So little time....
Over on Gothic Arches, this week's theme is steampunk. I have had so little time to create this week, that my early morning forays have been blog hopping and doing emails before starting my "proper job"! lol. But I thought I would love to do this, so gathered a very random set of stamps, including one of the new Tim Holtz's ( don't tell Mal , cos they are really for sale in the shop, and he will kill me for taking stock! ) . The clock and bicycle came from Purely Random, and the cogs are PaperArtsy. I have to say when I started this I wasn't going to use the bicycle, but it all came together by accident. Is this steampunk I ask myself? The other bits are idea-ology., and a couple of new bits from Vintaj, which wil be available soon. I made the background by spraying colour sprays from Crafty Notions, and then while wet putting a bit of bubble wrap on it, and allowing it to dry. I am so wanting to create, but time is limited this week :(
We will be at Stamperama this coming Sunday, so if you are thinking of coming , do drop by and say hello...I will be the one getting hot with a meltpot, and Mal will be the one with shiny shoes!lol
Have a great day!

Love this arch - the bicycle makes it!! See you on Sunday (just having some trouble sorting trains .... dratted engineering works!)
looks great - but what is 'steampunk'?
Hi Jennie, Love your Gothic Arch. Love anything Steampunk - wicked combination of the two!
Cool, love the bike wheels :O)) .... And...not a clown in sight PMSL
I think if "it came together by accident" then it's steampunk - kind of the point isn't it? Create something out of whatever you have on hand? Looks fab, love those cog wheels on the bike!
Looks great. I don't know about steam punk either .Love the bike.
Very clever Jennie, wheels are so good they fit in so well. Sadly I can't make it on Sunday, but I would love to send my shoes for Mal to polish, if he is in to that sort of thing!
Stunning steampunk arch, Jennie! Fantastic idea and design!

How come my crafting accidents always LOOK like accidents?? You've got the magic touch! Those sprockets on the bicycle wheels are just brilliant. Love this!!!
