Steampunk Kitty

This kitten was a distraction on Etsy when I was supposed to be looking for Eid digi stamps, tut tut but he's oh so darn cute.  You can find him here :)



I turned him into a Father's Day card as we're a family of cat lovers and he's been coloured with Prisma pencils.

I die cut a few Tim Holtz cogs and added Distress Inks/Oxides in browns and a green to create a verdigris look.  Added a few black paint splatters to replica some oil splodges and positioned them around the Lawn Fawn sentiment.




To finish him off I added some Glossy Accents to his aviator glasses and some white gel pen highlights, mounted onto a kraft base and this kitty is ready to take flight.

  1. Cute indeed. I have a grandson who would love this. Ohh dear it is fatal to go looking on the web. I loose hours and hours that way and end up with a long wish list! Hugs Mrs A.
