Katzelkraft - Wheelwork

Hi everyone! 

I am back with a new Katzelkraft creation - Today with a touch of steampunk.

Time never stops running! 

That gave me the idea to create a New Year's card with gears. Hope you like it!

For the background I chose a gel print from my stash. I liked the pattern and the turquoise blue. 

I arranged the gears so that they more or less interlock. To do this, I had to do a little masking in some places to make them fit together! I embossed all the gears with clear embossing powder, which made the black stand out better.

Next, I die cut gears from silver cardstock, colored them with alcohol ink markers and added them. The hole parts of the gears I glued to the centers of the stamped gears.

Lastly, I stamped and embossed the sentiment, colored it with Distress inks, cut it into individual words and added them. I used a black fineliner to draw two lines along each of the labels.

2023 I colored with a silver glitter gel pen. The 2 that falls, I colored gray and aged it a bit. That's it!

Happy, prosperous and healthy New Year to you all!

See you next Tuesday with a new Katzelkraft inspiration! ;)
