Got Steampunk?

Third Coast Rubber Stamps

WS-186-BB - Got Steampunk?

CO-276-EE Solid Single Gear Sm

FA-520-H Clockworks Light (masked background)
It's time to catch up with rubber stamping art projects. Here's a fun card with some of the Third Coast Rubber Stamps newest images. I used a bit of Basic Gray paper. Stamp the Clockworks image, a medium sized round stamp, on some scrap copy paper, cut out image to make a mask.Stamp the image onto your designer paper, cover image with one of the masks, and stamp the image over and over, masking as you go, to create a layered effect. This is really easy to do, especially with a simple shape. Works well with complex images, also, just a bit more cutting work.
Stamp Single Gear onto vintage business labels, layer onto striped paper, cut out scanned vintage photo image. Attach to card. Stamp "Got Steampunk" tear edges, attach to card. Attach small silver circles from Hero Arts.
