Steampunk

Here's an awesome image that was given away this month from The East Wind.  I used it to make a steampunk theme card using all gorgeous papers from Paper Temptress.  I also got a package of wonderful embellishments from the local jewelry department at my local Michaels.
The image is printed out on Neenah Solar White Classic Crest paper and colored with copic markers.  I layered it on Mica/Metallic Bronze.  Then I used a 1/4 sheet of Mica/Metallic Copper which I embossed with a gear/steampunk folder. (Doesn't Mica/Metallic emboss wonderfully?)  Finally I layered the entire card on a dark blue cardstock Blue Grandee Felt; which is a wonderfully thick paper and perfect for a heavy weight card that contains metal embellishments.
