This week Linda
Ledbetter has challenged us to make use of the Pocket Watch as set out in
Tim Holtz’s Compendium of Curiosities Volume II. Now I’m hoping that this
qualifies, as it isn’t a proper Tim Holtz watch - I couldn’t get hold of one,
and besides, Crafting Austerity measures are still in place. However, the
technique is the same, so here goes…
The heart inside the watch is made from polymer clay using an Art Mould,
brushed with mica powder; I added some watch parts and coiled wire for a
Steampunk feel. I had hours of harmless amusement coiling wires with a coiling
gizmo – it’s most relaxing!
For details of how to join in, visit Linda’s blog; this week Simon Says
Stamp are sponsoring the challenge, too!

Kenen, this is FABULOUS! What a great watch, and I love the 3D effect you created with the clay heart. What a brilliant piece-- you did an awesome job on the challenge!!!
Sorry about my lousy typing, Keren! Didn't mean to spell your name wrong up there!!!
That is cool!! I love it. =)
Loved everything about your creation, the leopard background just set off
the pretty red heart. I love polymer clay. It was a very ceratie touch in your piece.
