When I saw the old fashioned hot air balloon image, my mind went straight to Steampunk. I stamped the balloon, and fussy cut it out. I then embossed it and used copper inka gold. I used a gate die cut and paper gears to make it look more steampunk. I decided to color in the polka dots because it got too busy. The 3 sentiments are from 3 other MFP sets. The "Live" is from BE WILD
"Love" is from SWANS
And
"FLY" is from ON THE FLY
