This is my take on Vintage Sci-Fi, for Rebecca .. I hope she approves.   I couldn't find any robots small enough yet strong enough to hold the chunky, so I made my own version.  The rather oversized moon has a map on it , mostly obscured by the applied texture. The films are Metropolis .. one of the first to have a robot, and a lady one at that!; From Earth to the Moon; Forbidden Planet - with Robbie the Robot, who became such a star he appeared in several other films and TV shows!; and Lost in Space, with B-9 (is that a pun on benign, as in "do no harm"??)

These are the latest Chunky for bits!!  Top one is for Tuppence, 1960s theme ... a bit of this and that including, of course, "flower power" ! Bottom one for Kitty Crafts .. apothecary/potions & poisons!!  No bird skulls but a few others and some weird sounding poisons!  Hope they like them.

These are my contribution to Sian's Mini Canvas Triptych .. made for Suzy.  Her theme was shabby chic, tattered, wings, neutral off white with touches of pale pink and aqua.  Oh, and some words.  I hope she approves.

These are my contribution to Karen's Inchie Twinchie swap on UKS.  Although a digi scrapper, I have made these completely "papeer" ... a background of Distress Inks, liquid watercolours and pro-markers.  Every one is hand stamped .. I'm glad it was only three groups!!

These are the latest in my Chunky for ?? swap.  The top one is for JoPink -- Pastel Victorian.  I coloured some old postcards, used flower braid, lace  and some of the embellishments sent to me by former swappees!

The second one is for Elliebaby -- Butterflies.  I have used all sorts, feather, 3d, metallic charms and a pendant with some 3d elements.  These rest of flowers and trees ontop of a flowery background.

I hope they both like them.

These two are for the Chunky 6 swap.  The top one is for Lou .. Steampunk Valentine .....cogs, hearts, keys and wacky costumes!
The second one is for Rebecca .. 50 shades meets Shakespeare's Romeo & Juliet!!!  One side and end is romantic tragedy - t'other side and end is Grey!!
I hope they both like my efforts.

This one is my version of Gaudi .. for Gill  ... for my "chunky for bits" swap.I have tried to incorporate a bit of his most characteristic bits -- chimneys, mosaic, roofs and colour.  Hope she likes it.

This is my contribution for Karen's Mini-canvas Art swap.  A background of distress stains, liquid watercolours and promarkers.  Two stamps, one harlequin, one lady.  Markers, pens and stains on top to complete the layers.

I seem to be on a roll today ...

these are the two sets of three for Sian's Affirmation Postcard swap on UKS. 

As you can see, not all of them are exactly positive ... a sting in the tail, perhaps!

I very rarely do "paper" LOs, so I hope these will be acceptable.

These are two of my latest offerings ... the first is for an Altered Mouse Trap swap!!

It is for Allyj50 whose theme is Rabbie Burns.  So I have put piccies of one of the farms he lived on, his portrait and a mouse I sort of carved, with its ruined nest.  The first two lines of "To a mouse...." run round the edge.

Th e second is for the January Card swap ... Time/white space/Steampunk ... I hope Sian approves.

These are the latest chunkies for my "Chunky for bits .. " on UKS.  The top one .. "Flute" is for TeddySoo whose puddytat died recently after a long and happy life with her and the family.
T'other one is also cat themed .. for Xmasbaby.  She wanted Quirky cats, so I have used cartoon characters - Tom & Jerry, Sylvester and TweetyPie, Felix, Puss in Boots, Garfield and the Cheshire Cat !!   Both lasdies have received their chunkies and seem quite pleased with my efforts!  Great.

Two more from my "chunky for bits" thread on UKS .... Steampunk Christmas for Ally50 and Victorian Ladies for scrappyyo .  I must be doing something right as this is her second one!

Apparently the chunkies have arrived and both ladies like my offerings ..phew! I can breathe again.

Having made chunkies for Rebecca and Yolanda, I was really excited to be taken up on my offer of "a chunky for bits" by Jo and Susan - from Country View Crafts!  Jo wanted blooms/vintage/art and Susan asked for Male/time/fantasy.   So these are the results.The first one is Susan's .. based on James Bond -- how much more "male fantasy" can you get?? .. see how many stories/films you can find.
T'other one is a Victorian lady, Picasso's idea of an elegant lady and lots of roses.

I hope they like them.

Anyone like a chunky for themselves???  Find me on UKS as new2this.

This is t'other one .. for Gail whose theme was Victorian Christmas.   Once the tree was subdued into place, it all seemed to run smoothly .. and I think it came out quite well.

This is the chunky for Lou .. her theme is the Snow Queen.  By sheer fluke it arrived on her birthday ... and she liked it!!!  How good id that!?

Another one for Rebecca .. who has been very patient, waiting for me to do this one.

She had asked for Vintage Circus .. so I hope that is what I've achieved.  Enjoy!

This is my "Altered Sardine Tin" !  My swappe, LorraineS chose Smoke & Mirrors as her theme ... so my lady is being levitated by her companion!!  There are a couple of small mirrors - you can just see the diamond shaped outline of one of them - and the rabbit from the hat gives a clue to the trickery involved!!  It isn't quite as dark and sombre as this in real life .. just a smoky, swirly effect with Tim's alcohol inks.

You may have gathered by now that I LURVE making "Chunkies" !!  Well, I asked some friends if I could make them one, to their own theme, in return for bits and pieces suitable for making either more chunkies(!!) or other altered items.   Two of them, Rebecca and Yolanda were kind enough to take me up on my offer ... and these are the results.

The top one is Vintage/Steampunk for Yolanda; Rebecca  said she likes Sideshows/circus/gypsy fortune tellers or anything out of the ordinary.  So what did she get?  Houdini  !!  Hope they like them.

Anyone else want to take up my offer?

These are my cards for the October swap on UKS ... theme - Freaky!!   They are all digi .. using a Deviantscrap background and Octopode digi-stamps.

This is the lovely chunky Sara/Pinkster made for me for the halloween swap of UKS.  My theme was Light and Dark .. I don't really like Halloween so this was as near as I came!!  I think its gorgeous.
