Time Flies

This week DT member Sandra challenges us to be inspired by time. From clcocks to gears to challenging yourself to create a project in a specific amout of time - the choice is up to you. The clock is already ticking down to the time left to finish this challenge!. Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge cannot wait to see what you spend your time creating this week.

I found this dressform lying around in my craft room and was really inspired to decorate it for this weeks challenge. I began by covering the dressform in Tissue Tape and then colouring with Brushed Corduroy Distress Ink and then applying a coat of Claudine Hellmuth's Multi Medium Matt to seal.

I added a skirt using Tim Holtz fabric which also included clock faces. I added touches of colour to the fabric using Walnut Stain Distress Stain.

I added a Prima Flower Clock to my dressform, coloured with Ginger Alcohol Ink and sanded to age. A Clock Face has been added to the centre of the Prima Clock along with a Game Spinner and I also included wings to the back.  A Locket Key has been added attached with a Jump Ring.

I have also included a Word Band at the waistline again coloured with Alcohol Ink. Mini Gears have also been added for further interest and to add to the steampunk feel.

A small cupid has been included colouring with a touch of Treasure Gold Olive Bronze Wax.

A lock has been affixed to the top along with Label Letters to add 'Time Flies'.

I have added a further timepiece to the top of my dressform, perfect for our Tick Tock challenge.

For more great ideas please pop over to the Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge blog and take a look at my fellow team members art work, they have created some inspirational projects. Remember there is also the chance to win a $50 prize from Simon Says Stamp.  I always look forward to seeing your creations each week.
