Bird Clock

Here is another clock I have made. This one is for a girlfriend's mother-in-law. It's her birthday next week. I'm not as happy with it as I could have wished. The rubon moved when I was rubbing it on and then after using my Crystal Effects to glue the flowers and leaves on, I stood it up. Came back later to find the jolly stuff had run down the inner square edge and formed a big blob!!!! Panic!!!!! So I added some more pearls to the edges of the square, the rubons in the other square and just hope that it looks alright. I couldn't add any rubons because there wasn't enough room and I like to seal them under a coat of mod podge before adding embellishments.

I fly out tomorrow to Brisbane for the Scrapbooking and Papercraft Expo. Kerry and I have classes booked and are so looking forward to seeing everyone we know to have a chat, coffee etc.
Waving at you Kim, Chrissie, Jane and everyone else.
So see you all when I get back on Tuesday.
Thank you to everyone visiting my blog, all your visits and comments are very much appreciated.
