It's much more fun to be making cards and doing some creating in my stamp room. Today is the day for Creative Card Crew's latest challenge. The theme for this challenge is Steampunk/Urban. I'm still learning about Steampunk, but it's a fun process.
Here is my steampunk/urban card.

I hope that if you haven't tried Steampunk yet, then you'll take a chance and come out of your comfort zone and give it a go. It'll be fun. Don't forget to hop on over to the Creative Card Crew Challenge blog and check out what the rest of the design team has come up with.

ReplyDeleteYes, stamping challenges are much more fun than work challenges! I can't believe you found such a perfect scene for your card! Your coloring really combines well with it, too. Very cool!
ReplyDeleteWell look at this. I didn't think of you as the "biker babe" type... but you did an amazing job with this card. Nice touches to add to the theme.
ReplyDeleteGreat steampunk card Maggie! Love those cogs and wheels on here.

Hi Margaret. was able to pop over using your link at Maxine D's, and pay a visit this evening. Your card is a darling use of the grunge look. Smiled at reading your anxiety at switching from WP to Word. I remember that feeling extremely well. Don't get too stressed. All the things you're accustomed to do are still there, just a bit different. Give yourself time and breathe easy, because YOU WILL get it. But I do understand your feeling extremely well. Been there, done that, survived it. You will too! TFS & Hugs.
ReplyDeleteStunning! Thanks for joining at Lacy Sunshine: Include a Window
