Steampunk Artist Card by Ginny Nemchak

Hey there Peeps! Dropping in today to share a tag I created with a steampunk style with gears and bulbs and a fabby artist stamp.

I stared with a selecting the chippies.....Steampunk Light Bulb Shapes Set.

Gave them a base coat with Gesso...I used a makeup aplicator.

Some of the chippies have been finished with Perfect Pearls Mist in Bronze, Art-C Gold and Silver Metallic Paint, and BoBunny Chocolate Pearlescents.  Allowed to dry and edges inked with Memento Ink in Black. I also used a Pitt Big Brush to add additional detail and a Finnabair stamp.

Allow to dry completely and add a layer of heat set gloss embossing.

Now for some fun layering of the chippies, flowers, ribbon and trims....

I snuck in a Miniature Book Plate with a section of the Altered Pages Stamp. This chippie was finished simply with gold glittery embossing.

Chippies all layered up over the edge of the Triptych Arch frame with a coat of flat black acrylic.

I'm using Stunning in the Coture Collection from Graphic 45 for the background. There are also some Shabby Chic Metal Clock Keys and Door Plates for accent.
