Steampunk Saturday {Sunday}

Hello, all! Well, my homework has once again gotten the better of me and I missed posting yesterday's Steampunk Saturday layout because I was busy trying to write a paper due on Monday. Not only that but one of the circuit breakers for my house broke and I spent all day yesterday trying to figure out how to replace it! I'm so glad I have an electrician cousin living near me; he's coming over some time today to replace it.

Now on to my project! I used the Studio L3's Grungy Monday technique for this past week on this and I must say that I am completely happy about the results. Now in his technique, Tim Holtz describes making your own foam stamps and that is what I did (I used my new Vagabond!). The fun part is that I've been looking for gear stamps and the ones I've found are either not to my liking or too expensive. Now I have some that I love!

Steampunk Gears Foam Stamps.

Making Memories Layout. I used the Matte Medium Resist Technique from Tim Holtz to create the background, along with Bo Bunny Timepiece Paper and Embellishments, Thickers, Distress Ink in Vintage Photo, and some 7 Gypsies Gears.
