STEAM PUNK ALTERED WATCH

Well, this was a challenge for me. I have done altered watches before, but steam punk is new to me. Artchix Sister Site is having a steam punk watch swap, so I gave it a try.

I am almost finish with the one I will swap. I will post it when I have finished. I feel this one is a little messy. But I like the over all look.

WOW 200

I just posted my 200 post so how about a give away. Here is a calendar to keep up with all your swaps and appointments and a Martha Stewart's 6" by 8"-accordion-fold album with 12 pages.
Just leave a comment and away to get in touch with you. I will draw a name on 7 of Jan. And I would love for you to become a follower of my blog.

More Pages for the Round Robin

My pages I did on Renee Stockfleth book for the round robin. Renee's theme was "Numbers" I decided to use 3 and from that I picked "The Three Little Kittens". Renee always comes up with the best books (size and shape) for Sallie Rodman's our host for the Round Robins.

Fairy and Mermaid Bottles

I made many of these little bottle for our Holiday House and I only have these 3 left. I am very excited about this. The bottles are 2 1/2" tall. I had fun adding the tiny fairies and tiny mermaids in the bottles. I also added some fairy dust and a few small items to decorate the inside of the bottles.

Back of bottles-I added a charm and small tag with the words "make a wish" on the fairies bottle and on the mermaids I added the words "dream a dream".

Artchix Studio "Steam Punk Swap"

All the images I used are from Artchix Studio. Helga has a wonderful selection of collage sheets, so it was easy to use Only Artchix Images. Even though you only had to use one of her images. I love vintage buttons- I have so many jars of them. But I used the buttons from one I received from Helga. The only thing not Artchix was the cardboard for the atcs and the other emblishments.

Four more Stream Punk ATC's. These are for an Artchix Studio Swap. Love trying something new.

My First Lottery Of The New Year

Artchix Sister Lottery-Mary Wilkins is the host and the theme is "Winter Fun". Always great to start the New Year with a fun theme.

Artchix Sister Site Lottery

The theme is "New Year Resolutions"-Cindy McMath is our Host. I am very good at making resolutions but terrible at keeping them. So I decided to pick one that I hope I have a chance of keeping. How are you at keeping your resolutions???

BOOK FOR A FRIEND

I made this book for a dear friend who just lost her husband.

I used coasters you use for drinks. I lightly painted them and drilled holes. I black the edges with a maker and used a copper ink pad to rub around the edges. Then added decorated paper for background and added my my images of angels. I used glue glitter for color and to define the wings.

Then added some embellishments-put together with ribbon.

AUDREY

Audrey Hepburn is one of my favorite actresses. So, I made up this collage on her. I used an old box top-lined it with decorated paper. I added my images. With a few of the images I used glue dots to add depth. I used markers to add color-which I think added pop to the collage.

Wrapped in the Wings of Love

Just a little something I put together.

Lisa's Bottle

Lisa Robinson sent me this lovely green bottle and wanted a Christmas theme. I decided to use to use an angel coming out of the bottle. I hope she likes it.
