Steam .......


The Challenge over at Country View Crafts this month is 'Vehicles' .......

I used stamps from IndigoBlu to make this Steam Locomotive card. The base is a 5 x 7 ins white card.

I started by stamping the locomotive on white card in Versafine black ink and this was heat embossed with clear embossing powder. I added some panels with a chrome Tombow pen. This image was trimmed and matted onto black and then silver mirri cards. I then applied this to a deep embossed brick background on brown Kraft.

I then applied a cream/brown wood effect background to the card base and layered the locomotive and matts onto this as shown.

The words were then stamped on white card in Versafine black and heat embossed with clear embossing powder. this was trimmed and matted on black card. This was then added on foam pads as shown.

Finishing touches were to add some metallic silver cabochons .....

  2. Stunning work Sid - love that the steam loco is so detailed, and that you left it to star on the central panel with only a wee touch of chrome. Wonderful sentiment also
