report the dog within 24/48 as missing they don't deserve it....

rant over.


here she is [the card ] bodilicious in a sexy red corset highlighted in spica gltter pens-boots and gloves and the rest of the image has been coloured using promarkers,i have embossed the blue cardstock with musical note as i think she could have a certain caberet charm about her.

all the embelishments and papers are from my stash

[ i am trying to sort through it-hahaha]

going no where fast

I don't know why but i am going no where fast this week....my son seems to spend more time doing VB projects on the computer ;yet at the same time he is leaving a trail of chaos behind him more so than ever.[i am sure he has hired invisable gremlins ]

as for card challanges, i seem to be missing them all -i keep writing new lists and thats as far as it appears to be going.

anyone other bloggers having one of those weeks.

[need to put the shopping away and i dont have the desire to do anything ,me just want to curl up and be hugged]

embelsishments from stash and hand made flowers again scraps of paper from the bottoms of letters.
