Drumroll Please!!

With all the awesome entries from our extended challenge, we had to go beyond a top 5. So without further ado, let me introduce our TOP 7 (in no particular order)!!

 TIITONYY

created this awesome steampunk inspired violin with some natural elements in a gorgeous patina

 CATHY 

has created the most imaginative piece with a Funko doll. 

I am sure this character has a story to tell. 

 MACARENA

built a robot out of cogs, gears and bits and added a bit of romance with that flower. 

Are you thinking about all the bits you have to build with?

 VEENA

turned a lightbulb into a gorgeous rusty butterfly made of cogs and gears!

Look closely at all those wonderful embellishments.

MEGUMI

is wonderfully talented at creating moving steampunk projects! 

How cool is this steampunk gum ball machine?

SHRADDHA

has created a gorgeous altered boat to carry us on our journey through life! 

She shares some lovely thoughts too on her post.

LISA

puts an interesting and darker twist on steampunk with her creative piece!

It's like a step back to the time of the barber surgeon. 

Ladies and Gentlemen, thank you for sharing your amazing makes and awesome inspiration with all of us! Please feel free to grab the Top 5 badge from above (or the sidebar) and display it on your blog. 

Congratulations!!!

Sandee & Amelie's May Steampunk Challenge

Welcome back friends! We hope this finds you and your loved ones in good health. We are so happy to be back together for our steampunk/industrial challenge with you, and are thrilled with the phenomenal participation over the last two months with our COVID-19 extended challenge.

Perhaps you found more time to create while safely at home, or maybe it was your way to destress after a day of working...whatever the reason, we love seeing the amazing makes you created and shared here with us. It is an honor to share our little steampunk corner of the universe with you! 

THANK YOU!!

As always, our challenge this month is

STEAMPUNK/INDUSTRIAL
Anything Goes.


We welcome all types of projects that fit our steampunk/industrial mixed media theme. Please check the rules for the details. Maybe this is your first steampunk project, we would love to see it! Maybe you have entered before, welcome back! This challenge is open to all levels, and we love the inspiration you share here.

Many, many thanks to our awesome sponsors who keep the cogs and gears turning here!

DecoArt

At the end of each challenge, two winners are randomly selected from all proper entries (be sure to check out our posted rules) and will either get an awesome DecoArt Media prize package, or an amazing chipboard package.

 In these continuing uncertain times due to the global pandemic, our awesome sponsors have been impacted with closings. We are trying to get the prizes out in our usual time frame, but please understand there may be a delay in processing and getting the prizes out to the winners. 

Now, on to the wonderful makes from our team...
