| Corrines Gourd with 7 Gypsies Rubons |
This gourd was cleaned and colored using Tim Holtz Distress Inks, then I applied 7 Gypsies Rubons to the
gourd and sealed with Claudine Hellmuth matte medium.
These are the new rubbings for Summer 2010. They are wonderfully done in the steampunk style that
is currently so popular. I love the steampunk style and even though I have loved all the rubbings 7 Gypsies have done
in the past, I particularly love these.
Rubbings are a great way to personalize a project and make it your own. Use on transparencies, glass,
paper, metal, books, candles, etc.
To Use, just cut out the rubbing style you want and use the handy-dandy applicator tool (popsicle stick)
and just rub it over and it will transfer to your surface of choice.

7 Gypsies Rubbings-Numbers Steampunk~This is a different collection of numbers from what is typically
on the market. There are old phone numbers- I remember mine from when I was a little girl- Tuxedo 882-6520. There are
ruler numbers, typewriter numbers, service numbers, chemical numbers, speed limit and more. Very cool selection.
You can also use just a portion of it -for instance, use the ruler in several projects instead of all in one chunk.

7 Gypsies Rubbings-Natural History Steampunk~This fun collection reminds me of the old encyclopedias
we had. I would love to look at the color plates of birds and other animals and flowers inside them. This collection
has flowers, birds, frogs, birds nest, moth and other bugs. There were some plates in the encyclopedias I didn't even
want to touch like the spider ones...iccckkkk. But this collection looks pretty safe- the ant detail is a little creepy
but it still would be cool on the right project. Maybe a baby doll head or an ice cream cone.

7 Gypsies Rubbings-Nomenclature Steampunk~I like this collection of product names from soap to ink to
gramophone. Just a wonderul eclectic mix and I really enjoy the ink blots. There is a Helpmate sewing machine,
storage & transfer line (great for a trunk), wool, cologne, confectionery, cafe and more.
I think they really have a winning collection with all the new rubons.
$4.39
7 Gypsies Rubbings-Time Steampunk~This would certainly come in as one of my favorites of the collection.
I love gears and clocks so this really speaks to me. It also has clock hands, some chain, words, small clocks.
You can combine some of these- put a small clock in a circle or cut a clock in half and only use part of it. Rubbings
are a great way to create your own unique embellishment.

rubbing tool you can use over and over-ha ha- popsicle stick- low tech. It is efficient though. This has 17 different
tickets of various sizes and colors. For a frame of reference, the top right tickert measures 1 1/2" wide and approx
2" high. There is a ticket for transit commissions, win a car tick, carriage check, some foreign ones and one that looks
like an invoice. Very pretty. I personally love the rubbings 7 Gypsies does. They always look nice when
you use them. I recently used some of the black and white ones on a gourd I colored. I sealed them with matte
medium and hopefully soon I will have a pic up of that.
