Zentangled Airship

This may be a pretty kitschy project, but I'm loving it after having completed it.  Steampunk Airships have been catching my eye for months now.  Zentangle, as well, always makes me stop in my tracks.  Yet I have no real love for either.  Hmmmm....For some odd reason, I found combining the two to be intriquing. 

Beginning with the Mini Steampunk Airship from Globecraft Memories, I Zentangled the frame, some hot-air balloons in the globe, and part of the tail.  I debated whether to use traditional steampunk coloring - however, my Zentangle preference is pure black and white - or at the very least bright colors...so I added a touch of red for color.  I do feel you can nover go wrong with red, black, and gold!  Accented with Piccolo enamel powders - Textured Black, Gilded Rose Gold, and Butterscotch, I am liking my finished airship!

Bubble Frames That Tell a Story

When I saw the Story Tellers Fancy Rectangle Globe Frame I thought of my favorite story the Wizard of OZ and all the wonderful paper Graphic 45 has made. 

First I cut my images from Graphic 45 papers and used Crystal Lacquer on them.

I covered the Base and two middle frames with Graphic 45 papers. The top most frame I covered with Piccolo Vintage Silver Enamel Poweder using the Piccolo Enamel Powder adhesive.

The flower and leaf vine Piccolo Card Decor were also covered with Piccolo Enamel Powders. 

In these pictures you see everything assembled before the bubble is added.  Images were adhered with glue dots and foam tape to give dimension. 

Here you can see the Piccolo Enamel Powders on the outermost frame. It was also used to edge the second frame, Vintage Silver layered with Mossy Green.

Before adding the bubble i-roc gems were adhered to the center of the flowers.   

Finally the bubble is added.
