A Desk, A Challenge, A piece of Art!

Right i don't want to alarm anyone but have you seen what day it is... Surely it can't be time to rummage in other peoples rooms already!!!
My desk hasn't changed too much from last week, a few things have been created between then and now.
 Some of which can be seen in the pic, {the rest in the posts below this one}
 Including my entry for this weeks Compendium of Curiosities challenge
 'Grungepaper flowers' pg 65
I didn't want to just stick my grunge flowers onto a card so decided to give it a bit of life. 
Plus i know Linda now expects nothing less than fabulous so i didn't want to disappoint lol!
......
Lots To Do challenge has a 'Butterflies &/or Insects' theme so i ran with that and this ickle spirit art doll was created...
She is Strength * She is Brightness 
She is a reminder to always stay strong, even when things seem bleak
& to see a bright side to life even in the darkest of times.
She has been created using not only the grungepaper flower head with friendly plastic face, but a peg for a body, and some metal & card for her butterfly wings, oh and a lot of patients lol
I plan to attach some form of hanging fixture so she can sit on wall somewhere.
.....
Right i must crack on, i have a ton of swaps i need to make a start on.. I hope to get round a few more desks this week, if i don't make it to you it's nothing personal honest, i just suffer with bad wrists so spending a long time gripping the mouse can be a real pain.. literally, but i'll do my best.
Have a creative day

My favourite view is of her is her insides, as it reveals her Heart
