All through the 2 days we worked on a clock which involved Ten Seconds Studio metal, Metallic paints, Glimmer mists, and more. Here is my clock in various stages of its completion. The face was covered in Terra, a wonderful medium which has texture, and can be stamped into. Lots of Glimmer mists ( which never show up in the pics) and Viva metallic paint applied by fingers finish it off. My hands were the normal, messy and stained by the time I had finished.
The rest of the clock had metal pices we woked on throughtout the weekend. We ran the meatl through the cuttlebug or worked on with Ten Seconds Studio moulds. We glimmered and metallised the pices. The numbers were stamped with PaperArtsy stamps and textured with wheels and pointy tools, and sandwiched on card ( I shall show you this technique another time) . I have just noticed one of my numbers on the clock is upside down.. the 9 is the 6 and should be round the other way! Feel a fix coming on! The background board was covered in paint and glimmer mists and stamped on.
Have a great day!
