Make My Monday - Time Theme
As Monday was the final day of April the team at Make My Monday are still looking for something suitable for Men and Boys but with the added theme of TIME. I've really enjoyed this month of thinking up ideas for male orientated cards and this week was no exception, particularly as I seem to have quite a selection of suitable stash. Background paper was from Papermania Horology printed onto kraft card, the cream layer was put through a Tim Holtz Alterations clocks embossing folder and the layered clock was cut using a TH Ornate Clock with hands die using black card and some TH kraft resist card. The black centre and hands have been given a touch of Treasure Gold. The words were from a Stampin Up Sense of Time set and are on a TH Tattered Banner. A clock charm has been added with another small tattered banner.

Wow I love everything about this card Val, the colours are great for a man. I have that embossing folder and will admit to not using it yet. You seem to be having a great week just using up your scraps.

Superbly masculine & with gorgeous texture. I like the contrast between the various 'neat' edges of your elements & those 'tattered' banners & how you have elements overlapping.

Wow I love this Val, the clock is fab with those fancy hands and the paper clips add to the effect. The sentiment is great and according to it I am extremely wealthy:)

ReplyDeleteThis is a fabulous card Val. I have that clock at the top of my die wish list ever since I was lucky enough to receive your C tag in the swap. I love every element you have included on this card and those words are gorgeous too.
