It's Tuesday which means you've got Kathi here today to share a project with you. It's an "Anything Goes" week, so I created a Steampunk card with the Faceless Time Clear Stamp Set 1456, the Papillons Clear Stamp Set 1462, the Frise Pendentifs Clear Stamp Set 1461, and the Time Tinker Clear Stamp Set 1374 as well as the Cog Engine Die Set 125 and the Frayed Frames Die Set 26 — all by AALL and Create. The background panel and die-cuts were created with Steampunk Soiree Magical Pigment Powders by Lindy's Stamp Gang.
Here it is!
Use Tuxedo Black Memento Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko to stamp the focal image from the Faceless Time Clear Stamps 1456 by Autour de Mwa for AALL and Create onto a panel of Bristol paper. Heat set the ink, then color the image with Copic markers. Use a white gel pen to add highlights to the hourglass.
Use the largest die from the Frayed Frames Die Set 26 by AALL and Create to cut the image panel, mat it with black cardstock, and set it aside.
Cut a piece of 9" x 12" Bristol paper to a 4.75" x 6.75" panel (for the background panel) and a 2" x 12" strip (for the border and sentiment die-cuts). Place the strip onto a craft mat. Use a small spatula to place a pile of Yesteryear Yellow Magical Powder from the Steampunk Soiree Magical Pigment Powder Set by Lindy's Stamp Gang onto the craft mat. Fold a baby wipe and press the top part of it into the pigment powder. Drag the baby wipe vertically onto the strip of Bristol paper to start to a apply the Magical Pigment Powder, working from the outside edges towards the center. Dip the wipe into the powder and apply it again. Continue until the powder pile is gone and your Bristol strip is colored. Clean your craft mat.
Use a spatula to place a smaller pile of Canna Lily Burnt Orange Magical Pigment Powder onto the craft mat. Using a new baby wipe, press the top of the wipe into the pigment powder, then drag the baby wipe down the strip of Bristol paper to fill in the gaps. Continue to dip the wipe and drag it down the strip until the powder is gone. Clean your craft mat.
Repeat the above process using an even smaller amount of Tophat Teal from the the Steampunk Soiree Magical Pigment Powder Set to add some verdigris colors to the Bristol Strip. When the colors and blend please you, thoroughly heat set the panel and trim it in half.
Use the both dies from the Cog Engine Die Set 125 by AALL and Create to cut the colored Bristol paper strip. Flip the die-cuts over and color the back with a black Copic marker or sponge them with Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink by Imagine Crafts/Tsukineko. This step will edge the die-cuts from the back.
Place the 4.75" x 6.75" panel and a small scrap of Bristol paper onto a clean craft mat. Use a spatula to add a pile of Pocket Watch Pewter Magical Powder onto the clean craft mat. Press the top of a clean baby wipe onto the pigment powder, then drag the baby wipe onto the Bristol paper panel and scrap, working from the outer edges towards the center. Dip the wipe into the powder and continue to apply color to the panels. When done, heat set the panels thoroughly.
Pounce an anti-static tool/pouch onto the background panel then place it onto the base of a stamping platform. Position the corner gears stamp from the Papillons Clear Stamp Set 1462 by Azoline for AALL and Create facedown along the top left of the panel. Ink the stamp with Morning Mist VersaFine Clair Ink and stamp. Remove the panel from the stamping platform, add Clear Gloss Embossing Powder by WOW to the wet ink, dump the excess powder back into the container, and heat set.
Clean and dry the corner gears stamp. Place the background panel back onto the stamping platform and position the the corner gears stamp from the Papillons Clear Stamp Set 1462 along the lower right hand edge. Position the border gears stamp from the Frise Pendentifs Clear Stamp Set 1461 by Azoline for AALL and Create vertically along the bottom left hand edge. Ink the stamps with Morning Mist VersaFine Clair Ink and stamp. Remove the panel from the stamping platform, add Clear Gloss Embossing Powder by WOW to the wet ink, dump the excess powder back into the container, and heat set. Edge the background panel with Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink.
Use a nameplate cutting die and a small gears die to cut the grey-colored scrap of Bristol paper. Place a piece of low-tack tape on the back of the Bristol paper scrap die-cut to keep it in place and secure the scrap onto the base of a stamping platform.
Position the "Gear Up" stamp from the Time Tinker Clear Stamp Set 1374 by Janet Klein for AALL and Create facedown onto the die-cut. Ink the stamp with Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink and stamp.
Remove the die-cut piece from the stamping platform. Add Clear Gloss Embossing Powder by WOW to the wet ink, dump the excess powder back into the container, and heat set.
Use the nameplate frame die and a small gears die to cut a leftover scrap from the tinted strip. Use Nocturne VersaFine Clair Ink to edge both parts of the nameplate die-cuts, then adhere the sentiment die-cut onto the frame die-cut. Adhere the gears die-cuts to cover the holes of the nameplate.
Adhere the border die-cut to the right side of the background panel. Adhere the matted image panel onto the background panel as shown. Adhere the sentiment nameplate die-cut to the upper left of the background panel. Adhere the completed background panel to a 5" x 7" black card.
