Hi everyone, hope you're having a lovely weekend so far. I haven't entered anything at the Simon Says Monday Challenge for a long time and as this week it's an anything goes theme I thought I'd enter this Birthday gift bag that I made for my youngest Son.
All the cogs are from the Sizzix Tim Holtz Gears Bigz die and I used DecoArt Ebony Black paint for the background on everything and their dazzling metallics shimmering silver paint to highlight. The name letters are Ranger Tim Holtz Ideology Newsprint Alpha Parts.
Back soon.

OH! lala... Chris. your creation is simply WOW! so very appropriate for a young man, and so "in". I love all the textures, and how you played with shades of greys and black and silver. Totally beautiful! Hugs.
How cool, Chris! The pearl pen dots look great against the embossed texture, and all the dry-brushing is fab!
