Roses


Hello everyone this month Clarity Groovi challenge is ALL THINGS JAYNE NESTORENKO so I chose Jaynes lovely rose for this wanted to show a bit more of the parts I have struggled with the picot and cutting as I am still learning myself hope you enjoy this will put list of the stuff I have used

Clarity parchment
Clarity Groovi Jaynes roses plate
Clarity groovi Jayne frame plate
 Groovi Tina A4 square Flowers and butterfly plate
Groovi starter kit
Groovi border perforating plate
 Clarity groovi boarder plate Henna / banner boarder plate
Grovi boarder plate holder
Black groovi board /
 tools snips two pin perforating tool / single perforating tool
Thin double side tape / faber castell poyochromo colour pencils
New England fall papers /Tumble drier sheet


Before we start use tumble drier sheet on the side you do all your white work and scoring as this will help your tools glide so this is the reverse side of parchment  you use the front side of your work for perforating and snipping out  soft side of board for perforating and white work hard side scoring and colouring hope this helps



 
Lets get started just score the out sides of the frame of the plate

Add your rose to the centre of the frame

 
Add Happy birthday from the frame plate
 
Back using the rose plate again I added roses and leaves around the inside of the plate But not around the Happy birthday





Using boarder holder  plate I added the shape from Henna boader plate to the out side of the frame
Now with the banner border plate I put part of it to fit in around the roses

Now  your white work a little at a time be patient don't do to  much  at a time other wise will  buckle the parchment Then add colour on the reverse but on a hard side of the board. Now with the no 1 tool  and perforating  Boarder plate add dots to the corner I'm afraid I made mistake so got Tina plate out of flowers and made a moth to put over this part we learn by our mistakes



Now to the part I find hard with the two pin perforating tool and your parchment facing the front go around your flowers and leaves and around the outside of the banner and in between the shapes on the outside of frame you can also do around the  very edge I use the snips I find this easier than the scissors but what you get on with is the best I did my picot cutting around the flower first then using fine double sided strong tape added to my papers hope you enjoyed this thank you for visiting my blog

Forever flowers



Hello everyone this months Clarity  stamp and stencil challenge is ALL THINGS JAYNE NESTORENKO what some lovely designs Jayne came up with I decided on my work for this I would have a go at water colour for a change using the colour bursts can I apologise that some of my photos are up side down it is a new phone great one but been having trouble with the soft wear  I will put a list of what I used below

Water colour card
Ken Oliver colour bursts
Paint brush water / plate mix colours / paper towel
Letraset aqua markers
Versafine permanent Onyx black
Clarity sentiment stamp 
Clarity stamps Jaynes Dahlias
Distress ink pad tumble glass/ Clarity stencil brush

Lets get started


 With the permanent ink I Stamped the flower in the middle first so that could just fit the other two flowers in the corners with no problems

Now add the butterfly and the sentiment

I used the blue first mixed the colour burst on my plate only use a little powder goes a long way made it watery can always add more dabbed my paint brush around. at times I used kitchen roll if  its to wet or to dark dab the card  I carried on with this it felt had enough then added bit red to the blue did the same again

to the lower end of the card was  more red but still watery
 
 Now with fine paint brush and the colour bit more intense, colour in the flowers and leaves once I got this done felt just needed a bit more so I used the aqua makers to add shade to the flowers once completely dry.  use stencil brush and tumble glass ink pad went around the out side of the card felt this added a bit more to the card hope you enjoyed this card thank you for reading my blog.
