Metal Medallion!

Ok not so much medallion as altered pocket watch, 
but it's kinda similar, in a not so much kinda way lol
Simon Says Stamp'n'Show wanted to see some 'Metal' and i'd had these old watch cases for months sitting waiting for inspiration to strike. 
Well it finally did with a Tim rosette and some metal flowers and butterflies.
And this is what it turned into...
Think this has enough metal to qualify don't you!
Thanks for hopping by.
