Altered Pages Headdress Challenge - Steampunk Rose

Hi Everyone....

Remember a couple of weeks ago I posted a few sneak peek photos of an upcoming challenge at Altered Pages?   

Well I can finally reveal the challenge and my entry!!!

(Mom actually guessed it correctly!!)

The Challenge:  

 

Create a headdress!

 

First members of the AP DT are going to make a headdress - the readers get to vote for their favorite and that person wins a goodie. 

THEN - YOU and all the other AP friends get to make and enter a headdress and the DT will vote on a winner and that person will win a goodie :)

To Vote for your favorite headdress hop on over to the
Altered Pages Challenge

 (Voting starts tomorrow - 9-18-12)
 

Sounds like fun huh??

What is a head dress?  

 

Per Merriam-Webster :  an often elaborate covering for the head.

 

Leaves it pretty wide open for interpretation huh? 

Your imagination can run wild with all of the options out there...

and so I ran with it and created this....
