Hello! I am beyond excited today! Why? Steampunk, baby...Steampunk! Yes, it's quite popular right now and it's no wonder. Traditional steampunk imagery combines anachronistic inventions set in a Victorian time period, some of which are powered by...you guessed it...steam. What's not to love about that?! Beautiful damsels adorned in their Victorian finery...frilly hoop skirts covered in lush textiles, hats embellished with lavish plumage, set against industrial backdrops featuring cogs, gears, and other hard edged representations of technology. A delightful juxtaposition of feminine and pretty versus masculine and mechanical.
The creators of Tiddly Inks and Make It Crafty recognize the intrigue of unique Steampunk stylings and have mysteriously been working together for months to design characters, scenery, and papers that blend together beautifully to create Steampunk vignettes. Visit the Tiddly Inks and Make It Crafty websites to see the full extent of images available and to glimpse gorgeous samples created by both design teams that will no doubt have your crafty side hankering to play with these fabulous designs. Also, visit a special site established just for this release where you will find more information regarding the Steampunk images and you'll have a chance to participate in a fun little game of "I Spy". You might even find a special code good for 15% off these new images for a week! I wont give away any details. Just head over to the site and check it out for yourself ;D
You've been under a lot of stress lately, so do yourself a favor and treat yourself to a little Steampunk R and R. You know you want to ;D
