SPA - Steampunk

Hi everyone, I hope you all had a good weekend. The theme for this weeks Sunday Postcard Art challenge is Steampunk.

I used distress ink to colour the background. The stamps used on the background are Graphic 45 and 7gypsies stamps. I stamped the main images (Graphic 45) onto the card to place them and then I stamped them onto white copy paper, coloured them with pencils, cut them out and adhered them over the stamped images on the card. I added some wash I tape.

Thank you for visiting, you’re all very welcome. xxx

Steampunk Tag

Steampunk is the latest theme for this weeks Go Tag Thursday challenge.

I wasn't sure if I could get a tag made in time, I went to my Nephews wedding on Sunday and my Father-In-Law was taken into hospital on Monday so I've not had much time for crafting.

I coloured my tag with Distress ink and stamped some cogs and some number charts. I stamped the man onto tissue paper, cut him out and glued him to the tag. I added some tissue tape.
I stencilled the Sweet Poppy steampunk dog with modelling paste and when it was dry I cut it out and used my finger to spread some Treasure Brass over it. I glued it to the tag and added some cogs and chain from his collar to the mans hand.
Stamps used.
Stampers Anonymous - man and numbers.
PaperArtsy - cogs.
7Gypsies - clock.

Thank you for looking.

Steampunk Deco Pages

I'd like to thank my new followers for following me - I hope you enjoy looking at my work.

Today I'd like to share with you the two pages that I made for Wendy in the KCUK deco swap - her theme is steampunk.

I used Distress inks to colour and stamp the background. I stamped the flower onto gold metal and embossed it then cut it out and attached it to the page with a game spinner and brad. The light bulb was stamped onto card, I cut it out and covered it with glossy accents. I added a few metal cogs.
The stamps I used are
PaperArtsy for the background and flower.
Stampers Anonymous for the three gents and light bulb.

I used distress inks to colour and stamp the background. For the glasses I stamped the image onto white card and acetate - I cut them both out and adhered the acetate over the stamped image. I adhered them to the page and added some chain. I embellished the page with cogs and some gems. I stamped the words and cut them out before adhering to the page.
The stamps that I used are
Karantha stamps for the background and main images.
Stampers Anonymous for the background.
7Gypsies for the background.

Steampunk Christmas

The Sunday Postcard Art challenge this week is It's a Steampunk Christmas.

For my postcard I used a mixture of Gecko Galz images and CraftArtist digi kits.

Steampunk Card

Ive gone all steampunk this week for my Creative Expressions DT card. I've used Sam Poole's Art Sayings stamps together with the Eco Green Steampunk Accessories 1 stamp set.

I covered a card blank with some blue paper and stamped some of the Eco Green stamps over it with walnut stain Distress ink, then I distressed the edges and edged with walnut stain.
I adhered some aluminium foil to a piece of card and embossed it with a Texture Fade, then I covered it in black acrylic paint and wiped of the excess before it dried. I then coloured it with ultramarine and timber brown Stazon. I coloured the main image with stormy sky, vintage photo and walnut stain Distress ink and wrapped some wire round it. I stamped a couple of the stamps onto the aluminium covered card with black Stazon, cut them out and adhered them to the card together with some cogs, game spinner and the words.

Steampunk Hanging

I started of by painting some burgundy corrugated card with orange and white acrylic paint, then I coloured some white card with tattered rose, antique linen and dried marigold distress ink using the direct to paper technique, I stamped lots of images on top of this using broken china and tea die distress ink and black archival ink. I cut out three images from a piece of Graphic 45 Steampunk Debutante paper, then I attached it all to the backing card. I added cogs etc and wrapped some wire round a pencil to get the curly wire.
The stamps I used are by Katzelkraft and 7 Gypsies.
I'm entering this into Simon Says Stamp and Show some metal challenge and Just For Fun steampunk challenge.

Steampunk Pendants

I thought I'd show something different today. I made this pendent at a jewellery workshop a couple of months ago. It started of as a brooch but I decided I'd prefer it as a pendant so I added a hangy thing at the top.

 It was my friend Alison's birthday this week so I made her this pendant for her gift. I added a cord to finish it of.

I didn't like this one very much when I made it and was going to pull it apart, but the more I looked at it the more I liked it.

Steampunk Pendant

I made this pendant in May for a friends birthday. I put a memory frame onto an Artistic Stamper cogs stamp and poured melted Cosmic Shimmer UTEE into it. When the UTEE cooled down I attached metal cogs and a few gems to it.
