Steampunk Cards

I have made a couple of steampunk cards from only two sheets of  backgrounds by Gecko Galz..  Steampunk is the type card or project that is the Customer Challenge this month.  Below shows what you can do with  only two sheets of Gecko Galz  designs.

Using Industrial Images

I really love all the industrial images that Gecko Galz carries,  Here is a  Steampunk card  using a few of their images.  I placed them on a grungy background that I made from designer paper.  The Dreams and Imagination sentiment is from a Tim Holtz book of sticker words.

Two Days Left

You have almost two days left to enter the Steampunk challenge at Lunagirl.  Karen has some great images that would be appropriate for any Steampunk creation.  Below is what I created using some of the images.  There aren't very many entries posted at this time so  you have a great chance of winning as she uses a random generator to pick the winner.  Let's see what you create!

Drunken Stampers' New Challenge

Drunken Stampers has a new challenge going .  The theme is Steampunk which is based on the movie Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow.  It runs from April 13 to April 19.  All of Drunken Stampers' challenges lately have been based on movies.

For this challenge I made an easel card using an image from Kenny K Downloads.  The  policeman was colored with Copic markers.  To give the card a  steampunk feel, I added some sequin waste under a star emblem embellished with a little blingy stone.   The sentiment "protect and serve" comes from the motto of the force.  The altered punched border is from a Martha Stewart punch. A clock charm in the middle of the base acts as a holder for keeping the card upright.  They are referred to as the Boys in Blue, thus the signage on the bbase of the card.

 

This card is also being entered in KennyK Downloads' easel challenge and the CDAC's Anything Goes challenge.

 

 

A Steampunk Christmas

Here is a little Steampunk Christmas ATC I made using a Christmas tree image from Octopode Factory.  I put it on a wild background that I had gotten off the net a couple of years ago.  The little reindeer is a piece of balsa wood which has been twisted into various shapes and curves.  The 25 is for Christmas Day and it is  two Bingo tokens.

I am entering this in Wicked Wednesday's Steampunk ATC challenge.

Steampunk Tag

I haven't worked with many tags lately so I thought I would create one today.  This is a little on the steampunk side.  The main image is by Octopode Facotry and the bird is by Stampotique.  This tag was done for the Gingersnap  Creations' Spicy Supply Challenge "Crimpers".  I had to dig deep into one of my stash drawers to find my crimper as it has been ages since I have used it.  The green scrape of paper is what I used my crimper on.  I think is adds a lot to my tag.  Additional embellishments used are a couple of Bingo tokens, a small dimensional flower and an old type hook and some rafia.

Below the picture of the whole tag is a closeup of the main image which I colored with Copic markers.
