Jo Corne Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 I have spent the whole day on this and I LOVE it, if I say so myself. I can't wait to give it to Aaron's teacher on friday, she's taking long service leave early to take her family to Israel for her sons' Bar-Mitzvah. Pnina's clock now I just have to get the next three done by december 13 when we break for the summer hols!!! TFL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jo Corne Posted November 7, 2007 Author Share Posted November 7, 2007 hey Luana, thanks for your love... I bought a clock from teh $2 shop for $7 (aussie, which is about $6 US). it had a white face with black boring numbers on it, and a black rim around the edge. I took it apart, measured the face size, created a circle that size in Photoshop and then played with the paper/elements. I then painted the black rim in the matching green with acrylic paint, took about 3-4 coats and then applied both a gloss and a sealent. arranged the flowers and stuck them down with 'popdots', little sticky pieces used for raising elements in paper scrapping. I then printed out the butterflies, cut them out, bent the wings in a bit and put a pop dot underneath, placed it on the flowers and put the whole thing back together. now it's on the wall with a battery in its back just to make sure it actually ticks and tells the time, LOL. hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
