What is this blurry strange thing? Well, it's a sneak peek of my circus page for a collaborative book some of us are doing at ATT. There's always a lively discussion about Tim Holtz's Cirque stamp set. Much as we love All Things Tim, many find his clowns to be, well, creepy.
I'm one of them, though creepy can also be interesting. At any rate, I jumped at the challenge and have been busy creating 17 pages for this book. It hasn't been easy, but I'm getting there. I'll post full pictures once our pages have been swapped out.
Here are a few more blurry teases:
Yes, that is some of Tim's film strip ribbon on the side. And you do see a clown shoe. That's all I'm sayin' for now.

I can't wait to see the finished book. In the blur the clowns do look creepy.
Hi Eileen -
Ok, I disagree with Scrapping Mom. I think you clowns look cute. The one at the top with the little curl, well to me the poor thing actually looks worried. Maybe this is his first performance and is afraid people won't like him? Folks, even a clown needs love!
I can't wait to see what you've put together Eileen.
