Morning all .... I'm back with my third make for Creative Expressions using Sam Poole's Steampunk Christmas Set....
so after last weeks bright an colourful design which you can see HERE, I have opted to go back to basics and use Kraft cardstock for this 6x6 card. All images have been stamped with Archival Ink (Jet Black).

I used a Black Pitt Pen to create the faux stitch look ....
I have used Couture Creations (Timepiece) Embossing Folder to emboss the metal sheet which was then inked with Acrylic Paint Dabber (Pitch Black) and sanded back to create a distressed look.
Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. x
