She won't settle for ordinary

Happy Saturday!

What a beautiful day!

It has been an exhausting week--

I have been laid out with a

nasty virus, and had an asthma

attack that freaked me out. It

had been years, and I seriously mean years, 

since I had experienced one, and

I was totally unprepared for it.

I am still feeling the effects, but am 

doing much better now.

Thank goodness!

Anyways, onwards!

This week's challenge over on the

Hiding In My Craft Room blog

is: HIMCR #243 - Blending

And this week's sponsor:

 Lacy Sunshine!

The giveaway is 3 Lacy Sunshine images!

The Design Team were given 

a choice to choose their own images.

Let me say, quite a challenge---

so many darn cute ones!

I chose Mermella Steampunk Siren.

She is so gorgeous!

And this is what I created:

I used my new Prima watercolor confections paints--

they are so yummy...

Work like butter, I tell you.

I didn't really follow the lines, I just blended and blended 

with my paints...I like how

she turned out! :)

The sentiment is from a Prima stamp. 

The papers are from Graphic 45 

'Steampunk Spells' collection, 

and the gears chipboard are from 

Creative Embellishments.

I added copper Stickles glitter glue

in the center of the gears.

I also added a bit of silver and gold 

permanent marker along some of my

girl's design.

And that is it for me for today!

I hope to see some of your creations--

be sure to link up!

Until next time, mes amies, 

Be safe. Get crafty!
