Blood Sweat & Gears - Laura Gilhuly

 Hi everyone!
Laura back today to share my next layout.

2Crafty Products used:

Steampunk Gears Small
Blood Sweat & Gears
Mini Sampler
12x12 Nested Cog Frames
Checkerboard Clumps

I prepped the paper with clear gesso then added some texture paste that was coloured with powders.  After I prepped the chipboard pieces.

After the gesso dried I applied Finnabair mica powder in the rusty orange colour from the golden hour set, Dylusions slate grey ink spray and Ranger Distress Stain in black soot and hickory smoke.

I layered the chipboard with die cuts and molded pieces

The title piece I used lumberjack plaid ink and embossing powder then inked it with black around the edges to coordinate with the other distressed pieces.

Thanks for stopping by

Hello Everyone!

Today I have my first share for this month...

This masculine/grungy layout featuring a photo 

I captured last yr of my son, hubby & nephew...

And have incorparated  some awesome chipboard 

pieces, including a few from the Steampunk range!!!

2 Crafty Chipboard I've used::

Steampunk cog strip

A Couple of medium stars from the stars pack

 Tiny stars from ATC - Tiny Hearts & Stars 

2019

a  couple medium Steampunk gears

Corner Steampunk 2

Blood Sweat & Gears

Starting with the perect title for this page

 'Blood, Sweat & Gears' & 2019

Both inked with black...

To incorporate the assortment of stars used for 

the page I inked the ATC - Tiny Stars and

other sized stars with either black or brown.....

The base page used, already had a great steampunk cluster image

SO I decided to ink a the Steampunk Strip with a teal,

adhering it over part of the image, then finishing it with a

couple of the Medium Steampunk gears that I had inked blue....

Lastly the Corner Steampunk 2 

I randomly inking this again with a brown & the 

adding another Medium Steampunk gear 

that I had inked blue..

Finalizing my layout with splattering of gold paint...

Hopefully I hve inspired you in some way  

 to create your next masculine page...

Take care & until next time!
