Hello. Welcome. Here's a recap of the DT piece I made for Rubber Dance this month. A great idea for a gift, especially if you have an old boring clock at home. Or maybe you were in IKEA and bought a cheap one? I did that!! With a little bit of altering it becomes a whole different animal. Maybe a gift, or maybe for me hee hee.
I was inspired by this months challenge colours at Rubber Dance, and there's still a few hours to join the fun if you aren't too busy spooking.....
I started with a cheap clock
I disassembled it and coloured with raisen, caramel and bottle alcohol inks. I had to paint the back of the clock white cos the plastic is translucent and so are the inks.
I stamped and embossed the animals from African Animals on glossy paper, coloured with caramel, mushroom, slate and ginger alcohol inks and fussy cut.
On the background I have used stamps from ATC Backgrounds 1 and Norwegian Funny Birthday with distress inks. The numbers are from the new Rubber Dance set Pick A Number and were the perfect size and look for my clock.
A little difficult to see but the alcohol inks give a lovely colour and texture.
Thanks for your visit. You can find all the stamps in the Rubber Dance shop

What an amazing transformation and great idea to use the Alcohol inks. The Safari animals look adorable on this.
