First of two inspiration designs...Steampunk first!

Hello again,

It's time to start our regular inspiration post for Slinky Tart, YAY!  I love being able to play with these totally awesome images, Tamara is so clever :D

As many of you know, Tamara closed The Stamping Chef at the end of 2014 and in January 2015 she launched her new shop and look and you can find all the images so far HERE

This is the first of two posts today, showcasing two different images by Slinky Tart....so, here is The Big Tease.  I love this one as it so easily lends itself to steampunk, which I adore!

Here's what I used:
Image: The Big Tease
Papers: I used a combination of papers, from retired set from The Stamping Chef and Michele R Designs to create a steampunk backing and insert
Embellies: You know me....junk!  This time it really is lol!  The black rose lace is off an old dress, the silver bits are from an old necklace (got to love teenagers and cheap jewellery!) and some string!
Top Tips: I distressed the edges to add to the aged look, use scissors if you don't have the tool, it works just as well.  On the image I used Debbie Moore's Metal Magic, its just amazing stuff and melts from underneath with the heat gun...check it out you won't regret it :D

Here's the close ups:

Junk jewellery can look amazing, hot glue gun and tweezers are used to stick it down...metal gets HOT!

Just pile it up!  Random works best!
