I hope everyone is having a good week so far and enjoying this fab White on White challenge :) I have tried another card today using an embossing folder I got in Preston a couple of weeks ago and heat embossing in white......
The embossing folder is 'Time' by Creative Expressions and the stamp used for the background pocket watch is 'Pocket Watch & Hands' by cArt-us.com. I stamped these along with the LOTV sentiment with Versamark and embossed with Cosmic Shimmer True White embossing powder, though I have to say it looks more 'off white', and not just in the photos! However, it is noticeable on the card and therefore gives another dimension. The hands for the clock are also from the same folder.......I just cut the clock out with the largest circle nestie, cut out the hands and attached with a jewelled brad at 5 o'clock as that is kind of a
traditional finishing time.
I tried it another way, with no hands on the clock and replaced them with the full LOTV sentiment.......
I hope you like these......I'm pleased to have really tried something different for this challenge! :D

ReplyDeleteBoth these cards are lovely - I think the idea of the sentiment in the clockface is good, but I actually prefer the clock with the hands!!
ReplyDeleteStrange how the white embossing powder appears so creamy on white card - does on mine too!!

These are both beautiful cards, I think I prefer the "hands on" one. Beautiful again, Ruth x
ReplyDeleteHow gorgeous - I'm a big fan of clocks! I love the hands one because I think the brad you've fastened them with looks lovely on it.
