SanDee&amelie's March 2017 Challenge - Part Two

Servus, hi and welcome to our little creative spot where our wonderful players, the team and I are sharing their amazing steampunk or industrial card-, tag-  and other mixed media art each month!

It's time for our mid-month reminder and the gals from Team B have once more done their very best to provide you with another dose of fab inspiration. And if you haven't already checked out the makes of Team A and want to get the double dose of mixed media mojo I highly recommend you click on the badge on top of our side bar after you have finshed reading today's post. ;)

With March we have switched back to our usual

Anything Goes - Steampunk/Industrial

challenge theme so you are invited to enter any handmade project to our challenge that has (at least the hint of) a steampunk or industrial feel to it. So don't hesitate - create! You might well become one of our Top5 or randomly drawn prize winners!

The prize winners and Top5 of our February challenge have also already been announced. Just read on and then scroll to the previous post to find out if you are among them!

And now let's share the creations of Team B:

Kerstin's

latest creation is called

Rusty Fantasies

She says:

 "It's nothing new that I love the sea and its secrets, but 'til today 

my creations were all blue. But now everything's sunken into rust."

Alexa

has altered a wooden musical box with a dancing couple inside

that she has steampunked in the most beautiful way!

If you open the drawer at the bottom the couple starts to dance. 

Dee

was inspired by the fab Game of Thrones series on TV

and created this amazing tag in her very unique style:

She says: 

"I hope you all enjoy the team's projects and find inspiration

to join in with us!"

Maura

has been thinking about the changing temperatures lately, so she made this stunning

thermometer page in her art journal.

"Can you imagine dressing like a Victorian on a hot, hot summer day?!" 

she asks

and 

I

(Claudia)

have a little riddle for you to solve:

Do you recognise the Sizzix die I used to create my "Steampunk Art" panel?

I had such a ball using it with some corrugated card and DecoArt media products.

Of course there is a detailed how-to on my blog.

And I highly recommend you visit my teamies' blogs to find out more about their makes and to look at them in close detail too. You get to their blogs by clicking on their names. And, please, take the time to leave them a little love too. Thank you!

And I sadly have to announce that wonderful Agnieszka aka Meresanth is no longer on our team. We wish you all the best for your future endeavours! You were such a great asset to our team, we loved your unique way of approaching steampunk and you will be dearly missed! Hugs! XXX

Our challenge is still open until the end of March and by entering (up to three) makes to our challenge you get eligible for a random prize draw. DecoArt media and boozybear chipboard pieces are generously donating prize packages to give away and I promise you will love what's in them! 

Hope to see you play along with us soon!

Hugs and happy crafting!

SanDee&amelie's March 2017 Challenge - Part One

Servus and welcome back, dear steampunk and industrial mixed media friends (and of course an especially warm welcome to you if you are new to our challenges)!

Time to kick off the March challenge and with this one we are switching back to our usual

Anything Goes - Steampunk/Industrial

challenges. So whatever you come up with - as long as it has a steampunk or industrial feel to it, you are more than welcome to join in!

Team A are sharing their makes with you today, but on the 15th there will be the second round of inspiration when Team B will show theirs. So make sure to stop by! Our February Top 5 and prize winners will be announced on March 11th. Another important date to note ;)

For this year the lovely ladies from DecoArt and I have put together a new DecoArt media prize bundle

and lovely Glenda from boozybear 

always puts together a new mix of her fab steampunk chippies - so playing along again may mean winning again - but new stuff this time! Yay!


The challenge will be open until the end of the month as always and the linky tool can be found at the bottom of our challenge posts. Please, check out our few challenge rules if you haven't already. We ask this mainly to avoid frustration in case you have to be excluded from the Top 5 votes and prize draws. They can be found right below our blog banner with the according tabs.

But enough talk for now! Let's have today's dose of inspiring steampunk/industrial mixed media art (and if you even take some minutes time to visit the teamies' blogs and also leave them a short comment, you will not only find out more about their projects but you will also make them very happy! Simply click on their names to get there. Thank you!):

Brigitte

has created a tag that also is a shadow box. How clever is that?!

Susan 

says

"Most of all I like the everyday life"

Zoja 

found an old record at a thrift shop and had great fun altering it.

Nate

made the most amazing set for her writing desk at her office! 

A letter box and a pencil holder.

I hope your mojo has been fuelled well! ;)

The team and I hope to see you pay along with us soon!

Hugs and happy crafting!
