A Grungy Steampunk TIn for Creative Embellishments.






Kelley here for Creative Embellishments today.  So excited.  I have had an empty Recollection flower tin in my stash for ages waiting to be altered.  Never quite knew what I wanted to do with it.  That is until I saw the absolutely fabulous steampunk dressform.  I knew exactly what I wanted to do from there. 



I added BoBunny Somewhere in Time paper to both the inside and outside of the tin.  I grunged up the outside a bit more by stenciling with archival inks in Sepia and Aquamarine.  I finished of the front with a rusted button with a BoBunny button layered over.  On the outside top of the tin and the inside lid, I added recollections bling.  I added all kinds of fun flowers and embellies around the base, my favorite being the chipboard clock from the smaller chipboard timepieces  . 


I paited the dressform with copper metal paint and then added patina.  I went over parts of it with Lumiere metallic rust and added more patina.  Then I layered tons and tons of mini gears,   gear set small 2 gears, and gears set 2 medium.  I added some propellers and bling to finish it off. 




For the inside lid, I used more gears and some BoBunny papers, chipboard, and gear.
