Sketch Challenge Entry – Steampunk inspiration
by milliesmarvels
I have been playing with the gorgeous Echo Park Times and Seasons for the past few days and some lovely Sprocket dies I borrowed from a crafty Friend and I thought they would work really well to make a card using the Sketch. I had initially thought of using flowers where the circles but replaced them with cogs which gave me a great starting point for those hard to make Men’s cards.
1. I used a 6×6 card blank and cut a square of card to measure 14.5 square to place my squares of papers which were cut to 4.5cm square on. This is a great project for using up scraps. I inked around the edges of all the papers before placing them on to the black card. It’s a good idea to place all the pieces down on the backing card without glue to make sure you are happy with the arrangement before sticking them down!
2. I then stitched around the pieces with my machine before adding the finished black square to the card base.
3. I stamped the sentiment in the top right hand corner, I have flipped the sketch to fit my design.
4. I added an arrangement of cogs in the centre of the card to mirror the sketch and added a double embossed clock face in the centre topped with some game spinners. I finished with a metal cog and a couple of gems.

On my Lord, this is stunning, absolutely stunning! Moustaches seem to be creeping up everywhere at the moment, a new trend maybe? Where is the stamped sentiment from please? I love typewriter font! Thanks for sharing! Love, Clare x

The papers are fab and the cogs look fantastic
