THREE MUSES 96 - STEAMPUNKERIE


This week Marie has chosen the very interesting theme of STEAMPUNKERIE for our inspiration ... a theme I love to play with.

Above, is Henry in his brand new invention, the steampunk horse drawn carriage.  You might notice he doesn't need to steer the carriage as it is entirely clockwork and in consequence Henry is able to pretend to read to impress his neighbours.

Below, is Albert, who has been tinkering in a completely different way and has invented the first steam assisted clockwork musical flying machine.  Such genius!

Albert is an ATC for a swap with Miss Peppa Pig as is the decorated envelope in which the ATC was sent.




Credit goes to FinecraftedDesigns and Marta Van Eck for their current Steampunk themed kits.

Thank you Marie for a great theme.

    Ann, your steampunk gents are sooooo suave and your artwork is mouth-wateringly scrumptious. Sorry I am late with my comment. I am away from home trying to spread myself between two families with illnesses. My younger daughter has been in hospital this week and her husband is away on business so good old Grandma had to jump in.
