"Steampunk Halloween" Mixed Media Pumpkin with Amy

 Hi lovely creative peeps, 
I hope this post finds you well and that you are enjoying your day! Well I always enjoy my day while creating for 2Crafty Chipboard since I think it's unimaginable not to use their chippies on my work. For today I have a mixed media halloween pumpkin. Enjoy my post....

October Fun

Amazing 2Crafty Chipboard used: 
Giant Gears
Fine- Word Set ~ Months ~
Funtimes Mini Title
Mini Branches
Mini Word Set 1
 Corner Steampunk 6

The mini branches are treated with only two layers of green embossing powders for the other pieces I used some white gesso on them first and then added two layers embossing powder. For the word "fun" I added three layers on the lower part of the word.

This was such a fun project to create all the flowers are hand made {my new addiction} with fabric the pumpkin I had in my stash for a long time and I finally got to use it. I am also hooked on the fine words especially the months.  

Thank you so much for stopping by I will be back next month with another project hope to see you back then....I hope I have inspired to create something pretty and have fun while doing so.
