art is what you make it

Hello fellow crafters! After looking back into the Clarity Crafts archive over the last few days, I’ve now got an early peek at some fantastic leafy stamps that Barbara is launching tomorrow on Clarity Social TV at 2pm. The detail in these stamps is just amazing and I’ve gone with just one of the 14 images in set 1 for today’s card, picking up the pastel tones from Colorful Options and the CAS style from Simply Clean & Simple.

I took oen of Clarity’s 3.5″ squares of stencil card (there’s a pile of these always sat on my craft desk!) and set about stamping the leaf around the edges using ‘kitsch flamingo’, ‘shaded lilac’ and ‘evergreen bough’ Distress Oxides.

I found the perfect sentiment in the Quotes set 3 stamps, which I added with black Versafine Clair ink. I cut a co-ordinating mount from Antarctica companion paper using one of the ‘film strip‘ nested square doodle frame-it dies. I attached the topper to a 6×6 card blank within a frame that I’d embossed with a square embedder and decided it didn’t need anythng else!

Barbara will have lots more inspiration using these stamps tomorrow – I for one can’t wait to see what she does with them!
