SC380 Time Flies When You're Wearing a Top Hat

Photo Details

Poster: peeps321

This was a very interesting sketch. I had no idea how to approach it. When I saw all the circles I started thinking about gears and that made me think of Steampunk...so that became my card for today.

great collage- love all the retro pieces- the stamped image, the top hat, the great invention-style blueprint background paper. Super card!

Polly, another vintage/steampunk(...I'm not sure I know what that is) winner. You really have a wonderful talent of combining colors, patterns and images....and then adding the most appropriate charm. I just LOVE your cards!
