Where has the Time Gone?

Do you ask yourself that question everyday like I do? I have so many things on my to do list.....well it never seems to get done. :) 
I hope you are looking forward to a great weekend.
I have a card for the Creative Corner challenge Paper Piecing with a Twist. I only have a few hours to enter! Yikes :)
Since I'm in a time crunch, my stamped image goes right along with that....
I got a stamp set the other day I had never seen or never heard of the company/artist, Kelly Panacci. The clock faces, hands and phrases are really cute.
So, for the Creative Corner challenge, I paper pieced the clock face but instead of layering it on top, I reversed my layers. The hands are cut from pink passion c/s.
The twist to the challenge was no ribbon and only use 1 embellishment. I love Clean and Simple cards so I loved this part of the challenge. My only embellishment is the black brad holding the hands of the clock in place.
I stamped the background with the SU! well worn b/g stamp. Since the clock frame has a distressed look, I thought I would use that b/g stamp and distress the sentiment piece.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Until next time...
Blessings...

Melina

Oh now this is a beauty - it's so elegant, the clock being the focal point on your card. The colors work together so well, too- a bit of edge to your card but still so elegant! LOVE!!! Big hugs!
