Happy Travels!

Lately I have seen a lot of tunnel cards in magazines and online.  I thought all the flying Steampunk contraptions would look great in one.  Here you can see the Victorian Balloon, Flying Man and Man in Flying Machine inside the tunnel card.  They are stamped on a transparency and heat embossed with Ultra High Gloss Embossing Powder. zA hint of color was added with Copics.   

The tunnel card is four 5 x 6 inch pieces of card stock for the front and back.  The front is cut out to create a 1 inch frame. The sides are scored to create an accordion between the back and front. Miracle Tape was used to construct the card. 

The front and back were stamped repeatedly with the Nesting Gears.  Also on the front frame are the Fancy Vintage Key, Key 3/4 x 1 1/4, Steampunk Gothic and Steampunk Gear. 

Just inside the frame the Binocular Man is peering out of the frame, he was stamped on a transparency. On the outside of the frame is the Steampunk Warrior stamped on craft card stock. Both were heat embossed with Ultra High Gloss Embossing Powder. 

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL FAIRY DAY

Hope you are enjoying the blog hop today... 

there are some amazing artist participating.

For this project I have used three layers of paper from a sheet of Vintage Voyage.  There are six frames on each side! It was hard to choose what to cut and what not to cut.  I tend to save all my Graphic 45 papers for "someday".

Had breakfast at Barbie's Cafe in Seabeck... love the down home feeling!!!!  It was a busy morning at the restaurant, should have made reservations. It was a bit chilly for Dad outside. We sat in the overflow area at the front of the store and enjoyed watching all the activity out the front window!
