THE THREE MUSES

Bev chose SEASHELL as our theme this week and that reminded me of .... I know you won't believe me but I'll tell you anyway .. the strange sight I glimpsed from my bedroom window the other night.  No I can't tell because words fail me!

TAKE A WORD

Our word for inspiration this week at Take a Word is POPPY which took my train of thought down the route of remembrance and so here is a tribute to Maurice my great uncle who died during the second world war.  He married his sweetheart prior to returning to his regiment for what would be the last time.  So he left a wife and a son he never met.

Thank you for looking.

DIGITALMANIA

SHE WENT UP UP AND AWAY

The challenge at Digitalmania this week was to take inspiration from the work of husband and wife team Angie Sullins and Silas Toball.  This is my interpretation on their Living Out Loud series.

THE THREE MUSES

GLADYS AND THE STEAMPUNK FANTASY

This is the story of Gladys, a real live articulated paper doll, who wants more than anything to be a steampunk princess.  She trawls the charity shops (also know in some parts of the world as goodwill or op shops) for suitable clothes and accessories to realise her dream.  Her friends seem able to achieve the 'look' but so far Gladys has not ... hence her glum expression!  May be one day!

TAKE A WORD

SHE WAS VERY IMPORTANT

We have MANNIQUIN as our word for inspiration at Take a Word this week and that reminded me of the one I came across last week ... a VIP if ever I saw one!
