This is one of the first things that I thought of when I saw the pocket watch images. I knew that I wanted to make time fly. So I stamped and colored the whole pocket watch image from the background and then trimmed it out. I embossed some wings from the mini set of the same name. I attached my wings and allowed my time piece to fly. I accessorized with some gold textured paper, black burlap twine and a couple of white brads. A border punch of the top and bottom edges finished off my card.
Hope you have a wonderful day! Don't forget to check out what Sue has in store for you.

Love the theme and the way your time is flying - fun card. The border you chose works so well with your wings.
