It's windy and my allergies have been making me a mess. I woke up with another smashing headache, and my first instinct was to crawl back under the covers and forget about the day. I'm happy to say that I didn't give into that idea. Instead of feeling sorry for myself, I turned on my favorite 80's channel from Boston and got to work on this printer's tray from 7 Gypsies. It seems that my favorite inspirations revolve around my passion for the UK. The background paper is also from 7 Gypsies. Some of the ephemera like the London Buses ticket are leftover from a trip across the pond. The spoon on the right came from Wales, and the coin in the little glass pendant is a Twenty Pence. I actually came home with a little spare change in my pocket. The sheep in front of the red phone booth is off a Christmas card that I received from a British friend. I tried to make a throne by adding some bling to a tiny chair. I tore my craft room apart looking for my sequins and never found them, so I used red Stickles instead. The large crown was a great find at Hobby Lobby. It was actually a knob, and I just took the hardware off. Each picture can be enlarged by clicking on them.
