vintage steampunk clock (three muses challenge)


I bought a graphics 45 steampunk paper pad last Saturday and was determined to make something with it and not just look at the paper! To avoid cutting up the image I have made a clock. My husband gave me a collection of old washers from when he used to have old vintage Triumph motorbikes so have glued them onto some old copper 2p pieces with some old fashioned numbers. I usually add loads of layers to everything but thought all this needed was some threads around the edge as the picture is very busy. Be sure to check out all the other vintage entries this week at Three Muses
