Steampunk Masculine Card

I've been a bit quiet lately - I was totally swamped with work so no time to play :-(   Things are a bit more "normal" for now so I am back to my crafty distractions and still finishing up several card orders I received for a charity sale.

This is one of those cards - the buyer requested cards with no sentiment and a mix of masculine and feminine.  I chose this for one of the masculine cards but to be honest, it's cool enough for anyone!

The Layout is based on Mojo Monday # 251.  The gears is from a free cutting file over at the Free SVG Blog cut on two layers of kraft cardstock and then inked up and glimmer misted to try to get more of a metallic look.  There's so many layers going on here that it was perfect for the Hiding in My Craft Room challenge #55 - Layers.

  1. Like the layers & texture for this card. Thanks for stopping by my blog. I go to the JoAnns & Michaels in Frisco on Preston sometimes. Perhaps we could meet up there or somewhere in between.

      Great selection of a lot of different brands that you can't get at the big box places. They also do a lot of workshops, classes, make and takes, etc.
