Hello! I am on the Blank Page Muse Blog with this simple and easy to create card. This card does not need a lot of supplies. In fact, the cardstock I used are from my stash. I also used one stamp on this card. I used the Blank Page Muse Steampunk Watch Face Rubber Stamp making this card easily reproducible. Most of my time was spent on die cutting the cardstock. You don't have to die cut the squares. You can just trim it to 1 3/4" x 1 3/4". I just like the stitched detail the die created that's why I used it on this project. The die I used is from Mama Elephant. The die cuts a hinge on one of the sides to create a door. Since I am not using this feature, I partially die cut the square on the cardstock. I rotated the die and matched the stitching on the paper with the stitching on the die. I partially die cut the side that I skipped to complete the square cut.
I stamped the clock face on each square die cut using an Altenew Paper Bag dye ink. I arranged the stamped die cuts on a 4 1/4" x 5 1/2" side folding A2 note card. I laid the die cuts more towards the right side of the card front. Once I like the placement, I adhered the squares using a liquid glue to give me some wiggle time in case I need to move the square.
To fill up the left side of the card front, I trimmed a gray cardstock strip at 1/2" x 5 1/2" and adhered it to that open area. For some odd reason, the yellow square is larger that the others. I am not sure why.
I kept this card sentimentless. I can always add a sentiment later on if I want to. There are many possibilities with this card design. You can swap the clock with another image. You can change the colors of the squares. You can embellish the clock with gems. I was tempted to do that but decided against it to keep the card simple and easy to re-create.
I hope you like today's card. Thank you for visiting my blog. Have a blessed, brilliant and creative day!
