Once upon a time....

there was a little boy named Jude who liked spiders and all things fun and spooky, not scary spooky but fun. He happens to be the son of Betty and Chris Roberts , who love all things spooky ,so it just seemed natural that Jude too would be on board. This image is part of the new release from Simply Betty Steampunk . Check out all the other new releases from our talented DT gals.
 Say hi to JUDE.





















One lucky person will win the  Digi shown below, leave me a comment ( with your email) about what is sitting on your craft desk now ! I will pick a comment at random Monday ( check back to see who wins) and you'll receive CHRISTIAN below.
Then you might want to take your image ,color it up and enter the Next Steampunk challenge .
Happy commenting!!!

Happy Steampunk blog hopping!

A beautiful fairy

This was a freebie for anyone who wanted to takw part in a SIMPLY BETTY  challenge. All you have to do ( when she offers them for free) is to color them up and make something with it then post it   HERE.   Easy Peasy, the only catch is that if you take a freebie you MUST use it for the challenge if you don't, you sit the next challenge out.  Here is what I did with this beauty and by the way this challeng along with the digi you have to use Orange , white , yellow and Black.

Just a little bit of what I enjoy doing , hope you enjoy looking.
