I masked, stamped, embossed, and watercolored the flowers in the center and cut out the whole group. I stamped the lilac spray on the teal background and attached the flowers in the center. The dots are white glossy run through the Xyron, colored with Krylon gold pen, circles punched, and mounted in appropriate places. The finishing touch was adding the dragonfly to the second hand and finally, reassembling the clock.

Very cool!
I was going to stamp on a clock face but I had such a hard time getting it apart that I just threw up my hands and said forget it. Did you have any problems? The clock I had was a cheap one from Wal-Mart.

This was a walmart clock and I could never get the face off, so I just put mine over it. The second hand was hard to get off, but the other two hands were very easy. I pried gently on the second hand with my pocket knife then pulled it straight up. Finally got it off. Everything else was very easy.
