Sexy!


It's time for another challenge at A VINTAGE JOURNEY.
Anne is our hostess and she has chosen the theme ALL ABOUT HIM.

Obviously this is not a TH image but I do think he would approve.  Another page for my TH grunge board  book that will one day be full of challenges from A Vintage Journey. "MY" man is painted with TH Distress markers - faded jeans -  gathered twigs - fired brick and wild honey.  The boots and cape have distress glitter in black soot and fired brick.  The flower was made using an eroded metallic technique found on page 44 in A COMPENDIUM OF CURIOSITIES VOLUME III.

I do hope you like it - I had fun making it and my husband really likes it.  He is grinning ear to ear! (I am too)
Once again, I am entering this make into -

A VINTAGE JOURNEY - challenge 6 "All about him"


Thanks for visiting and leaving such nice comments.  I do appreciate each and everyone!

  1. I think you've done a great job with this challenge. You've definitely conveyed that he's all about him. But since she obviously thinks so too, well.......lol I love the flower too!

  4. Hi Sandy well who can blame the girl for saying yes! He looks very handsome and brooding in his beautiful clothes and dramatic cape! I only hope he knows how to treat a lady! Susan xx

  5. She may have said yes, but I think she's going to have a high old time keeping tabs on this one - looks like he'll be leaping on his white stallion and rescuing maidens left, right and centre!

    Fabulous grungy background texture - that's so cool... what a great card! Thanks so much for joining us on A Vintage Journey!

  21. Hi Sandy,
    Cooooo, he reminds me of Adam Ant from my youth. . . . .think Adam and the Ants made it Stateside in the 80s. A swashbuckling prince charming indeed.
