Clarity Challenge May 15

Clocks - Well that is a challenge. How do I make a card with Clocks???


I first looked in my drawer of Clarity stamps and chose the boy with flying birds, the verse and the pocket watch in large and small size.


I created the background with the Cogs and Brick Wall stencils using various Distress Inks.


I stamped the boy with flying birds on the card and stamped the Time for Something New on clean white card.


I stamped the pocket watch onto shrink plastic and glued them over the birds. So it looks as though time does fly.

I cut the Time for Something New out and place black card behind to make them stand out and placed them on the card around the boy and birds.

I hope you like x

  8. Cool! Glad I have seen this on here as your explanation helps me understand the image, birds with clocks on them :) it is nice when you understand something that you didn't before. I love the effect of the clockwork and the bricks, they look great together!
