Give yourself over: Dirty spring steampunk

today I have something Dirty to share with you....now get your mind out of the gutter its not that kind of dirty...its dirty vintage, but thats a good idea I'll have to create something dirty next :)

Today is the April Member Blog hop for Smeared n Smudged and the theme is Dirty Vintage so I created this!

he is one of the steampunk images from Simply Betty, I colored him with pencils then I stamped the gears and watches on the green paper and distressed the background made it look really dirty and added some lace but it was to girly so I burned one side of it and now I really like it!

now off you go hopping along here's the blog roll...leave lots of love :)
