It's About Time!

I hope you had a chance this weekend to enjoy the Happy Be Scrappy Online Crop over at Just Cre8. The inspiration was flowing all weekend, and the challenges, tutorials and fun were all non-stop. One of my projects this weekend was teaching an "It's About Time" Altered Clock class. I taught two different methods - to the left is a clock that has an acrylic or glass covering. If you didn't see it on the weekend, click on supply list, then head to Part I and get started on your own!
With a clock that doesn't isn't covered, it's fun to hang elements over the edge. I made this clock for our son's 9th birthday, so I distressed it for a rugged look. Part II teaches this style of clock. Steps for the Sisters clock, above, are shown in Part III. I also hosted a 3-part Journaling Challenge this weekend, and was awed by the layouts and journaling shared. I'll post more about that soon, but until then, check out the awesome crop gallery here. Browsing it is so inspiring!

Something else to look forward to this week is my latest DT kit from Scrapalicious! It's almost wedding season, and I'm going to be creating a beautiful wedding album using one of Fancy Pants' wonderful new mixed media books and the stunning new Basic Grey Wisteria. A peek of that is coming, so check back soon!
