Steampunk Pussy Cat

Good Morning All.  Told you the challenges are plentiful this week.  Today is a new challenge for Cardz4galz. Steampunk is not really my usual cup of tea but I did say it was a challenge.  As it turned out I really loved this and I'm so pleased with the result.

First of all I had to find a stamp.  I don't have any steampunk images so I was looking for a digi that I could love.  If I was going to do this I needed something I could see myself using more than once.  Found one!  Have a look at this awesome cat from Sheepski Designs.  Even if I didn't need a Steampunk image I would have considered buying him.  He's fabulous.  Anyway, despite being unconvinced that my colouring was up to the job, I took the plunge.  What do you think?

Once I'd coloured him I just needed some rich dark red paper for the background.  I distressed the edges and did the same for a panel with some steampunk images on and added a few gears and dots that I cut with my cricut.  

Ok, over to you.  Please join in the fun.

Thanks for reading.

Love Dawn x
