Steampunk Inspired Card

A quick unadorned steampunk inspired card. I really wanted to jazz it up with some metal gears and embellies but also wanted it to be sent in a standard envelope without padding or extra postage.
The background was done with a Cuttlebug embossing folder. The little flyer and the panel are from digital downloads that can be found in Inka's Altered Artifacts Etsy Store.

  3. That's really cute! It definitely gets its steampunk point across even without the addition of embellishments!
