For today's creative celebration in STEAMPUNKERY - I have created a necklace using chain pieces, a stamped silk leaf, a diecut leaf out of mics and painted vintage book paper, and of course...gears!

Using jewelry pliers, I opened the chain links and added gears.

The Man in Green all Wrapped up with a Bow! Holiday Card using Unscripted Sketches #177

Welcome to Sketch-it Saturday again and I've created another Christmas card with Unscripted Sketches Sketch #177.

My Grinch Paper Pack has a patterned paper with Grinch heads popping out of wreaths all over the paper on a bright blue background. This is one of the papers I haven't used yet and this was the perfect occasion to put this to use. What do you do with a large patterned paper??? You cut it up. I cut out three Grinch wreaths.

**A TIP** I cut out multiple sections of this image and used 3-D pop dots to raise up the Grinch's Face and bow on the wreath - giving a dimensional embellishment.

The rest of the card is also from the Grinch paper pack. This card doesn't need a whole lot...he steals the SHOW! I can cross another card off the list.

What is Sketch it Saturdays at Unscripted Sketches? Every Saturday morning a new sketch is posted for the week. Flip the sketch, rotate it… create a card, a scrapbook page, a wall hanging, digital, paper, fabric, paint, anything your imagination comes up with! There is no right or wrong way, as long as you are using the Unscripted sketch as the inspiration for your creation! And everyone is invited to join in the fun...and post your creation on their page for all the world to see!

Are you playing along??? The ABAC Challenge Blog debuted challenge #2 "TEXTURE" last Saturday and tomorrow my texture project will be featured with the design team!!!! Please drop by tomorrow and check it out! CLICK HERE to go to ABAC.

Have a fabulous Saturday!
