Sea Call DT Steampunk

Welcome!

Our June challenge is, as usual...

 We welcome all types of projects (except digitally created) and encourage everyone to join us each month, whether this is your very first make, or you are an experienced maker, and share your creations. Show us your tags, cards, canvas, Artist Trading Cards/Coins, art journal, altered objects - whatever you can imaging that fits our steampunk/industrial theme. We are in awe of your creative imaginations and use of materials, and look forward to each challenge to see where your creative muse took you.

I was inspired to create a wooden sign in mixed media Steampunk style
 with one of my favourite themes 'Under the Sea'.


I worked with the Maxi Mould 'Seaworld' and a texture soft mould from Stamperia, black gesso, texture paste, rust effect paste, metallic waxes, grey board, embossing folder, chipboards and cheesecloth.

Tips & Tricks


 I used only some individual pieces from the soft mould, cut out some 
cardboard embossed pieces and glued all to the edge of the board

texture paste was applied to the remaining areas


two single octopus arms made with  air modeling clay


all covered with black gesso

after drying the colouring is done here with Rust effect paste and Metallic waxes


some close up's










 My  teamies at SASPC have come up with many

inspiring and different versions
on this Steampunk/ Industrial  challenge.

We are looking forward to see your new creations! 

 

  Happy Crafting!
