Hello, friends! Today, I'm on the Blank Page Muse Blog with this steampunk Christmas card. Steampunk art blends Victorian era history and aesthetics with futuristic technology. This is my stab at Santa's departure on Christmas Eve with that steampunk vibe. Follow along and I'll show you how I created this card.
I first took a piece of A2-sized, white cardstock and placed it on my sticky mat. I adhered the Intersection Stencil on top of the card panel. I ink blended four different shades of green on top of the stencil.
I felt that if I oriented the stencil in landscape position, the lines would be tall and make the resulting lines look like spotlights for Santa's exit from the North Pole.
I stamped the sleigh from Steampunk'd Christmas stamp set in black ink. I fussy cut it out and went around the edges with brown ink.
Final card. I added the gears and sentiment in brown ink from Steampunk'd Christmas stamp set. This is my first attempt at steampunk, so I'm not sure I achieved it or not, but I love the whole concept of a futuristic world without computers fused with Victorian Era flare is awesome in my book!
