Wherever I lay my hat that's my home....
I needed a prompt for my art journal and found out that the challenge over at Simon says stamp is "hats" and they are offering the winner a great prize so check it out. I came across 2 interesting characters in the paper..the lady on the left is Dorothy Young who died last week age 103..she was one of Houdinis stage assistants. The other face to the right is Arthur Fellig who they called "weejee" a shortened version of ouija due to his ability to arrive on a crime scene so quickly...I bet they both had such fascinating lives and found the "hats" that fitted them in life. Besides these newspaper clippings I have used various paints, pastels and one of my fav "latin writing" stamps on the background. Hope your having a mad hatter day:)
