Wolfsbane - Faery Ink

-
Hello everyone! I'm not sure this time around to whom the card should go.... Maybe we can have a little giveaway :)  Just comment here on this blog and I will draw the winner by my next inspiration blog post to whom I send this card :) I decided to play with the great Wolfsbane and somehow this image just screamed STEAMPUNK to me!

I went pretty monochromatic this time around again... seem to be doing that all the time right now!
I used my Steampunk botanica paper from Recollection.  I used my steampunk corner from Cheery Lynn and my gears dies also from that company.  I also played with my large circle dies.  All the edges were distressed with some Vintage photo distress ink.

 And here's a closer look at the digi that I colored with my copics.  She was just a joy to color!  The sentiment is from Create with TLC

I'm entering this little card in the following challenges:

  1. Crafting by designs - anything goes
  2. Fab n funky challenges - Lots of layers
  3. Ikes world challenge blog - More than one image - there's an image with the sentiment so I think that should count... hope so.... :)
That's it for me for today.  Hope you have a great Thursday... here it will SUCK having my Mammography....   HATE HATE HATE having them squished like pancakes....

Hugs

    WOAH sometimes I find steampunk too brown but my goodness you have shown me how to do it properly, that's got to be a professional level piece.
