Hi Everyone, for my DT post at Cheery Lynn Designs this week I made a Valentine card with a Steampunk twist to tie in with their Challenge - Sweethearts ' Add a Heart '
You will see on this photograph how I cut my first layer
in red card adding the Gear dies, layering some to the front and some behind. I
cut a lot in half as new this was the area that was only going to be seen on my
card.
The next layer showcases two of our new dies which you
can position anywhere on your card, the choice is yours.
I added my steampunk corners to the sides, layering on
more Gears and adding a little Stencilling with inks onto my paper. See how the die cuts really pop mounted onto the red
card.
My Stampotique images were kindly given to me by my blog friend Donna from Inky and Quirky. I fussy cut the figures out and coloured with Copic pens - aren't they cute !
My Hearts and Arrows were cut out in Red, Black and White
Cardstock, you will see how I paper pieced the layers back together which adds
dimension and a shadow effect.
My sentiment was a sticker in my stash.
Thanks for stopping by I appreciate your visit and comments,
Enjoy your Weekend.

Usually I think of Cheery Lynn dies as very lacy feminine. Your card shows how versatile they are by becoming dark steampunk with the stampotique images.! I also like how your gears are peeking out at the sides and the heart with arrow.Fun card!
