Just in time L.T.D...

Think I'm just in time to join in this weeks challenge over on Lots To Do
The theme is Metal
Having seen the piece that Sam did, i was a bit of a copy cat as it reminded me of an article i had seen in the Feb Craft Stamper that i too wanted to try.

I love the distressed look you get when you tear corrugated cardboard, and used this as my base, i had an old stained dry wet wipe that i added some stitching to and the glued to the board, tore a bit of bubble wrap and attached it by making holes and threading some fibres on one side.
Then i embellished with the letters A R T all done in metal, and a few other random things like a Stitchel bird stamped on canvas and cut out, some tiny puzzle pieces and a face moulded in UTEE, to name a few.
I was just playing really and this is what came out of that play session...
I like to play, it's good for the soul!

I think that this is definitely a mixed-media piece- looks like nothing is safe in your house! It looks fab, too- I love the letters the best.
