Time is shooting by and here we are again with our second challenge over at Fantasy Crafters.
Our sponsor for this month is Crafts and Me and the prize is £10 voucher to spend at the store.
I chose Steampunk Odyssey as adore anything Steampunk and thought she was a very sassy lady - just my thing!!
I coloured her with my Promarkers and a silver gel pen for her wings, dagger, buckles and the owl's eyes. Instead of fussy cutting her out like I normally do, I decided to use my Ranger Distress Crayons and add a smudgy background in brown and cream. I added the crayon and then smudged it along the edge with my finger. I did the same with a grey crayon on the purple card base. I used a piece of Cor'dinations cardstock from the Chocolate Box paper stack with deep brown on one side and purple on the other and ripped the edges so the purple would show and distressed the corners. I placed this first on the card base offset at an angle, then used a purple doily which I added just sticking out from beneath the image. To finish off the card I added three steampunk cogs from Jac's store Things to Alter.
I shall be entering this into the following challenges:
Classic DT Open Challenge - #05 AG
Dark n Daring - #04 AG Top 3
Worldwide Open DT - #13 AG

Two of my passions - cats and cards in one place. I adore creating cards, but also mixed media, pocket letters as well as other crafts and love meeting other like-minded crafters in the blogging community, and enter challenges online. I'm blessed to be part of four design teams that showcase wonderful work from their sponsors, and I love getting inspiration from You Tube and Pinterest, as well as seeing the talented works of those that enter the challenges on the challenge blogs I'm a DT member.
Fab creation Michelle, love the purples x
