Heavy metal and more....

Hi Everybody!

Thanks for all the kind wishes yesterday. I have bronchitis

and need to take antibiotics, but I'm hoping it will

soon go way and leave me! I am spending a lot of time in my

bed with my tablet for company, and am happy that I have

several ready crafted pieces, as I will not be doing anything

this week except reading and listening to music.

For Yvonne's 'Colour in my world' challenge at 

Art Journal Journey I have an A4 mixed media piece, using lots

of recycled materials, sewing, and a gold skin made from acrylic 

gel and gold metallic paint. When it was dry I stamped it

with Da Vinci's Leda (Lost Coast Designs), and sewed it to the 

various layers. The gold/white metallic layer was recycled

from a chocolate box. I also added some cheese cloth and

a white feather as 'headdress'. Some metallic ribbons and

pearls were added as embellishments. I am also linking to

Simon Monday Challenge, heavy metal:

For Tag Tuesday, Joan's steampunk challenge, I have another  tag, once 

again made with recycled card and stamps from Paper Artsy:

Some photos taken on my walk last Friday - Autumn

is coming:

And a bird's nest I found:

Have a great day, take care,

and thanks a lot for coming by!
