Contraptions


Is it a plane? 
 Is it a boat?   
Why are the train lines nearly vertical? 
 Do they intend to use them as a launch pad?

No,  its  just a wacky pair of inventors taking their latest contraption  out for the first time.

Anyway, I made this for  the latest Random Redhead Challenge over at Gingersnap Creations.
GC 111 and the theme is Trains and Planes.
The first layer is embossed with  cogs and wheels and I used a Tim Holtz trees embossing folder on the main background.. The main  image is a Scrolls work stamp, other stamps are Creative Images.
The shading was  tea dye,shabby shutters and tumbled glass distress inks.

Thankyou for stopping by, I realy appreciate you calling.
