Now, I know what I said in my last few posts but shock and horror, this one isn't a CAS card! Just chalk it up to being an Aquarian - "unconventional individualists" or contrary as my OH would say!
Anyway I wanted to do a card that used one of my new digis (available this coming Friday at Can You Digi It LilyPink Designs ) so I decided to merge a Kenny K digi called Scarlett West with my Steampunked Top Hat digi. The card may not be CAS but it doesn't have that much clutter on it - just a few cogs, brads and a clock face. Oh, not forgetting the corner frames as I felt it looked unbalanced without just a little something more - and then I added a small key charm to Scarlett's bag strap - so, summing up, not CAS but not too loaded either........
On to the photo!
As I said, the top hat digi is one of my new ones and will be available to buy this Friday along with 3 additional new images. Two of these will be ideal for Valentine's Day cards and tomorrow I will be showing a couple more creations using them.
I would like to enter this into the challenges at - Kenny K's Krafty Krew , Cards Galore , One Crazy Stamper , Inky Chicks , Artistic Inspirations , Lady Anne's Challenges .
Thanks so much for stopping by and a big hello to my new followers :)

Hi, Mary. Popped over from Edie's. I envy those of you who seem to embellish effortlessly. Mine always end up looking a mess and/or homemade. LOL. I live your stuff. I'll be popping in again. Happy Crafting! http://sweetpea1030.blogspot.com

Steampunk awesomeness! The top hat is fabulous Dawn. Looks amazing behind that sassy image. You did a great design job with all those gears and the clock. Hugs!
Simply fantabulous! I love this card, too! You can do CAS and you can do not CAS. Either way you do great designs! Love Scarlett & the top hat and your coloring. Love the papers and all the fun embellies, too! :^)

So, you probably knew that I'd love this.
Great card. I love the way you colored both the Kenny K image and your own digi. The contrast between the cool and warm greys is fabulous.
The card is well designed with the perfect amount of "stuff".
Fabulous card and great layout, it looks perfect! =)
Thanks for joining us on Anything Goes at Lady Anne's challenges!
