Hi Folks
Its time for another challenge at TioT, and this time we have chosen Inventors/Inventions, and as we love to see creativity, it could even be your own invention!
For my piece I decided to make a wall hanging, I am busy 'updating' one of DDs redundant pin boards and this will 'feature', not sure exactly how I will adhere it, so I have included two eyelet holes at the top for chain/wire or clips.
The quotes and 'inventors' are Tim Holtz and the gent displaying the 'prototype' is from a Chocolate Baroque stamp plate. The embossing folders are TH and Spellbinders.
I do hope you will join us this fortnight, and should you need any inspiration, my fabulous teamies have certainly excelled themselves this week, so please pop over here and take a look. Don't forget, our April sponsor is Genuinely Jane Studios
I am entering this at
Make it Monday - Anything Goes
Crafty Catz - One for the Boys
Stamping with the Dragon - Steampunk
Aud Sentiments - For a Guy

Thanks for your lovely comments on my blog. You're right, I can't find anything now I've tidied up. I have found a shed load of stuff I'd forgotten I had though. It's like Christmas all over again!! Linda xx
A fabulous creation Avril.. with some wonderful inspiring words too... I remember my mum always used to tell me I had a very vivid imagination (I think when I was exaggerating something!)... but it didn't get me too far, did it?? LOL!
