THREE MUSES challenge "Rust"


Three Muses always pushes you right out of that creative box with their themes, and this week is no different. If any one knows me, then they know I love that old, grundgy, vintage look, so I had a real good time rusting up some goodies. Dug deep into my basket of T!m goodies and used his clock masks for the back drop on my canvas, Word stick "Time" and birdcage die cut which I just love.
The canvas, birdcage and dove stickpins got a good washing of rusting chemicals. These bird cages in all their rusted and patina'd glory will soon be for sale at our store "Studio Garage Band"

It's good to hear we Muses push you right out of your creative box, or we just wouldn't see little beauties such as this. You deserve a Standing Ovation from my corner.

Superb rust-themed artwork! I can see you love rust. It shows. It is amazing how many people have posted "rusty" pics this week - each one different to the next and all of them fabulous.
