I feel so inspired that I have made this two things.

With this LO I try to say, what my heart is feeling. Don´t think to much with my brain and go straight. Be strong hold on to my dreams.
The words are the beginning… my minds is my story. And if I can give it a chance, the words become wings.
Beautiful words and inspiration for us all to let go and be free.

With the canvas I tried to show my thoughts about friendship. Friendship always needs something to grow. Every friendship needs something different.
And a friendship is never black or white. A friendship also needs wings, and give wings. And a friendship that give wings, never ends.
Even if you never see each other. The wings are in your heart. This symbolizes the clock stamp.

That´s my outing! I´m a clock-freak!


I want to be open with you. I´m a clock-freak! Oh yes! My grandmother has already collected watches, my mother has collected watches and I, yes I also collect watches! But I do not collect them as jewelry, like my mother before me, I love to put them on my Mixed Media projects! What is not less crazy, ha! ;-)
It was a crazy fun to play with the new clock stamp from ScrapFX!

Here you can see the white stamp of dandelions.  That´s avery little but much pretty impression.

When I use the clock stamp, I try my old but lovely technique, to stamp with another stamp on it.
This gave the black effects on it.

I love mail art. It is such a wonderful contrast to the electronic post!
I used the clock stamp again. The color is a dark red acryl ink. At first I put gesso on my envelope, with a old book page. Than stamp on it with the dark red acryl ink and distressed and color it with Distress Stain form Tim Holtz. After drying I stamp again with withe gesso on it.
