Christmas

Hello everyone this months Clarity Groovi Challenge is WINTER FLORALS I thought I would get Jaynes lovely poinsettia  plate out for this so nice to build them up which I have done here I will put list below of what I used to make this project

Clarity starter groovi kit
Groovi Border frame plate /boarder nested tags plate
Boarder perforating plate
Jaynes poinsettia plate
A4 Nested circles and frilly frame plate
Clarity A6 frame plate
Clarity light box
Double side fine tape / Clear foam tape
Perforating tools /snips /  embossing tools /Black board
Clarity Summer parchment / Normal parchment
Faber castell polychromo colour pencil /Tumble drier sheet

Before I start if you are new to parchment just few tips use a tumble drier sheet on the side of the parchment that you will be doing your scoring this will help your tools glide use this side for  white work use the soft side of the board for white work and a soft mat for your perforating which is done on the front of your work snipping on the front as well. when using the coloured parchment  your white work and scoring on the brightest shine side



With the A4 circle score your circles


On normal parchment do two full images of the poinsettias . I used scrap parchment to make the levels of the flowers I made four
to your frame add your ferns every other one
make your tag with the centre of the parchment this is where I changed thing did not think the merry Christmas showed enough so I did another centre piece of the tag and added the letters from the A6 plate frame. With the perforating plate and no 1 tool I added dots to the boarder of my tag
With perforating mat and two pin tool went around my frame and tag


Add coulr to the poinsettias and the frame now perforate the flowers

With the parchment scissors or snips that I use picot all your pieces I added my frame with the double sided tape on the berries to the base card then poinsettias  now build up your flowers using the transparent foam tape hope you enjoyed this thank you for visiting my blog

Winter Pancy Box


Hello everyone this months Clarity stamp and stencil challenge is WINTER FLORALS my idea for this was last Christmas was given this box with truffles in thought keep that for my stash might come in handy which now has give you a list below what I used to make this lets get started

Box to decorate
white tissue paper /Clarity the other card
Distress ink pad wild honey / sage green
Adirondak pitch black ink pad
Pinflair glue gel / MOD PODGE matte glue
Glamour dust crystal / old course nail file
Anitas 3D clear gloss finish /Promarkers
Clarity Pansy stamp from the set of multi flower stamps
Clarity leaf stamp from Jaynes rose set  
old paint brushes for glue and varnish



  Shown pictures of this from top and side so you can see what I have done
 
With the base of the box ruff it up with the old file wipe off the dust rub the Green ink pad over it leave to dry
white tissue paper scrunch few layers brush the lid with the Mod glue add the tissue then go over with the glue again put a side to dry

Now stamp multiple pansy's and Leaves

Box is dry so distress it with the  honey ink pad add straight to the tissue paper
 

Colour your flowers and leafs with promarkers colour just past the flower and leafs so when you cut out if you miss a bit not got white card left behind

With pin flair glue and cocktail stick add blobs of the it on the bottom of the flowers mount them up till your are happy don't press them down as you want some height then again with one layer of the leaves around the pansy's wait till dry need to put work on old paper so don't splash any think that don't want to ruin
With an old plate brush mix water with the 3d gloss just to thin it slightly brush all over the flowers leaves and tissue paper then very lightly while still wet sprinkle the glamour dust over the flowers hope you enjoyed what I have made Thank you for visiting my blog xx
