Welcome to my crafting blog. After retirement, my husband and I moved to a beautiful location in the Okanagan area of British Columbia. I love all paper crafts including mixed media, journaling and cards. I also dabble in papermaking, photography, fibre art, and altered books. I am an active member of several card and mixed media groups and on the design team of several challenge blog. I love the world of blogging, it has opened many doors for me. My favourite quote is by Maya Angelou. “You can’t use up creativity. The more you use, the more you have.” I hope you join me in my search for my creative side. Thanks for stopping by!

Altered Bicycle Sprocket


Time for another challenge at Altered Eclectics this month and I decided to alter a bicycle
sprocket.   I found the sprocket at a thrift store and thought it would be fun to alter in 
a steam- punk theme. 

My steam punk lady is an image from Kenny K Downloads.  I coloured
 the image with Copics, added a die cut Tim Holtz clock, chip board clock, metal stars and dragonfly and die cut gears and clogs.  

Here is a closer view. 



Hope you will join us this week for this challenge.  Remember to pop over to the Altered
 Eclectics’ blog to see the inspiring creations that the design team have created to inspire 
you.  Thank you for stopping by and have a creative day.
