Altered Clock and Jar Candle Lid

I had a really nice time last night with having a few of the girls (Kim, Louise and Catherine) come over last night to stamp with me. I got a bit frustrated as I ruined the first clock that I made, I used Chocolate Chip ink to do the numbers and they just didn't show up well enough, so today I re-did the whole clock face, this time using VersaMark and White Opaque Embossing powder. Now, I think the numbers really pop. I'm quite happy with how it turned out this time. I hope Brenda and Tim like it in their new home together. :)

I also finished the lid to the jar candle last night that I made for them earlier. I borrowed this stamp from Kim and used her Nestabilities to do the scalloped circle layer and the embossed circle. Wow, the Nestabilities are so cool...I really need to get some! ...Perhaps the Birthday Fairy will buy me some next month for my 34th Birthday! :) The Boho Blossoms set from MFT is on my wish list for the near future, as well. It's such an elegant set, I just love it and I think it looks really nice with the 'Tiara paper' on the jar.Well, I only have a couple of hours before I need to go to work and tonnes of stuff to do around the house. I'll be back tomorrow with another creation.

Thanks for stoppin' by! :)
