 Spirit of Africa

Steampunk Serengeti Card by Leigh

 

Today is the finale of our epic Steampunk Serengeti Blog Hop!

Thank you everyone for joining us on our grand adventure to the Steampunk Serengeti!  I've thoroughly enjoyed seeing your African and Steampunk themed makes especially the ones using my new Steampunk Serengeti Collection...I truly appreciate seeing my digi stamps and SVG Cuts being used and enjoyed...thank you for supporting LeighSBDesigns❤️

🎃 Prepare to be spellbound with delight coz something wicked this way comes for SPOOKtember 🎃

I'm giddy with excitement and can not wait to release LeighSBDesigns Halloween 2021 Collection!  It is the largest collection I've ever released and it's beyond wicked so do pop in for a spell early next week for the SPOOKtacular launch🎃

Now for my finale make today!

My card today features:

Cheetah Steampunk Serengeti digi stamp

Botanical Gears Steampunk Serengeti Collage Digi Stamp

Steampunk Serengeti Grunge Sentiment Digi Stamp Set of 3 sentiments

Gears and Leaves Layered Steampunk Elements Cutz Set

AFRICA Steampunk Serengeti Layered Lace Cutz set    

I used Distress Oxide Sprays to create all my background papers for this card and printed out the Cheetah Steampunk Serengeti digi stamp and the Botanical Gears Steampunk Serengeti Collage Digi Stamp for the large background mat layer on to 2 of the Oxide papers.

I mounted the 2 panels onto a mat layer of Tim’s gold mirror card and then onto a folded card base I made from heavy weight black cardstock.

Using my Silhouette Cameo 4 I then cut the overlay from the AFRICA Steampunk Serengeti Layered Lace Cutz set out of black cardstock, the 1st mat layer included in the set from another sheet of my Oxide papers and the offset mat layer from a sheet of Tim’s silver mirror cardstock.  I used pop dots to adhere the AFRICA panel to the card.

The sentiment "Spirit of Africa" is from the Steampunk Serengeti Grunge Sentiment Digi Stamp Set of 3 sentiments which I cut out with an offset designed in Silhouette Studio after I printed it out.

I cut out the leaf elements included in the Gears and Leaves Layered Steampunk Elements Cutz Set from my Oxide papers too and applied Black Soot Distress ink to the edges.  All the gears elements were also cut from the gold and silver mirror card.  I then embellished the card with all the elements and attached the sentiment with pop dots.
