MASCULINE..DT

 Hello everyone,

It is a masculine week with Little Red Wagon  this week and our lovely Doni is hostess and this is her theme, which I love by the way..

I love making masculine projects as equal to flowers and frills and especially Steampunk or vintage..


and I started this one, as most, with ripped up paper scraps [it goes further when ripped] and my matt medium from Ranger..


until it was all covered and I had a focal point, sort of,
right in the middle.


As matt medium acts as a barrier I could then use my big brush markers to add shading..


and went quite silly with it..


Then I stenciled cogs etc in the corners with black soot..


Then finally added texture paste called Tombstone..eek!..


printed and fussy cut my top hat, glued it on, a hot air balloon die cut and paper pieced,
Tiny tags, string, and cogs..



an easy sentiment cut from the papers..


And, done!

It is thick and heavy, but I love it..

So do come and join us with your masculine projects..



Thank you so much for stopping by,
gosh, the week is going so fast and got the boy back this week..


And someone is all comfortable and waiting!!...


See you tomorrow..

luv CHRISSYxx

Absolutely amazing, I love how this came into being. A Super masculine card. More admired, as I'm not into Steampunk.
