Throwback Thursday - Steampunk Gears

Hello friends!  It's time for Throwback Thursday over at Our Daily Bread Designs and the feature for today is the Steampunk Gears Dies.  These dies are perfect for creating masculine cards, something I find challenging.

Creative Nugget:  The clock from the God's Timing stamp set was clear embossed on paper from the Vintage Ephemera Paper Pad which was then cut with a Pierced Rectangle Die and sponged with Distress Inks.  Large Banner Dies were used to cut coordinating papers from both the Vintage Ephemera Paper Pad and the Ephemera Essentials Paper Pad.  Distress inks were applied to Mixed Media paper.  The clock was stamped and cut with a Pierced Circle Die, the sentiment was stamped and cut with a Large Banner Die, and some of the Steampunk Gears were all cut from this sponged panel.  Additional gears were cut from black and brown card stock.  The banners were stitched to the card and the other elements were layered around the clock to finish the card.

To see more samples using the Steampunk Gears Dies hop on over to the Our Daily Bread Designs Blog.

This card will be submitted for the following challenges:
