Welcome friends,
our new theme at SanDees&Amelies Steampunk Challenge is
"Top Hats and Moustaches"
are two of the "ingredients" we all love about Steampunk art! So show us
your "moustached" canvasses, cards, tags, objects,....those top hats
sitting on...well, whatever you think they can sit on.
Anyway - we hope you are not too busy with crafting away on Halloween projects only and maybe find some time for a little Steampunk piece too this month.

How I made this
I started by embossing a piece of craft paper, I used the dry embossing technique.
my wire is a chipboard (also used as stencil),
painted with Fluid Acrylics Silver Metallic
then I used black Gesso
added Fluid Acrylics Quinacridone Gold as faux rust effect + Metallic lustre Silver
background was made with wire and cargo stencil + Distress ink as spray paint (+ water in mini mister)
up(p)s - I'm heavy on wire
squiggly handwriting :-)
crazy bird stamp from Tim Holtz was painted with distress inks
and Dazzling Metallics Rich Expresso from DecoArt
Happy crafting!

Haha, Kerstin, I had such a good laugh when I saw Mr. Heavy-Bird sitting on his wire...giggle. Such a cute and imaginative idea! You made my day! And I hope the wire will hold! lol
