Leslie Rahye's, A Very Fall Steampunk Blog Hop

Welcome to my post for Leslie Rahye's Very Fall Steampunk Blog Hop!
HELLO!!
My name is Becky Voth & I am on the Design Team with Leslie over at Altered Pages!
In addition to being a mixed media artist & photographer, I am also 1/3 of a team that includes my mom & sister designing for our little Etsy shop - The Scrap-a-Teeny Girls!
I'm so happy to have you stop by today!
Be sure to leave a comment at the end of my post to win this little trinket I made just for this hop:
"Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious"

Ok, let's get to it!
I have two creations to share with you along the Steampunk line, although one of them is an old creation & has nothing to do with Fall, but it's one of my favorites!
First off, I created a fortified, Steampunk birdhouse just ready for the blustery winds of Fall!
I started by covering one of those $1 pine birdhouses from Michael's with foil tape from the hardware store (an idea I got from Tim Holtz!). Then I inked it up with some alcohol inks to "rust" it & then just started adding my Steampunk elements! Finally, I added some "rivets" with Liquid Pearls from Ranger. Hope you like it!



 (I have also done a paper mache dressform like this & you can see that post HERE)
Secondly, is an altered Barbie I did in my art group last year...
My Travel-Punk Barbie
