October Mid Month Inspiration, Some Spotlgihts and a Prize Sponsor

Servus and a warm welcome to all the Steampunk lovers out there!

It's time for our mid month inspirations bundle and the announcement of this month's prize sponsor and it is

So don't miss the chance to win some Tando goodness by entering a project to our actual challenge "Steampunk Couture" which is still open until the end of the month. The winner will - as always - be picked randomly among all the (proper) entries from the 2D and 3D collections.


My wonderful design team have created some more fab "steampunk couture" projects for your inspiration, but I thought I'd also shine some spotlights on some of the wonderful entries from our last challenges (as I have to admit that I have been very negligent with this during the last months. Sorry for that).

But first to my wonderful teamies' creations:

Agnieszka

The 'Rebuilder of Gowns' establishment got itself an extended version of their advertisement in the form of an ATC with a skirt rebuilt steampunk couture-style. :)

Kerstin

 

and yet a top hat, also for me the most beautiful Assecoire of the steampunk couture. The result is a mixed media collage using stencils and stamps.

Laura

This 'Couture Creation' used a mannequin that had been started as another project over 18 months ago...it didn't 'work' then and I discarded it in favour of another idea. The mannequin sat in the scraps bin for all this time and was brought back to life to be a steampunk creation here.

And now on to the promised spotlights (and I promise I will try to do them more regularly again from now on!):

Steampunk Couture - the October Challenge

Hello, servus and welcome back, dear Steampunk friends!

Time to start the challenge for October, isn't it?
But first the whole team want to thank you all (once more) for all the brilliant and amazing artwork you share with us so constantly! Choosing our Top3 is always such a hard choice and narrowing your entries down to three favourites is never easy. But we will do our job of course and announce the Top3 of the last challenge on Saturday, 11th. So make sure to check back then to find out if you made it to the top ;)

The challenge theme for this month is

Steampunk Couture

and it means that any kind of sewing themed, dress themed, fashion themed, couture themed Steampunk creation will fit in.

Team A have created some really beautiful projects for your inspiration. I recommend you visit their blogs (by clicking the names or the images) to find out more and have a closer look (and maybe even take the time to leave a short comment for my lovely and busy ladies ;).

Brigitte

An altered puzzle - the skirt is fabric with felt gears, some charms, ribbon... paint

Susan

This month it's time for catwalk and steampunk masquerade

pop over to my blog to see more details




Agnieszka

When I think 'steampunk couture', I think 'top hats'. So I made one. :)
 It's really tiny, To see just how tiny it is, hop over to my blog.

Well, that's what I call inspiration. Yay! ;) 

Our challenge will be open until the end of the month and again we offer two separate collections for the 2D and the 3D makes you (hopefully) enter to our challenge (soon). 

Our prize sponsor for this month's challenge will be revealed on October 15th - alongside an additional inspirations bundle from Team B. So don't miss that!

We hope to see you and your fab projects soon! 

Hugs and happy crafting,

your SASPC-Team
