On the forum, every month we have a guest designer who sets a challenge.... this month's guest is KATHY, who has challenged us to create GREEN STEAM PUNK......
I have reused a 10''x12'' canvas, and loads of recycled stuff..... the birds and bug are die-cut from cola cans, the cogs from the thick card on the back of paper pads, the black flowers from packaging..... the embossed metal strip is from a window blind. The tissue i stamped on is from a shoe box....so not only is this a green coloured piece it is a GREEN piece. The stamped image is from DE-STEMPELWINKEL.
Have fun hopping.... come and check out the forum..... its a wonderful group to belong to.
I shall enter the following challenges......

    BlackDragon this is awesome. I love all that green with the dark colors. that steampunk image in the back is cool. I like them ol steam engine looking steampunk pictures.My neighbor growing up had one that turned dry corn into cornmeal it was awesome to watch. and very loud. loved it. this project remind's me of that.
    Thanks for the lil trip down memory lane.
