Geared Up Card

These adorable gears are from Sheena's Time Traveler's Stamps and Dies collection, don't they look marvelous?! I used it to make this masculine card and super liking the result. Showed it to my 6 years old boy and he said he liked the gears very much because they look like real gears (his critique are the only one I need. lol) 

To create such a rusty look I first adhered a layer of gold foil over a cardstock, cut out the gear shapes using the coordinating dies and stamp the image of the gears onto the foiled surface.  Then these gears were adhered to the pre-cut foam gears (adhesive foam sheet) to give the card a dimensional feel. And it just so happened that I had this clock printed patterned cardstock, just what I needed for these gears!

The sentiment is from Sheena's Time Traveler's (Time Machine) stamp set, I heat-embossed it with white embossing powder so it doesn't blend into the background like it would with black ink. 

Check out the sparkles! The rustiness looks absolutely gorgeous!! All you see here will be available to you on July 11th, just tune in to HSN to catch them before they are gone!!
