Steampunk Valentines

Hello everyone,  I hope you are doing well.

I have two designs to show today using Chocolate Baroque's fabulous new Punky Hearts set.

The card above has a batik painting look to it (at least to me it does).   I used Sapphire Distress paint in the background.  I stamped gears from Steampunk Butterfly with Sapphire & Mahogany Distress Inks.

Next I stamped the roses with Cobalt Archival ink and bleached (using bleach, water & brush and blotting with a paper towel roll) where I wanted to paint.   I used Distress Paints to colour and highlighted a little with a white Gelly Roll pen.   I embossed with a cog folder on the white mat.

 And below is the large steampunk heart from the fabulous stamp set:

I created the small background with Tea Dye, rose and Bronze Distress Sprays.  I stamped using the hearts with Walnut Distress Ink and painted with copper acrylic paint and a harlequin stencil.

The large heart was embossed with copper and painted with Tumbled Glass and Broken China Distress ink (using water and ink on my craft mat).

The large background was created with Broken China Distress Paint and stamped with a fragment from Harlequin Fragments with Broken China Distress Ink.

My husband likes both of these designs, I think I'll give him the bottom one for Valentines Day.

Thanks for your visit and have a great day,
Shirleyx
