There's a new letter over on The Craft Barn's Alpha Dictionary Challenge - this time it's E so I've gone for Engineer as I had some suitable stamps.
I've done the background green...think Emerald...but it's actually Mowed Lawn Distress Stain as it fits nicely between the dark & pink letter D and the lilac letter F. The diagram stamps are from Tim Holtz Steampunk set, the Checkerplate is from Kaisercraft and the Dapper Men are from Paperartsy. Whilst my other half is an engineer, you can't really depict them without their Victorian top hats can you? As always it's just finished with the dictionary definition and my E Thicker from the Platforms set.
Can't believe it's Monday and I've got my postcard done already. I'm guessing there will be loads of interesting words chosen this time...off to have a look. Thanks for visiting.

I haven't settled on a word yet, but I certainly like your interpretation of engineer. It's a real beauty and the stamped men always make me smile. As always, I adore your visual interpretation of your word, and the "thicker" you use, too.
