Challenged... again!

So it looks like I might have got the challenge bug!  I found a great little challenge on the Artful Times blog hosted by Neet and Von, and just had to join in.

Challenge 21 is all about creating an ATC based on Time... and so here is mine!

I started by using Alcohol Inks on glossy card and then used blending solution through a stencil to create a ghost clock image. I then stamped off the edges of the card using a Tim Holtz clock stamp and Ranger Archival Ink in Coffee and also inked the edges of the card.

 
I finished the ATC with a printed and inked phrase and added Tim Holtz metal clock hands to the ghostly clock image. 

 
Thanks for the challenge Neet and Von look forward to seeing what everyone creates!
