Sunday Postcard - Steampunk

Forgive me.  I have been icebound since Monday, we've had 5 inches of snow so far this morning, and I'm a bit stir crazy, which accounts for the silliness here.   This is mostly made from components from Maya at Scrapbookgraphics.  Mama's face is from Tumblefish Studios.   Background is made up of a couple of googled images.    Bear with me.  Spring is coming!  (If you think Daddy's balloon looks suspiciously like Marie's steampunk lady's dress, you could be absolutely correct!!)

    I think you've captured the feel of the Steampunk subculture beautifully, Bev. I just bought a book on making Steampunk jewelry, and see many of their icons in your art piece.

    Hope your snow stops and is gone very soon!

    Bev, this is priceless. I could almost say : three cheers for the snow if this is what you get up to - but I won't.

    At least you used the hot air balloon in its true context!! If this is silliness, I say bring on some more! Quirky and whimsical too. I love how your mind works, Bev. The steampunk baby just cracks me up and the lady in her amazing fur coat and wheels for legs is a true original.
    Seriously great artwork.

    Fabulous piece, Bev. I didn't notice that you and Marie had used the same bit of imagery till you said so. Hope the snow ends soon. We are having delightful weather, first in a long time.
