Well no choice now (thank you Linda..lol) I got out my clock and decided to paint it ivory. Didn't like that so I decided to add some tissue tape to the sides and use some Wild Honey distress paint to add some color to it. Still wasn't happy with it so I decided to use some Walnut Stain distress ink and dull it down.
OK, so the outside was done now to tackle to inside. It seems like a small space to cover but it really intimidated the heck out of me. So I got out my trinket cases and just started picking out anything I might think would layer well. I picked a salvage sticker of a couple and I started to build around that. I also used some Maya Road pins .. I love to add pins into a project for some reason. So I started layering and popping things up. I made a flower using Tim's Tattered Flower Garland die to add a little pop of color. Here is how the layers look .......
I'm not totally thrilled with it, but I'm proud of myself to at least try to tackle this clock that has been sitting in it's box for quite some time.

It's funny how we change our color minds, isn't it? Love what you did with the wild honey, and you've created such a pretty collage inside. Thanks for joining us at CC3C, Cim!
ReplyDeleteCim...I really like your clock! Love the addition of the tissue tape to the bells! Not sure I've seen that but I like the idea! :) Love the wild honey exterior on your clock. That is one of my favorite Tim colors! :) You've really done a nice job with all of the ephemera that you've layered into such a cool collage on the inside as well. Great job! Thanks for sharing your clock with all of us at CC3C> <3 Candy
