Where Did the Weekend Go?

Okay, here is the project I was so excited about Friday! In just a few minutes, I made this clock! Talk about cheerful...he's been smiling at us all weekend.

I started with an inexpensive clock from Dollar General.

• Remove the clock from the box, flip over and remove all the screws around the outside which should remove the frame and glass.


• The clock hands come off fairly easily, just be sure to lift them one at a time


• Use the frame as a template, hold pencil straight up and draw a circle

• my clock was larger than 8-1/2" so I layed 2 pieces of cardstock side-by-side so there is a large piece and an extra sliver


• center large piece over clock face and press to get the center mark


• cut or punch a hole in the center


• apply face to the front using hole as a guide for the nose
  
  
• apply Tombow mono adhesive to the back of the orange pieces and let dry


• attach orange pieces to clock front


• pop clock hands back on


• lay glass and frame on top, flip, and put screws back in

Voila!

cardstock: Stampin' Up! Only Orange


face: Decor Elements decorative vinyl Spooky Expressions

Halloween mojo

I have so much mojo I can hardly sit in my chair! This is my third post today so be sure to check the one before because it's the start of my September blog candy!

***

Today's card idea uses the wonderful Wide Oval Punch from Stampin' Up! I love the versatility of the punch. It is not too large, but big enough for images and to make this fun (and easy) pumpkin. The stem is punched with the Modern Label Punch

• The layout is from today's mojomonday 104 sketch. It's a great one for round objects.

This is a 5-1/2"x4-1/4" card with the fold along the top.

• the background was created by randomly inking the diamond Texturz plate before running it in the Big Shot
• each piece of the pumpkin is sponged around the edge before assembling
• ink: basic black, old olive, pumpkin pie
• stamp sets: Sweet Centers (holiday mini catalog), Teeny Tiny Wishes
• cardstock: kraft, whisper white, pumpin pie, old olive
• accessories: 5/8" old olive ribbon (a must have), 1/2" striped grosgrain in pumpkin pie

That's it for me today! Be sure to check out that Halloween theme blog candy.
