Time for some Steampunk

Today I received the lovely "Vintage Trinkets" from finnabair's wonderful "sunrise sunset" range for Prima and had to do at least a small project for a start.




There was also a scrap left on my table that came from an embossing experiment with a cogs and gears embossing folder, some distress stains and clear heat embossing afterwards. A left over piece of acetate from some packaging material...that led to this ATC I stamped with some of my favourite images from Oxford Impressions (using StazOn to stamp on the acetate).

Why Steampunk? Because I love cogs and gears, everything that has to do with the Victorian age and metal looking surfaces. Aaaand because there will be an announcement here tomorrow that will have to do with Steampunk as well. So check in again tomorrow for some exciting news! :)


I am entering SSSS's "metal-ology" challenge with this ATC.


Happy crafting!

    Oh well now we're as excited for tomorrow as we were to see this wonderful ATC on your blog, what great work you've produced here. We do love everything Steampunk, and have some stamps on that theme, but never seem to do anything with them.

    A fabulous little piece - LOVE the image on the acetate, and very envious of your Finnabair bits and pieces (I've been exercising willpower, but I don't know how long it will last...). Can't wait to hear your exciting Steampunk news!!
