Have you ever bought a stamp, got it home and thought 'what am I going to do with that'?? Well this is one of those, its a Papermania Urban Stamp called 'Chronology Looking Glasses' it was my bargain stamp from Trago Mills £2.40..so I just had to buy it.... My lovely friend Val shared some of her Chronology papers with me so I scanned a piece into my Craft Artist programme and changed the colour....
I've added different Distress inks to the background as well as paper pieced some of the clocks in a different colours....just 3D his hands and glasses as I didn't know what else to do!
Its a glorious day here with lots of sunshine and I feel quilty crafting I should be out in the garden...there is always tomorrow...
I am sorry if I haven't visited your blog yet but have been washing and ironing since getting home....

I love this chronology range and like what you've done with this bargain stamp - great colour choice too.
Hi Anne - I've also had that feeling of "what do I make with this now I've got it home", but you have made a fabulous masculine card with this bargain stamp (I need to go shopping with you Anne!) - the 3-d effect is fabulous, and what a perfect sentiment too. Brilliant!
Sorry to hear about the car accident - thank goodness you were not hurt. Hope it didn't spoil your holiday.
