Time Flies

 Hello All!  

Time is such a strange thing, don't you think?  Goodness, how it flies the older you get!  And boy, does it crawl when you are bored or doing something you do not like!  But in the end, time is indeed fleeting.  Spend it well! 


I did a bit of watercoloring with my fave- yes, my Ken Oliver Colorbursts- on some Tim Holtz watercolor card.  Once the paint was dry, I stamped the clock images from the Sweet n Sassy Stamps set, Time Well Spent.  To give the card an aged look, I used Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink.  For the main image, I stamped the smaller of the two clock images on a separate piece of Tim Holtz watercolor card using the same Brushed Corduroy Ink.  I stamped with my MISTI to allow my to stamp the image multiple times.  Once stamped, I used a wet brush to pull the color from the stamped edges into the image.  Once I was happy with the colored image, I stamped it again to crisp up the lines.  

Next, I took the wing images from the Going Postal Stamp Set and with my MISTI and a bit of masking,  stamped the wings on the sides of the clock, again using the Brushed Corduroy and pulling the color in with a wet brush.  I fussy cut the image out.  After stamping the sentiment in Walnut Stain Distress Ink, I popped the winged clock up on foam tape and added a few sequins to finish the card.
