Steam power ?

Steanpunk is the current challenge over at Just for Fun, there are some great examples to see,   that make you want to try it yourself. I have made a few steampunk cards etc.  recently, great for the blokes in your life.
I have used  Creative Expressions stamps, I was so pleased  I bought these  fabulous 3 co-ordinating sets.
The cogs die cuts and embossing folder are TH. Distress ink as usual is my favourite colouring choice, tea dye, frayed burlap and vintage photo. The rest came from my stash.
Thankyou for taking time to stop by and take a look.
