Hello all my crafty friends, I hope life is treating you well and you are finding time in your busy lives to get creative. I've struggled with no inspiration for a while since my move, but fortunately had a wonderful flow of creative energy over the Christmas holidays so got way ahead. So today I'm sharing my second make for the current Challenge at Country View Crafts.

I purchased a few plaques from a shop on the high street which often reduce their stuff to affordable prices suitable for alterations.

Arranged the elements and stuck into place, once dry I painted the whole thing with Paper Rust.

I built up the layers in places to add more texture

The woman is from Sheena Douglas, I used Inktense Pencils to give her colour. To finish I added treasure gold to edges and over the cogs etc.
Last look!
