I finally finished a Steampunk frame for my Steampunk Lady. This frame was bright white when I started.  I used clear gesso, Sepia acrylic paint, waited for it to dry.  Then I added Steampunk items that I had in my stash.  After that I painted everything with black gesso and then I used Finn's Rust pastes to get the rusty effect.  I went over it with a bit of gold paste too

This is my first project for the Bleeding Art DT Challenge.  It will be my last for this team as I am going to be on the Steampunk Grunge DT starting in September.
I used a wood board and added lots of chipboard, cogs and clocks some Mitform Castings and chains.  I then painted everything with black gesso then went over that with Finnabairs black gesso.  After that I used Finnabair's Rust Pastes to get this grunge effect

A Mother's Love - Strength Of A Woman

This is a mini journal I created for the Funkie Junkie
Boutique Challenge
"A MOTHERS LOVE"


"Strength Of A Woman"

I made this mini journal in memory of my mother
She was the strongest person I have ever known
She had been through more than anyone I have
ever know and survived it all until her passing
at 93

She was my best friend, my confident and my
partner in crime

"Sew Shabby"

These are some projects I made for The Funkie Junkie Boutique Blog
Challenge called "Little Things"


The Title is "SEW SHABBY"


1.      The first two projects are mini ATC cards
         2.5x3.5
         I added some pattern tissue paper to the card
        Then I added various sewing themed items
        Buttons, lace, thread, clothespins and in a mini bottle some hat pins
        and a piece of measuring tape
        I distressed it with Tim Holtz Distress Ink

2.     The second one is a sewing them with a wooden lady in the middle
        The card was first distressed with Tim Holtz Distress Ink  
        I added muslin that I colored with the Distress Ink
        Some thread, a hat pin, buttons and a clothespin

3.     The third project is a mini wooden doily 3-1/3x3-1/2
        Over it I colored a lace doily with Lindy's spray ink
        I added a chipboard clock in the middle (hence Sew Shabby)
        Buttons, thread, muslin a tag that says Create and a needle threader
