Use Metal
Anything metal will do, charms, chains, embossing metal, metallic card, whatever!
Here is my inspiration:
Image: Steampunk Fairy |
I had so much fun coloring this beautiful image, used my new Spectrum Noir and Prisma Coloring Pencils.
The background was created with Distress Stains ( Bundled Sage, Dried Marigold, Mustard Seed and Vintage Photo), Distress Ink (Black Soot) and then heat embossed twice with Distress Embossing Ink and clear embossing powder.
My metal embellishment is a die cut using an aluminum metal sheet, I distressed it before to add some texture to the metal, die cut the border then aged it with black acrylic paint.
