Welcome back to Lost Coast Portal to Creativity where Lost Coast Designs and Carmen's Veranda collide to bring you twice the inspiration and double the fun!
Good morning and a very happy Sunday! It's Sue here with my journal page for our Vintage/Steampunk challenge, and I've taken us under the sea.
My teamie Iona is the queen of masking, and I decided that I really should do this more. So, I stamped my punky creatures on some heavy-duty mixed media paper, and made my masks.
Then I dipped and dabbed in Distress Oxides. Time for the great reveal....
Phew it worked, I now have my steampunk fish and seahorse ready to colour.
These have been coloured with paint pens and pencils. If I'm really honest, I'm much happier to stamp and fussy cut rather than mask, so I can't see myself doing this again in the near future.
I've finished off with some white embossing, and some rusty Frantage. The quote is by Edgar Allan Poe and I thought it fitted in quite well. Then I've just sewn it into my journal.
These are the stamps that I used
I hope you like it, and that you join in with our challenge.
Enjoy your weekend, and thanks so much for looking x
