Edward in a Bubble


I have made this for the challenge at Bulle d'artistes Atelier following Frankie's example.

If I understand correctly (and my French is none too good!) the challenge is to produce something the size and shape of a CD but not a CD and this week's challenge is to use altered coins.

I have used an old penny of King Edward VII from 1906. He was the son of Queen Victoria and the great-grandfather of our present Queen and he had a bit of an eye for the ladies!!

I have used an image from The Sum of All Crafts, which I mirrored and tinted in PSP, a background from *spark*your*imagination and various embellishments from my stash.
