Dream

Good Morning!

I tried my hand at 'steampunk' although quite fun to try I feel like I should try again....and again.

This will be entered into the Challenge at  Simon Says Monday, Steampunk.

Using the Stampin' Up Detailed Dragonfly die I cut it once from this heavy card stock I have in my stash and then again from Walnut Hollow Yellow and Orange Aluminum.  I then adhered the 2 and dabbed paint all over the top of it. Adding lots of different Embossing Powders I heated it.  

The paint bubbled up beneath the powder when heated and created this awesome texture.

Tutti Designs Stitched Tag die cut 3 times and layered.

I also created a stencil using stencil paper, a thin plastic 

and a Memory Box Distressed Windham Collage die, which I used Embossing Paste on.

I also used a random foliage stencil in my stash.

Amalgam Black and Old Olive inks.

Black paint splatters.
