SDC13: Wings, Wings, Wings

I decided it was about time i joined in with the Stampotique Designers Challenge
I've been meaning to take part for weeks now but just never got around to it, till now that is.
The ever so talented Effie posted about a slight alteration she made to the Timmy bird cage and i thought it looked so cool I just had to try it out.
I've used 'girl with heart purse' who i coloured with copics, added padded silver wings too and then placed next to her altered cage home.
The blue flowers are grungepaper and if your heading off to Stevenage today for Stamperama, head on over to The Artistic Stamper stand where the lovely Hels will be doing make and takes {of these very flowers i believe} Sadly i'll be hard at work while you're all enjoying the stash frenzy, I am of course willing to except any gifts you feel you need to buy me in lou of me being able to attend rolf.. well a gal can try can't she! But seriously I do hope anyone going has a fabby day.
Anyways back to the tag which I finished using my trusty dymo for the words.
And thats your lot.
Oh look i totally forgot...Durrrr... The background was a dusty concord/perfect pearl spritz mix, sprayed onto a kitchen towel and then dabbed all over the tag, a lace border stamped down one side in broken china.
 Righty that really is your lot now..
*Happy Creating*

Mabel Mini Domino Book

You know i just can't put down the fab range of Mabel stamps from The Artistic Stamper {more coming in nov}
But seeing as i'm really trying to get back into the altered side of my life i thought i 'd again combine the 2 so i altered a couple of dominoes and made them into an ickle book!

I actually coloured the dominoes and the images with my copics, i wasn't sure if it would stay put on the dominoes surface but i let it dry well and it looks great, i was thinking about a coating of some sort but am scared of ruining it.. any suggestions of a good spray varnish anyone?? dont want something that i have to brush on in case it smears the images.

{sorry for the poor quality pics, t'was bad lighting when i took them}

Playing with Metal

...
I almost forgot about this, it's a little something that started out one way and ended up another!
Its a metal and canvas covered notelet necklace.
It was s'posed to be a mini metal book broach!
I guess you cant help how the mind wanders when creating lol
