3. Cut a piece of Green paper from the Lost and Found Paper Stash to 8” x 4” with a paper trimmer. Stamp circles from the Mixed Media stamp set with Bundled Sage Ink randomly all over the background.

5. Cut gears out of Grungeboard with the Vagabond Machine and Gadget Gear Die.

6. Working on one at a time, ink a gear with the Embossing Dabber until it is fully covered. Place the gear on a piece of scrap paper and pour one of the Metallic UTEE colors over top. Remove the excess UTEE onto the scrap paper and place the excess back in the jar. Move the gear onto the Craft Sheet and heat with the Craft Tool until the UTEE is melted. Let cool.

Leave the stamp on the gear until the UTEE is cooled. Remove the stamp and remelt the UTEE in random portions so some parts are textured and other parts are somewhat smooth.
