The Artistic Stampers monthly challenge- October/Clocks

Hi All

This month the challenge on The Artistic Stampers Blog is Clocks, I hope you feel inspired by mine and the other creative teams pieces and join in the challenge.

It a journal page from me, I guess technically its the side of a cereal box, that I had previously covered with Gesso, but once I have a pile of them I will turn them into a book.

I started by scrapping Toffee and Caramel Fresco Finish paint over the card. I then stamped over the top using Distress inks (Hickory Smoke, Pumice Stone, Frayed Burlap and Vintage Photo) and The Artistic Stamper stamps, Chicken Wire, Cogs and Tick Tock.

I stamped out the words "The hours are going by" using black archival ink and Decay alphabet lower case, also from the Artistic Stamper. After I cut them out I edged them with distress ink.

I copied and painted the body from previous pages, and cut a dress from glassine paper, which I stamped over with a script stamp, I also stamped and cut a clock face to represent the girls face. to finish off I stamped and embossed some cogs for both the dress and the base of the page to act as flowers, afterwards I went around everything and added some doodling with a black paint pen.

Thanks for reading
