Less Steam More Punk! by Nicky Cresswell

Hello lovely people, nice of you to hop on by.
So as you may be able to guess from the title the whole Steampunk wave has hit the crafting world and left me for dust.. 
Don't get me wrong the style is kinda quirky and usually that's totally me but i just can't get my head around it at all!  The best i could manage was this one ickle ATC...
And thats mainly coz i had the fab Inspiration Jar stamps to work with.
I stamped the coggy jar onto the base, Layered up a ferro coated grungeboard key with a couple of wing charms, a timmy gear and 3 photo anchors with a brad in the centre to create the propeller. I then used some green stazon to stamp the plain jar onto some acetate, and i mounted this over the base to encapsulate the piece, held on by faux screw snaps.
So after many further failed attempts.. you could say i ran out of stream!! lol 
All that was left was the Punk!
 Some nice pinky paper, a couple of fab background stamps, {i used dogtooth and punk plaid} Some grungeboard skulls coated in Black and White Enamel Accents, a few stamped and cut out Stars with a bit of bling to finish them off and Jobs a good'en!

So is there a style you just can't master!!
Why not leave me a comment.. 
I'll pick 3 random winners, each winning one of the above ATC's.
I'll announce the winners next time i post which will be on the 7th Sept so plenty of time to enter.

Well thats all from me today,
 Have a creative weekend and i'll see you all again soon x
