Steampunk Box By Carol Fox

This box began its crafting journey as one of these pencil boxes. By adding die cut cogs and Verday paint it has become old and battered looking.

Finishing it off with some rusty chain and a mixture of found and newer objects it now looks completely different.

There is still time to enter this months challenge of Steampunkery, all the details can be seen on the original BLOG post.

Trick or Treat....

smell my feet, give me something good to eat.

This week, I've again used the Vintage halloween set from Artistic Outpost

This time, I've used the little boy from it to make two projects.... firstly, an ATC 

 secondly, a card :-)

I've made the backgrounds with a selection of spritzers and stamped with black Archival.

Diesel Punk Card by Annette Goatley (nettyscraftings)

Hi, am still hanging in there with Steampunk.  This time with a card, boring I know but its the best I can come up with.

Using the Artistic Outpost Diesel Punk Rubber Stamps, plus Paint Dabber and various Distress Inks.  I applied both the Dabber Resist  and Overstamp Techniques.

It doesn't look too bad does it............no don't answer that...........lol  Am sure you can do better.
Take care of yourselves, Hugs Annette x

Domino Jewellery By Carol Fox

I wanted to try the Verday paint on some dominoes. I then sealed the images under a layer of resin. before I applied the Verday paint around their sides.

I aged some of the charms from the shop with the paint too, once the patina was dry I gave them a polish and this removed some of the patina gave them a lovely finish.
I added a small bale to the back for hanging.
