A bit of Steampunk For Happy Daze


This box began its crafting journey as one of these pencil boxes. By adding die cut cogs and Verday paint it has become old and battered looking.

Finishing it off with some rusty chain and a mixture of found and newer objects it now looks completely different.

There is still time to enter this months challenge of Steampunkery, all the details can be seen on the Happy Daze  BLOG post.

Thank you for visiting, Carol x

Scrummy - full of weathered texture and romantic decay! The Verday paint is amazing! Fabulous altered art...
