Hi All, I have been AWOL for the last week but I have managed to make a bookmark for a friend as a birthday present which I have entered in the Craft room challenge
and a box for my D-I-L to be. The box is all antiqued with a blue tinge as in the box is the blue garter for her wedding day. I made the box so she can keep it as a keep sake. I used Sams's technique for image transfer and it work really well.
I also missed out on a JFF challenge, those Zentangles were just amazing I have visited the blogs and was just amazed by the work presented. This week it is the turn of Neet and a guest artist Marie of Dollydaydreams a great choice and I love the theme this week Marie. Those DT entries are just fab. For my entry I have used a mini canvas and used gesso on the which to swipe DIs in scattered straw, olive green and worn lipstick as well as some inka gold. I dabbed gold paint through sequin waste and then stamped my steampunk leaf onto tissue paper I then cut this out and used glue and shine to stick to canvas. I made the cogs and used the gold dabber and rock candy crackle paint. I then rubbed in metallic rubs added brads and wire. Hope you like it. Hugs Sandra XOXO

Beautiful work Sandra, especially love the box you've made for jenni..... counting down with you LOL.
Thanks for playing along with my choice for this week at JFF. Lovely to see your "coggy leaf" and the other cogs with Rock Candy on. Great idea. If you like crackle on things try Fresco by Paperartsy's crackle paint - amazing stuff.
