Here is my card:

I used the Steampunk Boy Bestie (img 131) and coloured him with Copics, Spectrum Noir and pencils. I fussy cut him, leaving a thin white border which I then inked with Vintage Photo so that it would blend a bit better with the background paper.

The papers are from a digital set called Steampunk 1 from Imagine That. I inked the edges, again using Vintage Photo. I decided to add Glossy Accents to the eye on the paper and love the way it turned out! The image was added on foam pads to give some dimension.

 Die-cut cogs were heat embossed with gold tinsel embossing powder and randomly adhered around the page. A sentiment was printed, die cut and popped on foam pads.

After taking the photo I decided to add Glossy Accents to the boy's goggles and timepiece:

I hope you'll pop over to the Challenge Blog and see the DT's fabulous projects.
We would love it if you'd share your work with us!

Thanks for stopping by today!
