While sorting through my stash, I found a few pre-printed cards that someone gifted me with a few years ago and decided it was time to use them. I chose this pattern design because the Impression Obsession clock fit perfectly inside of the printed pattern. I cut the clock from grey, black, white and blue cardstock and swapped all the negatives to put it together. I placed it all on a dark green card base which matches the printed color, and added a pre-printed SSS sentiment which I layered on black and fishtailed the ends with a hexagon punch. This went to my cousin who repairs clocks so I thought it was a perfect birthday card for him.
I'm sharing it with the Male Room Challenge #159 which is "clocks"
Thanks for the visit. I hope everyone is staying warm in this cold snap.
