To make this a special card, I have done some researches on gear motion and incorporated the mechanism into this card (as shown in the video).
I used the Graphic 45 Steampunk Spells collection as it has the cheerful and thankful orangey color tone and also gears. To heightened the Steampunk theme, I made some metal foil die cuts for embellishments.
- Lace Corner Deco D (B164) (Note: These corner dies are so versatile and can be used various embellishments)
- Lacey Pumpkin Corner Flourish (B138)
As for the gears, I needed something that can cut thick chipboard and pulled out my Tim Holtz Mini Gears (657211).
Between the cloud, I have added some sun rays with the Tim Holtz Distress Paint Picket Fence and bling it up with Ranger Star Dust stickles glitter glue.
And in this new year, may you find sunshine in your everyday life.
