Sadly I needed a sympathy card, so made this one using Clarity Stamps and one of their stencils.
I used the Clarity Stamps "Abstract Droplet Stencil" with Versafine Clair "Cheerful" yellow ink, fading the colour from the bottom right hand corner to the top left.
Using Versafine Clair "Blue Belle" ink, I stamped the Clarity "Dandelions" and the greeting from the "Entwined Sentiment" stamp set.
Finally, I added a few dots of white Ranger "Enamel Accents".
I recently joined the Clarity Stamps "Stencil Club". I received my first stencil and welcome pack today, so of course I had to have a quick play.
The stencil is called "Abstract Droplets" by Clarity Stamps. I used five colours of Archival Inks through the stencil to create the background (Cactus Flower, Violet, Leaf Green, Forget-me-not and Vivid Chartreuse).
For the greeting, I used a stamp from the Clarity "Entwined Sentiments" set, stamped in Versafine Clair "Purple Delight" ink.
I've been away again, home just in time to do one of Eileen Godwin's challenges of create something "Abstract".
I raided my backgrounds file and found a tag I'd made a while back using "Bundled Sage" and "Peeled Paint" Distress Oxide Inks on a cream coloured tag.
I used "Peat Moss' Archival Ink through the Clarity "Abstract Droplet" stencil.
Next I used "Library Green" Archival Ink through the Clarity "Circle Dots" stencil.
Using a fine tip black pen, I drew some vertical lines, then drew some boxes on them, adding dots inbetween the boxes. Some of the boxes I coloured with a gold shimmer gel pen, the others I filled using a black Posca Pen, edging some with a metallic gold pen.
I inked the edges of the tag using Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink before mounting it on to black card.
Finally, I added dots of black Ranger "Enamel Accents" and gold coloured Liquid Pearls.
