Steampunk -Taking Flight


This was a fun one to do. I used the New Steampunk stamps fromOxford Impressions That's right a whole new sheet of NEW Steampunk images. Go check them out there Uber cool!!
Any who on to my card. Its my second try at a Easel card. I thought it would be perfect for the Airships. I used a sheet of acetate so they would look as if there really flying. This also fits in with Hels challenge atInk On My Fingers
Not birds but they still fly. LOL.

What a fantastic idea to use the acetate. It creates quite an illusion of flight. Wonderful card, Lynn!!!
