Clocks Bday card

Created this Clocks Birthday Card for a man.

Used sketch at Die Cuttin Divas. Limit is 3 and I entered 2 earlier so this makes 3rd. I turned the sketch 90 degrees to the right.

Used Kraft cardstock as base, off-white Kraft cardstock for layer, DCWV Clocks scrapbook paper for layer, more Kraft cardstock for layer, dark brown Kraft cardstock for sentiment tag and off-white Kraft cardstock for sentiment tag.

Used Tim Holtz Clock embossing folder from the Steampunk Set. Sanded, distressed edges, misted the embossed area with water and used Distress Ink on embossing & edges.

Used Spellbinder Standard Circles for sentiment tag (had to get a die in there for Die Cuttin Divas sketch entry) & Fiskars punch mat. Used Hero Arts stamp for sentiment. 

Added 5 mini gold brads for metal to complete the sketch.

If you've not noticed by now I like to make the photo setting compliment the card. I've had the red clock for quite some time and it can be wound up with a key and it runs on a battery.

Tag with Metal Embossing Bloom Dots

Created this tag, 1st time at using aluminum foil cut
on Cricut & for metal embossing. Used adhesive to
attach aluminum foil to white cardstock and then
used Cricut to cut tag. Speed =1, Pressure = 4 &
Blade = 5. Going to give the tag to my daughter who
likes Owls along with the Owl plush. Bought the Owl
plush at Petco pet store and it has a squeaker in it.
Shhh do not tell my daughter and when she
squeezes it it will drive Teddy crazy.
