The theme for the February altered trading coins swap is "steampunk."
These are the coins I created and sent off to my partners.
I used a painty background and stamped the woman's face on a piece of ivory yardstick and lightly colored it with colored pencils. I added it to a painty background and glued on lots of metal gears.
I made the turquoise and rusty red ones by using alcohol inks to some of the silver ones. I edged the coins with a copper pen.
I think steampunk is a hard theme so I can't wait to see what I receive in return?
