Steampunk Days are Back at Pixie Dust Studio!

I LOVE Kathy's Steampunk images, so I was thrilled when I saw this challenge! This image is "Steampunk Debutante". How did I make this project? I bought a $1 vase at the Dollar Tree. I printed the image on Translucent paper that I bought in a pack at Michael's. Then it was trimmed, and "glued" to the vase with clear nail polish. Then several coats of nail polish were painted over the image. I tied on an Organza ribbon (My Favorite!), added a flower, and a MS shell border. Tags are from Graphic 45. Easy Peasy!

 I hope you'll join us for this week's challenge. Make something with a Steampunk theme. You could win a Pixie Dust image of your choice and a Pixie Star Badge for your blog! Enter your project HERE for a chance to win. Need more inspiration? Check out the Pixies' Blogs! Their links are in my sidebar. Need some cute images? Stop by the Studio!  There are so many to choose from! We can't wait to see what you create!
