Anything goes!!!

 Hello everyone, today is my day on the Conjuer of Dreams blog https://kimsconjurerofdreams.blogspot.com/.  This month I decided it was time to return to some 12x12 layouts - it is amazing how much I miss doing these.  I let my inner rustic girl come out and pulled a variety of western, steampunk and rustic elements to go with pieces from my stash.  I am so pleased with how they turned out!!!  I don't plan a layout around photos - I do the layout and let the pictures fit where they may.

Flights of Fancy

 Today I am up on the Gecko Galz blog https://geckogalzscrapbooking.blogspot.com, with my creations for February's Flights of Fancy.  This was a fun theme that again took me outside of my creative box.  

First up is my altered canvas - a first for me.  I painted, stenciled and decorated and I am hooked!!!

Next is this beautiful steamgirl just waiting to take flight to see where the day may lead.

A girl can never have enough cards and these steamgirls are so beautiful I just had to.

My art journal page - love these girls. 

My mini album started as a Mintay's chippie bird cage album - lots of room for pictures.

Steampunk challenge at Gecko Galz

 I have to laugh at myself - as the first version of this project had the wrong Steampunk owl for the September challenge. http://geckogalzscrapbooking.blogspot.com/p/gecko-galz-monthly-steampunk-challenge.html

So |I reprinted, was going to make a completely new collage and then when I laid the proper image down ... well I love the result.  Hope you do too!!!

Steampunk Love - Feb DT project for Gecko Galz

Steampunk love - great time to join the Gecko Galz Design team!!! Without further ado, here is my first DT project and I must say I am totally love with my Steam Queen. For my wall art, I utilized a picture fame I had for years as it was time for a face lift. I took the image of my Steam queen blew it up, added bits and pieces from the steam fantasies junk journal kit, used stamps from the cogs & heart stamp set, added some metal cogs and viola!!!

As the theme is steampunk love I had to make a few cards as well using the steam town girl papers- hope you enjoy the projects.

Along with medal cogs, wheels and bit from stash, I utilized the following products:
