SteamPunk ATC

I was in the mood for some fiddly stuff today. That, and needing to do a few things for a swap I'm in. An ATC fitted the bill perfectly.
I've had this image from Sassy Studio Designs for a few weeks and never got around to applying any colour to her. Today, stuck in the house because of the cold, seemed to be the ideal opportunity. It so happens that Just Inspirational Challenges are being sponsored this week by Sassy Studio Designs, there is a sketch and a theme of steampunk.

I did put a (cm) ruler up against my ATC as a size guide.
The image was coloured using promarkers.
Glossy accents used on the hat decoration and brooch at her neck. The glossy accents also came in handy for embedding those little watch hands in.
The background is from MCS "Tinkering with Steampunk" CD. The little swirls are die cuts from pearlised gold card. Ribbon is from stash.















I am entering this ATC into the challenge over at
Just Inspirational - Their sketch and theme
So Artful - Anything but a card and inspired by Georgia O'Keefe
The Stampman - Embellish It
Creative Craft World - Make It Mini
Do You Stack Up - Anything Goes
