Drunken Stampers 123 - Sky Captain & the World of Tomorrow!

Do you know what I remember most clearly about watching Sky Captain & the World of Tomorrow? The itty-bitty elephants in a bell jar.

In the realm of 'pretend pets that I could never have' a tiny elephant SO tops my list!

All that brings me to the new challenge at Drunken Stampers:

In lieu of teensy elephants I thought I'd give steampunk a whirl. Did I get it? I don't know, but I had fun trying!

Supplies: Tim Holtz metal gears; Crafty Secrets clip art & sentiment; kraft paper & vellum wings from stash; Sakura Stardust glitter pen

Tim Holtz is a good start for steampunky stuff - and so many of the images I saw had wings on people that I knew what I wanted to go with. This 'electric corset' seems up the right alley too. The vellum wings were fussy-cut from a patterned sheet - lots of different kinds of wings on it, but no bodies. I imagine it was meant for projects like this. I've used a craft knife to cut a slit along each woman's back, and tucked the folded wings in to get them into resting positions. And then glittered them:

Our linky will be open until next Friday night, April 19th. Check out what the rest of the Midnight Margaritas made:
