"MY CRAFT TIME" RECYCLED DESK CLOCK

Good morning, and I hope you're all off to a marvelous Monday and a happy week!!!

Today I have this little recycled desk clock I wanted to share with you:


I made the top of the clock from a clear cd cover and used the cd holder as the base for the clock; the Cricut cartridge box and the E machine are from pictures I retrieved from the internet, reduced, printed, cut and covered with acetate;  the face on the clock and the inside base cover is paper, I think, from the LA Creme Stack; and the letters were cut from the Plantin cart.  You may not be able to see it but, of course, I just had to use my Stickles -- I used the black color on the letters and on the face of the clock to give it some glitz.

To give you a better idea of the size of the clock, I took this picture next to an actual Cricut cartridge box:


Now, all I have to do is find/make a place on my desk to place it!  LOL!

I hope you like my project.  Thanks for stopping by, I'll be back soon, so...

I'll be seeing you!

Unbelievable! I like how your mind works. I would also have a hard time trying to find a spot to put on my desk, but also so the cat wouldn't play with it.
Great creation to share.
