Live in the Moment

Hello! 

It's time for a new challenge at Try it on Tuesday and this fortnight the theme is  Time/Clocks.

You can interpret this as you will -it's up to you as long as you incorporate the theme.

                                              

The rest of the design team have some great inspiration for you, so please pop over to the main blog for all the details.

My take on the theme is an altered clock deriving from late 50s. 

If you are watchful you can spot the lettering: Made in USSR.

I didn't want to cover it, treating the lettering as something memorial :))

  

I started  the process by disassembling the clock and adding some decoupage paper to the surface.

 I replaced the plastic cover with some some details I made of the junk found in my treasure box and some die cuts, which I gave a lot of metal paint, waxes and rust effect medium.

I must admit I had a very good time altering the clock, putting together all the details.

I am also linking this to:

Vintage Journey: altered art

Country View Challenges: metal

Off the Rails Scrapbooking: Steam Punk

Good Friends

There is a new challenge starting today at Try it on Tuesday.
The theme for our fortnightly fun is MY FRIEND (human or animal or imaginary).

                                     


If you need any ideas our wonderful team have made projects to inspire you so pop along to the blog to see their makes.
My take on the theme is the mini art journal spread with the image of two schoolgirls jumping over the hurdle.
It reminds me of  happy times me and my life time friend had at school. 

As the spread is 13,5x20 cm I am linking it to art journal journey where the theme is:
Colour in my World and Happy Little Stampers with the theme Collage.
