As Time Goes By

Created for the Sunday Postcard Challenge where the theme is "As Time Goes By".  The background was created with Dylusions Colour Wash Sprays in Vanilla Custard, Cyan Blue & Grape.  This was stamped with a text stamp by Stampers Anonymous in Archival Blue-Violet, then with the tree by Stampotique in Versafine Black.  The Dali style clocks (Octopode Factory) were stamped onto paper and cut out before being glued to the tree, and painted with Cosmic Shimmer Watercolours in Pale Gold and Harebell.  Birds were stamped in the Sky (Visable Image) and pen work added using Posca Paint Pends in black and white.
