CE clock

i finally finished my clock (which i started on september 8th at CE)! =P although we were provided a citron green paper, it just didn't go with any photos of roxy i printed. luckily i went shopping at scrapbooks, etc. the day before and bought some great paper from mme from their "bohemia" line. i saved time matching the photos to the papers the night before but when it came time to choose which one to do, i took forever because i wanted it to come out purrrfect. :) when i finally decided to do this picture of roxy on my bed snuggled in my blanket, i was stuck with how i was going to embellish it. in the sample clocks, heidi used the word "time". coming up with titles is one of my many weakpoints so i kept thinking about using the word "time" but when i look at the photo it looks like roxy is waiting for me like "when is it bedtime mama?" i tried playing with the words in my head (meanwhile everyone is about 1/2 way done with their clocks - lol), i thought of "nap time", then "cat nap time". cute? i think so! :) btw, much mahalos to heidi swapp who created this project for us at CE. even though all of us were provided with basically the same stuff, they all came out vastly different. isn't that amazing? :) i LOVE my clock ... thanks heidi!!!

the only thing i regret is not making a concious effort to take better care of the cover. it's all scratched up (not sure if it came that way) but hopefully the scratches won't be seen too much when it's hanging on the wall. hmm ... pink doesn't really go with my decor but i'm sure i'll find somewhere to hang it. who cares if it doesn't match my place right??? ;)
