This is for a challenge I do with some crazy double dare friends. This week Julia (artystamper) challenged us to use a timepiece on our card. I don't have any timepiece stamps, but I did find this old timepiece designer paper in my stash! Woo-hoo!
I colored my stamp with markers and stamped off three times. My sentiment is computer generated. On all of my papers, including the dp, I sponged More Mustard and Close to Cocoa around the edges. Oh yeah, I used the SU arrow punch for the hands on the clock!

What? Are you sending me a subtle message that I could get more done at work if I used my time right? Bwahaha! Maybe if my computer got taken away....that would do it!
This is awesome...so glad you had what you needed on hand! It is a wonderful card with a wonderful message but I probably will disregard what it is saying.......

I was gallery gazing and this caught my eye right away. It had such an interesting quality that I had to see what you were up to!!! Beautifully done. Love your placement and color choice (I just have to find that distressed folder!!). Great sentiment too. Maybe you should submit it as a layout for Rox's sketch challenge...

This is a fabulous card for the challenge, Charlene. I love your incredible eye for details and placement. Love everything about this!! Looks like I need the arrow punch now I thought they were all big scrapbooking sized ones. This one worked out perfectly on your clock.
