Don't forget - watch my blog for some forthcoming CANDY!
For now though I am posting a card I made for the OSAAT DT. This is Challenge No 186 and to win the prize of every digi used by the DT members in Challenge 184 just make a card using a digi from Stitchy Bears Digi Stamp Outlet (here). Have you noticed how I am linking everything now that I have found out how to do it - woohoo! You can still win a prize from the Outlet if you use a digi from another company - so what have you to lose! My teamies have made some gorgeous cards so whether you enter the challenge or not, try popping over to see their creations.
This digi comes with some papers to download - they are the two smaller pieces on my card and are great for the image. I used the 'grey' family of Promarkers, together with a little bit of Tan, Cocoa and a pale blue (can't remember which one though - duh!).
Ingredients
7" x 7" Kraft Card Blank - Anna Marie Designs
Steampunk Sail Ship/Papers - Coosty Creations (Stitchy Bear Outlet)
Chronology Papers - Papermania
Spellbinders - Decorative Labels Twenty-eight
Promarkers
Wink of Stella Clear Pen (for steam!!)
Large Cog - Junkyard Findings by Prima Marketing
Small watch cogs/pieces - Ebay
Chain from my jewellery making bits and pieces
Sentiment - typed then printed off
Screwhead brads
Thank you for stopping by my blog and checking out my 'stuff'. Let me say once again, how grateful I am for any comments you may have left for me to read. Oh and the OSAAT Challenges are lovely to enter so please have a wee try!
Big hugs to you all and I hope you are enjoying your weekend.

This is such a cool card, I love the steampunk digi (your coloring is marvelous) and the use of textural elements to enhance the feel is PERFECT. I also really love the patterned paper you used in the base - the phrases spiffing and such add to the mood of the card. It is a perfect masculine card and I'm delighted you shared it with us at Opus Gluei! I hope you return for more challenges with us!
