Hummingbird Clock

Well, I have been having some computer difficulty, okay it's more like computer failure. My computer froze on me the other day and now it won't even boot up. It is slightly frustrating to say the least. I am using my husband's computer to check email, but I don't have access to my normal stuff. I hope we get this computer thing figured out...soon!
I got some crafting in this afternoon and made a clock for my new craft room. We are remodling our basement and in doing so I get a new craft room, which is exciting. It is slow going, but we are working on it so I know it is coming. Anyway, this is the clock that I will hang on my wall. My current craft room doesn't have one, so this will be nice. I got the clock at Target, it was on clearance for about $3. I then used Art Nouveau to spruce it up a bit. The numbers are all cut at 1" and I used my Gypsy to weld the 10, 11, & 12. The hummingbird is cut at 5." I popped up the wing and used a purple pearl for the eye.
