Clarity Stamps "Three Blooms" Thank You Card

Before attending an appointment this morning, I made this quick card using two Clarity Stamps stencils.

I used "Forget Me Knot" Ranger Archival Ink through the Clairty "Stripes" stencil, changing the direction of the stencil to achive a cris-cross pattern.

I then used "Arctic Blitz" 49 and Market ink through two of the flowers on the Clarity "Three Blooms Stencil".  I then used Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink through the same flowers again to achieve a layered look.

Finally, again using "Nocturne", I stamped the "Thank You" greeting, which is part of the Clarity Stamps "Occasions Sentiment" stamp set.  Adding some dots of "Outragious" Liquid Pearls to the middle of the flowers,

Clarity Stamps "Queen Anne's Lace Striped" card

I couldn't resist a little ebay purchase of a pair of Clarity stencils.  They arrived today, so of course I had to have a little play.  I've used one of the new ones (to me) on this card. 

I used two shades of Archival Inks:  Sunflower and Orange Blossom, through an area of the Clarity 7x7 "Queen Anne's Lace" stencil.

Over the top of that, I lay the Clarity "Stripes" stencil, applying "Monarch Orange" Archival Ink through the stencil making the bottom darker and the top lighter.

Using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink, I stamped the greeting which is part of the Clarity "Entwined Sentiment" stamp set.  

I stamped the sentiment again on a post it note, fussy cut it and popped it over the sentiment on the card.  I then used a fan shaped paint brush to add fine splatters of Dr PH Martin's Bleed Proof white paint.  I then removed the mask and mounted the card onto a grey mat and then a white card blank.
