We have Challenge #29 ready for you at the Lacy SunshineChallenge blog. This time around the theme is “Anything Goes.” Of course, there
are rules, and you can read the guidelines here. There’s also a “loyalty”
program, you won’t want to miss that.
For my “Anything Goes” project I decided I felt like a
little Steampunk. My image that I chose is “Gia Von Gadget.” She is available
in the “Lacy Sunshine Gang” section of Heather’s shop. I love Steampunk, and
Gia is one of the cutest Steampunk babes I have seen in a while.
I colored Gia with Copics, did some fussy cutting, and then
layered her on a cog from Spellbinder’s, and a Make It Crafty chipboard heart
with wings. My designer paper is from Graphic 45. The paper was layered with Stampin' Up! Taken with Teal and Basic Black cardstock.
Copics used:
Skin: E000, 00, 04,11, 21, R20
Hair: C1, 3, 5, 7, 9
Duster & Bow: BG78, 75, 72
Pants, Goggles, & Parts of Wings:
E13, 15, 17, 18, 19
Socks & Belt: Y32, 35, 38
Sprocket & Goggle Lenses:
Y00, 11, 15, YR23, 24, and
W1, 3, 5, 7
The cog and the heart with wings were accented with some of
my favorite DecoArt products. The cog was accented with DecoArt Rich Espresso Elegant
Finish Metallic Paint. After that was dry I rubbed DecoArt Black Shimmer Metallic
Luster. I love the Metallic Luster. The chipboard piece was painted with
DecoArt Elegant Finish Medieval Gold Glaze. Second coat was some dabbing with
DecoArt Americana Antique Teal acrylic and the last coat was more dabbing with
DecoArt Elegant Finish Glorious Gold paint. For the final accents I added some chipboard black bats and metal sprockets.

Love the paper, gears, and bats.The chipboard winged heart is so dramatic and suits the image beautifully.
