I decided to have a little fun with a steampunk card today. I used the
sketch from the
Critter Sketch challenge as the basis for my layout. All of the stamps used are from Artistic Outpost. Since the August challenge at
Artistic Outpost is
anything goes, my card fits right in. The
Sunday Challenge at Ink on my Fingers is
steampunk, so I'm right on target.
I started my card by embossing a metal foil sheet with the riveted metal texture fade (Tim Holtz). I used ginger and black soot alcohol ink to distress it. I stamped and adhered the image panels and added a few gears and some number washi tape. And there you have my bit of steampunk for today.

Gorgeous, anything that has a train on it is going to be a big hit with me... love it! Thanks for joining in with the Sunday Stamper x
Oh, I just love anything with those rivets embossed on it, and this is fabulous! The train is one I've been admiring for some time at AO, and it looks great here...
