Mini event/challenge project.........D

This is really quite a quick post. Todays mini project is to alter a CD. 

I covered the cd with texture paste loosly mixed with gold and brown acrylics to make it look marbled.  After it was dry I sprayed with with cosmic shimmer and gold.  

I used a TH die for the clock and hands.  I painted them in the same way and used a little varnish over the top.  I stuck the clock face to the cd using silicone and the hands to a pocket watch face from Crafty-Emblies after using rock candy over the top.  I finished it off with a mini button also from Crafty-Emblies covered in glossy accents.

I attached a substantial sized chain from which to hang it.




Thats it from me for now... I hope you enjoyed my mini project
