Würfel/cube for Creavil

I haven't joined the Creavil challenges for a long time now. But as  I saw the challenge theme "cube", I thought it was so difficult , I had to try...

I used old slide mounts, glued and kept together with masking tape. I gessoed over it, coloured with dylusion inks and stamped words on each side; This dice/cube will now decorate our dinner table every sunday - the idea is that one person rolls the dice and the word he/she "gets" will start a small discussion around the table. We tried it today and we did get some good laughs!!!

So here we are - my contribution to Creavils no 46 challenge cube.

See you soon with another blogpost...

the whatevers no 5

May I proudly present Tram No 38 going from The Vienna City ring to Dornbach 17th district and back again!

Helmut was very proud this very first day at work! NOTHING would happen to this wonderful wagon as long as he was in charge. Sitting there in that front seat, high above the pedestrians, made him feel kind of important and if somebody didn't see him he would promptly pull the string and the clock sound would start. He enjoyed seeing how the people jumped aside by the sound, as well as he loved the children running after and trying to catch up with the wagon, as it started going after each stop.


So this was a very important day in Helmuts' life, as he stood there whith his collegue posing for the photografers....

This is my 5th entry to Nathalie Kalbachs' exciting story telling called "the whatevers". Great fun!
To join in or just to get more information , you can check it out here.

The background is made with different stencils and masks as well as gesso and texture paste and later coloured with dylusion and disteress inks.
The stamps are from My Stamp Box and Kesi' art stamps. I doodled some strings and added this gorgeous washi tape from Scrapbook Werkstatt.

I wish you all a great, sunny start of the weekend!
