I am joining three challenges today: Cardz 4 Galz, Sweet Stampin' and Crafty Cardmakers. SS and CC both ask for a 'create your own background' and C4G would like a feminine steampunk card.
the background was created using a swirly embossing folder to create the panel and then shmooshing ink over it. I then added the three lattice die cuts (Marianne), the sentiment tag (Apple Blossom) and steampunk butterfly (Robert Addams) - the latter was cut twice, once in plain brown for a 'shadow' and then in a bronze cardstock to which the photo does not do justice! The bronze butterfly is only affixed at the centre so the wings are free. The sentiment is so old I am not sure of the make, perhaps Hobby Art.
See you tomorrow!
I adore this wonderful steampunk butterfly - so pretty and the filigree background is fab. Thanks so much for playing along with our Steampunk challenge at Cardz 4 Galz, Deborah, DT.
