Octopode goodness

How about a spot of Fat Page action to brighten up your Sunday afternoon? With added Octopode goodness? Oh OK then, you twisted my arm.

The theme for this Fat Page swap is Steampunk. 

The background is embossed gold card, distressed a tad with some brown archival ink. Then the silver die cut cogs were heat embossed with text stamps and copper and gold embossing powders.

The Octopode stamped image is coloured with watercolour pencils, with a touch of gilding flakes here and there and a glossy accented front grill! The saying is part of a stamp from Indigo Blu.

As the challenge over on the Octopode Factory Friday challenge is anything goes, this fits perfectly!!!
