Steampunk slimline card.

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!
 Hi stampers and other crafty people.
Do you love steampunk and vintage?
Than join the challenge and have a chance to win some rubber stamps.
Here's my DT example.
I made a slimline card, here is the step by step.
This is what I used:

Derwent Inktense pencils
Stazon Dove grey
A waterpoof black
Distress ink Wild honey,
Vintage photo,
Mowed lawn
Twisted citron.
Mica sheet.
White gell pen.

I started by stamping the Fly with bird stamp with black waterproof ink
on watercolor paper.
Color her in with the inktense pencils.
I chose green, yellow and gray,
 because I didn't want to use the traditional steampunk/vintage colors this time.
When you're done coloring, cut out the steampunk girl.
You can use sissors or a knife, what ever works the best for you.
Now we make the background.
Make with the 4 colors and some water ink puddles.
The main part with the distress ink vintage photo and wild honey.
And with the green colors we do some ink here and there.
I used a piece of mica, so you have more control over where the ink goes.
Leave some space to print the other stamps.
With the gears 2 background stamp and Distress ink Mowed lawn I stamped here and there.
Because I wanted to keep it very subtle I stamped second and third generation.
With the Stazon dove gray I stamped in the left under corner
and the right upper corner with the pieces of calligraphy.
And did the same with the dirigible stamp in the top left corner.

I stamped with black stazon.
The text "Art gives my soul wings to fly",
Now glue on the steampunk lady and mat with gray.
I hope you liked it,
and maybe you will also make something for the challenge.
If you participate you have a chance to win beautiful stamps.
You have until the end of the month.
