Claudia here to bring to you the new challenge for August! This time I am writing this challenge post at my beloved holiday place in the wonderful Austrian Salzkammergut and hope you are all having a wonderful summertime too!
If you haven't already seen our Steampunk Summer Special, I recommend you click HERE! But this post is all about our new challenge for August and the theme is
In the Laboratory!
As long as you enter a Steampunk project and follow our general challenge rules, it is totally up to you how you interpret the theme!
We have once more a wonderful guest designer with us this month: this time it's lovely Sue O'Connell from Something out of Nothing who created a project that matches this month's challenge theme to add to Team A's fab bundle of inspiration!

I am honoured to be asked to partake in this month’s challenge at
SanDee and Amelie’s Steampunk Challenge as a guest. I am with some
very talented people. I haven't constructed a box type dimensional
piece in a while and so I started off with a 10.5cm x 28cm deep box
(without the lid) which I purchased from a car boot sale for 50pence.
I make bespoke scrap canvas, scrapbooks and cards, and love to
demonstrate products for companies and teach workshops on crafting
all over the North West of England and cannot think of a nicer way to
spend my spare time. My philosophy is ‘There’s no such word as
can’t’ and I love altering stuff I find on car boot sales, in
charity shops and making anything out of nothing
I have used a selection of stamps, embossing powder, craft metal
acetate,embelishments and watercolour paints for my project. Get
the full instructions from my blog www.nwscrapbooking.blogspot.com.
Have fun crafting,
Sue

And this is what Sue created for our "Laboratory" theme:
Sooo much to see and discover! For a larger view simply click on the images and check out all the brilliant depth and detail! Thank you so much, Sue, for sharing your incredible art with us! xx

Of course Team A have risen up to the challenge too and produced a lot of "Laboratoire-Goodness" for you - check it out:
This 'laboratory cabinet'
was created from a piece of an old book. I cut out sections from the
inside to create the 'shelves' and added texture and colour to the front
of the 'cabinet' with modeling paste, Inka Gold paints and alcohol
inks. It's full of dangerous liquids, as you can see! ;)
et voilà
In this
laboratory will be given the green light to leave all the ordinary behind...

Promised too much? I don't think so! Whatever it is you come up with - a card, a tag, a journal page, some altered art, encorporated vials or formulas, mad scientists or lab geek or experiments... we have again separate 2D and 3D collections for your makes - so please, pay attention to link your entry to the correct collection! And have fun of course! ;)
To find out if you have made our Top3 or won the prize check back next Saturday!
Hugs and happy crafting,
Claudia and the SASPC-Team
