Showcasing Pisces for Simply Steampunk


Today I have the pleasure of showcasing Pisces from the fabulous Steampunk Zodiac collection at SBS.  Currently we have 5 of the 12 signs but more are on the way.


I've colored the gorgeous Pisces with Copics in shades from mostly the BG range accented with Waterfall Stickles for sparkle.



The underwater scene began with DP from K&Co with an overlay of potato sack netting that I sprayed with green glitter spray and sprinkled with mica flakes.   I swirled the yummy velvet crimped ribbon to look like seaweed and added a die cut cog distressed with ink under the net in the corner with some metal gears on top.  The sentiment is computer generated on a DP scrap, cut with my Nesties and inked, sprayed and stamped wth bubble wrap.  Then I threw on some epoxy bubbles for more shine.
 
 
The top left corner looked kinda bare so I added the adhesive metal "love"  that I colored with Alcohol Inks and a gold leaf marker and sprinkled with more mica flakes.  Why all the metal?  To remind you that our Current Challenge at Simply Steampunk is Metal and runs through September 5th.
