Going Around in Gears card with video tutorial

http://www.simonsaysstampblog.com/mondaychallenge/
Hi everyone,

It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Going Around in Circles".


For this challenge, I thought of gears, these are round and go round, and the 3D Mechanics Embossing Folder is really perfect for this. Because I'm working with Nuvo Powders, I like to use Clear Gesso as a primer. After the gesso was dry, I started adding layers with the Nuvo Powders, Atlantis Burst and Green Parade. And to add more color and depth I also used Infusions A Bit Jaded.

  

To make the gears stand out a little extra, I used a few gears from the Gearhead die set and gave it a metallic look with Bronze Age and Peacock Metallique Wax. I fastened them with Fasteners.

Well, I see you got addicted to the Nuvo Shimmers and the oposite corners coloring :-) I still need to try them out, the shimmers and the corners technique cause I love them both. It was so cool to watch how you built the colors with several shades of blue and green. Great result!
