Steampunk notebook

Hi there, crafty friends! It is Victoria here today. Can you believe it is May already?.. This month our theme is "Anything but a card", so I created a steampunk notebook for my husband - it was our 10 anniversary on May,3 and that is a part of a gift.
For making the cover I took two cardboard pieces 10*18 cm each, a piece of fabric about 30*20 cm, and also a piece of felt for softness. I glued the felt to the cardboard and then covered it with fabric, as usual. Then I coloured the fabric with red and brown sprays and covered it with clear gloss medium for waterproof and shiny look. When it dried, I set the eyelets and rings.

Steampunk Pendant

This time of year is perfect for sweet little sundresses and lower necklines, but I am always looking for some WOW jewelry to go with it for any occasion.  I had a Tim Holtz watch pendant that I was just itching to alter!




I added some embossing ink to the inside and added a layer of Clear Ultra High powder!  Once that was heated through, I added more to the hot powder and kept repeating the process until I had good coverage.    
 Gears, bird charm, and letter... Oh my!  I added Tim Holtz gears, watch parts, metal letter, and a metal bird charm in layers.  Every time I added one, I added more clear powder.   Finally, I added a sprinkle of Metallic Platinum Sparkle to create a bit of shimmer to the mix!  I love the look of resin jewelry but HATE waiting for it to dry!  The clear Ultra High is perfect because it dries so fast once you heat it up!  It's amazing for embedding items into layers.
 I had these jewelry pieces for awhile and the pendant was the crowning touch!  I will defini…

Steampunk Art Canvas Flies With the help of Powder

I can't hide it even if I tried, my love for Steampunk art is pretty strong. The combination of vintage and industrial together is inspirational for me. Maybe it is the contrast or perhaps the dreamy nature of it, but Steampunk is pretty darn cool. Hi Everyone, Erika Taylor here today to share with you a Canvas I created using So of my favorite Wow Embossing Powders. The Gold Rich and Copper Embossing powders are perfect to distress gears with and I love mixing them together to create a really unique look.


I also used the Wow Clear Gloss Embossing powder on the butterfly and drizzled a little more of the Cooper powder on top. Love this butterfly!!!


The final project is filled with glimmer and whimsy and I really am a fan of how it turned out. The gears are perfect thanks to Wow Embossing Powders.


Thank you so much for stopping by today and taking a look at my Steampunk inspired Canvas using my favorite Wow Embossing Powders.

Until next time
