Steampunk Fairy



Evermore Nevermore invited me to design another outfit for a Sci Fi ~ Steampunk Fashion show held last night at the Nile Theatre in historic downtown Mesa. Here's my little grand daughter Clarah in her first fashion show. She was amazing! She waved, she smiled, she blew bubbles, she even busted a (hip hop) move at the end of her run. Everyone cheered! What a great night!

"Waiting"


This is the last of 35 challenges hosted by Studio L3. This has been quite an adventure through Tim Holtz book ~ Compendium of Curiosities. I found this greeting card a while back and never knew exactly what to do with it, so today, I decided to turn it into a new piece of art, simply titled "Waiting". I'm 'waiting' to see what Linda has in store for us on the next round of challenges.

Thanks Linda, Tim, Gloria, and Ranger for pushing us to new heights! And thanks to anyone who took a moment to view or comment on my blog!

It's almost Saint Patrick's Day!



How quickly we breeze through the calendar each year. While altering dozens of tiny treasure boxes for Valentine's day, I noticed the boxes were arranged in the shape of a four leave clover. Clever?!? Here's this week's challenge! Titled simply Clover.

Paris Tag


This week's challenge "Rusted Enamel" had me wondering about theme. My son is traveling in Europe this month and will be in France soon, so I decided on The Eiffel Tower as my main image. Je T'aime Paris!

Antique Box Challenge #30


Yesterday, my husband and I took a drive north to the Carefree/Cave Creek area. I found a few treasures at my favorite antique store. My 'best' find yesterday was this simple box with a little stamp on the back that read "Made in Italy". Here is my altered antique box using this week's challenge.
