Follow the Gingersnap Express using our Collage Sheet: A Steamy Trip to Gay "Paree"

This month, over at Gingersnap Creations, the theme is Steampunk--all month long!!! And here in our studio we are playing along!


Our pleasure is to doctor everything so that a visitor may walk away ready to create, and no fuss. As not everyone's keen on the digital world, we like to make certain our guests may choose how to apply their own creative mojo using our ephemera. We hope this will suit the discerning tastes of our visitors toward either path, the digital or hands-on approaches. Quite frankly, both please me immensely, so I may choose to alter by hand any of the digital works I may produce for online or elsewhere.


In case you are  not currently familiar with the goings on over at Gingersnap Creations, they host many a chance to get motivated, including challenges which bring out the best in the community they foster. Our response to their challenges was merely digital before, and, while they may choose to incorporate digital images from collage sheets and the like, they are most definitely a design team with a more hands-on focus. But what an appropriate focus! I like to stop by just to get inspired by gazing at all the beauty and playfulness I find at their team's blog. It's a beautiful thing. You should check it out!
Follow that Gingersnap link above for more steamy fun than you can shake a stick at!
By the way, I have at least one piece already in the works (well, the other 3 may pan out or not--art develops at its own pace), which I hope will be well received by the Gingersnap crowd.
Don't look for me to tell you what it's all about yet though! LOL
Happy Steamy Creativity!
