Clarity Stamps "Bijou Art Nouveau" Card



Here's a card I made using a couple of Clarity Stamp goodies.

For the central image, I used one of the Clarity "Art Nouveau Collection" stamps, stamped in Versafine Clair "Morning Mist' grey ink.  I stamped the sentiment within the main image stamp using Versafine Clair ""Twilight" dark blue ink.

I coloured the image using the following colours of Derwent Inktense pencils:  Cadmium Yellow, Malibu, Spring Green, Felt Green and Poppy Red.  I then mounted the stamped image on to a piece of dark blue card.

On a card blank card, I placed the Clarity "Abstract Squares" stencil and used two shades of Distress Ink through the stencil (Lost Shadow and Tumbled Glass).

I then mounted the stamped topper on to the card blank.

Clarity Stamps "Leafy Swirl" Stencilled Birthday Card


 

For some reason I couldn't sleep, so was up 4am and decided to craft. I've used four Clarity stencils and two of their stamp sets for this card.

I started by masking of the vertical and horizontal edges of the right hand side of the card using a low tack masking tape.  I used "Sunflower" Archival ink through three of the rectangles in the Clarity "Abstract Squares" stencil.

I then used "Tea Rose" Archival Ink through the striped section of the Clarity "Birds Decorative Panel" stencil in two different directions over the yellow rectangles.

Next I used "Shadow Grey" Archival Ink through the Clarity "Zig Zag" stencil fading the colour out towards the left hand side of the card.

I used two shades of Ranger Archival Inks (Cornflower first and then Vivid Chartreuse) through the Clarity "Abstract Droplets" stencil, again fading the colour out towards the left hand side of the card.

I stamped the Clarity "Leafy Swirl" and the "Entwined Sentiment" using Versafine Clair "Twilight" dark blue ink.

Finally, adding a few finishing touches, by using a gold shimmer gel pen to go around the edges of the droplets and adding some white "Enamel Accents" to break up the colour a little.
