APOS! Inspiration Challenge

Friday was my turn to post a challenge on the APOS! forum. I decided to make my own patterned paper. I had never done with before but I love it!
First I stamped the hot air balloon from Inkainkado's Steampunk collection using coffee Archival Ink on a beige card stock.
Then I stamped the gears, from the same collection, using chocolate brown Pigment Embossing Ink and covered them with clear embossing powder.
I coloured the balloons using fired brick distress Satin.
Then I went over the paper with wild honey Distress Stain.
Finally I used walnut stain Distress ink around the edges.
