Traveler in time

This was so much fun to make!  I used Inka's Altered Artifacts new set Monkey Bizz and Steampunks to make this.  I also used some of her free images to keep it pure.  The fish was cut out of a piece of wrapping paper, I thought it added the right touch.  I don't know if you can see I used Stickles on the birds and on the fish.  I sprayed the background ledger paper with Tattered Angels Wheatfields and used Tim Holtz tea dye on the torn edges, I also let it curl up a bit.  The doilies were sprayed with TH butterscotch, and lettuce green along with the firebrick red dauber.  I also used some Stampin Up Crystal Effects on the clock faces and on the young man's eye glass. Stop by Inka's Altered Artifacts Etsy shop to see more fun images like this.
Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

Blue n Bell

 This was another fun project to make.  I used Lindsay's Stamp Stuff Bold Black and White printed on Coredinations blue cs.  The awesome Gothic Arch is a printable or SVG file from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff also.  The gorgeous articulated images Bluenbell are from Inka at Altered Artifacts.  She has a program that allows you to work with one of her new images for free if you sign up, check it out here.  I used Tim Holtz tape and the bg image was a freebie from Dover.  I have never worked with articulated figures before, I wasn't quite sure how to connect them so I put them together by using a short piece of string to connect the pieces so they stay moveable.
Thanks for looking.  ~Diane

Happy UnBirthday

 You don't want to know how many times I tried to get this right, lol, but I think I finally did.  At least it's what I saw in my head (we all know my head is not quite right though).  The fabulous vintage Rabbit is from Inka at Altered Artifacts.  I have been dying to use him.  The beautiful bg paper Pocket Watch is from Lindsay's Stamp Stuff Steampunk Stamps set.  The King and Queen of Hearts are from Jolee's by You.  The pocket watch charm is from Blue Moon Madame Delphine's collection jewelery pieces.  The teapot ribbon was from JoAnns clearance bin, unmarked.  I used Tim Holtz distress inks in broken china blue, scattered straw and dusty concord.   I used leftover stencils from my Penny Duncan cd.  I also used a Versamark pen to carefully color in the Rabbit and then embossed with clear embossing powder.  The first time I went out of the lines a little and the bright green BG paper came through on just some of the edges.  I also used Tattered Angels Iridescent Gold and since the Rabbit had been embossed in clear, I could just wipe away any ink or mist that fell on him.  I also used a Spellbinders Fancy tag.  
I made this to fall into 2 challenges at Gingersnap Creations.
