Steampunked!

I'm having a bit of well-deserved fun tonight, Dear Friends! This is my submission for the collage challenge on the Three Muses Challenge blog! The theme was "I Got Steampunked!" and they asked that we add steampunk details to either the image of a famous person or to a famous painting. So, Our Patron Saint of The Tearoom Mademoiselle Lina Cavalieri has been steampunked glammed up a bit!

I have to thank the following for the images I used:
The Graphics Fairy
Percy & Bloom

Happy Birthday to a Friend!

A message to J from Purple Lips,

Happy Birthday, Sweetheart!
We love you and miss you!!
