Believe it or not, I have NEVER made a steampunk inspired card, either with a digi or otherwise, although I have long been an admirer of the style.
So, when Sassy Design Studio came up with a Progressive Steampunk Challenge to celebrate 500 followers, I took one look at the first image that was used by the DT, and I just knew I have to play.
A bit of a stretch, as you only get two days to create with the image, upload it to the inlinkz there, so that you get the next image.
Here is what I made for the first challenge, using the image (called Steampunk Joesephine)provided. The challenge was to use metal embellies.
Promise you won't tell my hubby, but the metal embellies didn't come out of my craft room ......
And then last night I got the next image (called Steampunk Amelia), and the challenge is to use clocks and gears ...
The 'gears' are acrylic jewellery making parts, and I sewed them onto the card using invisible cotton, the kind I use for my bellydance costume beading. I added some self-adhesive glittery corners to 'contain' the design.
Over on PCP, at the Sassy Studio Design group, there is also a Trivia question game going on. The question today was "What is a horophile?" and I have used that theme as my sentiment for an extra little bit of sassiness!
You can be sure that I am having such fun and I can't wait for the next image!
