I love all things steam punk and grunge. The array of applications this theme
can have when you are creating are endless.

The great thing about these chipboard elements is they are so detailed and the
ability to alter them is unlimited. I have used distress ink, distress crackle paint

I have repeated the grunge style on a tag and softened the feel by the introduction of some floral embellishments. They coordinate well with the chipboard embellishments
I have chosen to use .
I love the fine detail shown here as many of the chip board elements have.
I used the following Scrapmatts on my tag
Ornate frames 22 CB1220

They also give great dimensionality to any craft project, whether you use them individually
or use multiple types for a layered effect.
A great tip when using scrapmatts chip board is to gently flex them to
give even more dimension

online store and discover the fabulous range available.
