Time


Our new Challenge over at Crafty Cardmakers is 'Time', The main image should reflect the concept of time passing, time spent, time waiting............
Please pop over and see what we have all been making and I hope you will join in.



We have two sponsers  offering with fabulous prizes.


This  is my card using a favourite Paper Artsy stamp for my main image, which I embossed using a sparkly embossing powder. It was shaded with Antique Linen and Tea dye distress inks.
 I added a clear embossed stamped clock face , which does look enamelled in real life.
For the gold miri card layer, I used a cogs and wheels embossing folder, then sandpapered over the raised surface to distress it . Adding a small brass clock embellishment and ribbon to finish.

Thank you for stopping by to take a look, I realy appreciate your comments.

  7. I love the colours you have used and the glazing on the clock face is just a great touch. The background is to die for - I have never thought of sanding Mirri card, before and it's super effective!
