Clocking in

Hi there
Today I have an altered clock to show you. I have also finished doing the instructions for the fall mini but have tried and failed to post it up here. I will give it another go tomorrow and see what I can do

This is a Kaisercraft beyond the page clock. First I gessoed it. I added texture paste and had loads of fun slathering it on. I needed to let it dry overnight which was a pain for me because I'm not very good at waiting. I like to finish something once I get stuck in. When it was finally dry I spritzed some glimmer mist and added distress ink. I also used some gold UTEE in random areas on the background of the clock. The pp's , trinket, bling and rose Bo Bunny Timepiece and the rest is a mixture of Prima, 7 Gypsies, Tim Holtz and other stuff too old to know where they come from. The pocket watch at the top left hand corner comes from a large bag of roken watch bits I once picked up for a song. The clock face in the centre is cut with a Sizzix Bigz die out of canvas with patterned paper on top. The flourish is done with Tattered Angels Glimmer Glam which I dried with a heat gun to give it a bubbly effect. Thanks for looking and I really appreciate all your lovely comments
