Hi everyone!! It’s Tracey<\/a> here to share this masculine steampunk birthday card I created for our son-in-law. I’ve been wanting to use the Leaky Shed Studio Hot Air Balloon<\/a> for some time now and thought it would be fun to go steampunk with it. I’ve also used the\u00a0Watch Parts<\/a>, one of my favorite chipboard\u00a0sets!!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Tips and Techniques<\/u><\/i><\/b><\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
Often we think about molding paste being used with a stencil. Here, I’ve brushed Viva’s Graphite Special Effect paste randomly over the chipboard, leaving bits of raw chipboard showing through in some places, and other areas with thicker layers of paste.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The Leaky Shed Studio Hot Air Balloon<\/a> fit perfectly over this balloon from Prima’s Cartographer paper collection, which I fussy cut and adhered to the back of the chipboard. The “basket” is a jewelry finding piece from my stash. For a steampunk edge, I adorned with metal clock hands and mini gears. Some of them were a silver\/pewter color, so I heat embossed them with Donna Salazar’s Leather Mix’d Media Embossing Powder, which has a coppery metallic sheen. Others were copper and left in their natural state.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
The Leaky Shed Studio\u00a0Watch Parts<\/a>\u00a0were heat embossed with black embossing powder and while still hot and\u00a0molten, sprinkled with Leather embossing powder and reheated giving this rusty metal look.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
\"\"<\/a><\/div>\n
Another view of the gears. You can see just how much shimmer and depth this embossing powder technique gives.<\/div>\n

A close up of the top corner. I like to let embellishments hang off the edges of my cards.<\/div>\n
