July/ August Summer Challenge - Steampunk Tic Tac Toe

Hi again,

May I introduce  

Captain Nemo and his fascinating under waterworld

and our new theme for the summer challenge at Sandee&Amelies Steampunk Ch.

Steampunk Tic Tac Toe

you can choice this elements in horizontal, vertical and diagonal line

I have choice the first vertical line Words/ Stencils/ The Deep Sea

I'm always fascinating from this red fire fishes (here Antennen - Feuerfisch) 

my Oskar ;-) is a little bit abstract drawn, but he has big silver eyes , 

which see in the wide world

the environment was colored with distress ink - mustard seed, fired brick

 on a background ( before worked with white gesso)

Captain Nemo and the eye are stamps from La Blanche  

(one of our sponsors in this summer challenge :-))

I worked on foil for a better contrast, the frame is aluminium foil, used a gear die and then embossed.

I used a coral stamp with Staz on Black stamped in white Gesso to create structures

before you must the gesso a little bit blow dry

this technique, where you can designed a new steampunk stamp 

- Two becomes one new -

with effect ;-)

you will see on our new Extra Steam Power # 3 on 7th August

for this great challenge we have three Sponsors!!!

and you will have 2 months time to show us your beautiful ideas !

 Hope over to our challenge blog to see
