Simon Says Stamp and Show a Hat!

This week over at the Simon Says Stamp and Show Blog,
the Challenge was a Hat!

It has been a while since I made a dimensional piece for one of these challenges but with this one I knew exactly what I wanted to do. A Steampunk stove top hat full of gears.

I started with a cardboard tube and let my imagination go crazy!



I tried to give the impression of the gear bisecting and coming out of the top.


Over the brim
And out the sides.
I love how the feathers pick up the colors of the Graphic 45 paper.
