Steampunk Tag~Stampin Dymonz challenge

I created this tag for "Tim Times Ten~Day 3 challenge at Stampin' Dymonz Creative Space.

The directions were to create a steampunk tag which incorporates the sponging and heat embossing techniques somewhere in the tag. Your design must incorporate a key, 3 arrows, and a pointing hand. At least one of the elements listed must be a metal embellishment and one stamped image must be manually (hand) cut out.

Tag sponged with Studio G orange Chalk Ink and then accented with Tim Holtz Distress Ink (fired brick). My pointed finger brad was colored with alcohol inks (lettuce and currant), covered with clear embossing powder and heat embossed. Two of my ballons were cut from Graphic 45 paper and the 3rd balloon was a Michaels stamp (stamped on Graphic 45 paper) and cut outMy Key (Graphic 45 paper) is on one of the balloons. .Arrows(red~Maya Road)(vellum/one way)(metal~Tim Holtz Game Spinner) Flower paper (Recollections) and brown twine were also used.

It's been quite a while since I've felt any spark of creativity until today.

I am soooo sad that I missed the 1st day of Stampin Dymonz "TIM TIMES TEN" challenge.

I made this tag for Day 2 Challenge "MASKING"

I used Distress inks on my tag and a Glimmer Mist mask. The Butterfly stamp is by Innovative Stamp Creations and the branches are from a set of Rubbernecker stamps.

I also used Glossy Accents and  bling from Hero Arts .
