Something a bit different...........................

after showing some of the projects that I have made in class over the last few years - Oldie for Friday, I thought it was about time I showed you something newer...............
I feel that it has been a bit of a 'cop out' on my part showing all the older stuff, but as most of my crafty stash is still in boxes (do I really want to get it out and then pack it away again when we decorate)?? NO..........................
I know I have shown you something similar to this but I did adapt it slightly and this is the card I made for our Son in March this year....................

  
I stamped the card blank with Versamark and embossed with gold emboss powder for this one to make it a little different to the previous male ones I have made........................




I just love trying to match the cogs so they look as they interlock, it is quite therapeutic...............






Ingredients used:-

Indigo Blu 'Yorkshire Dales' Gilding Flakes
Crafters Workshop Mini Gears Mask
CE Micro Beads
Sam Poole - Steam Punk Dreams Stamp (background gears)
SB Sprightly Sprockets
Sheena Douglas Festive E/F (for texture on the cogs)
Inka Gold Wax
LOTV Sentiment Stamp
Justrite Family Stamp




I hope you like.............

I will be back with another Oldie for Friday (hopefully on Friday) lol.......................if you are a regular you will know what I mean.....................

  3. I love this style but can never achieve it Mine just looks like a big fat mess Great idea for a male card that doesn't rely on sport

  4. Hi Gail, so sorry I haven't stopped by for a while - I haven't had time to blog lately. I absolutely love this incredible masculine design! The steampunk cogs look fantastic.
