I'm so loving the challenges at Smudgy Antics and this week's "Time Stands Still" really touched me. Been working on this one for awhile, smiling all the time, lost in a memory. I've used Smeared Ink's romantic Dance with Death 2 drawn by my HDH teamie Ike. LOVE it! The fussy cutting, not so much. LOL But I really, really, REALLY wanted the dimension here.
The fab DP is from the DCWV Tattered Time Stack. Sentiment is computer generated and inked with distress. The mini gears are from Tim Holtz. Hopefully you can see the dimension a bit better in this shot. Just sort of squeaking this one in, but it was a labor of love.
Can you remember that perfect moment when time stood still? Mine is forever etched in my mind, my heart, my very soul.
Oh, and BTW.
