Garden

Hello every one this is the second part of Clarity's challenge for this month which is GARDENS may I start by saying turns out not the greatest photo of this card looks better person. I thought parchment would be good for this challenge shall we begin

Clarity groovi system
Clarity new boarder system
Humming bird plate/and the trumpet lillies plate
new boarder pattern  pricking
parchment scissors / tools
Brads / Polychromo colour pencils
Clarity parchment A5




rub the reverse side of parchment with tumble dryer sheet then  I used the new boarder system makes it so much easier I choose the pattern I wanted with the new pattern prick boarder and number two tool I embossed the dots of pattern on reverse side then turn parchment over so the front is facing you then with pricking tool add the four dots of pattern in-between each one these boarder are great for embossing and pricking

Now still using the larger boarder system I put the garden in on reverse side has nice lettering on this

Now I added the humming bird then placed the trumpet flowers around the parchment

still on reverse side but with your soft side of your board add your white work not pressing to hard other wise will buckle if not white enough you can go back later and redo resting parchment is all ways best helps to stop it losing its shape
With your parchment scissor from the front cut out your little crosses

Now on reverse still but back to the hard side of the board colour when you want on this work


I hope you enjoyed this project thank you for visiting my blog hope I will see you again soon

I used my black ink here first stamping cockerel I masked this then with masking tape around the edges of card to leave a border.

 
Apply The round stencil keeping in place with masking tape
Put touch of Morning dew over the sky, now using a make sponge and cloud mask apply your clouds
 
With torn copie paper I put the hills in using sponge to finish off this bit I added a touch of mud stone for effect



Now using the masking sheet on the opposite side I drew around the inner circle of stencil to make a mask Used this to cover the cockerel area
Now in the corners I stamped my roses masked them then one by one added the rest of flowers found it easier when so many to mask stamp the notelet once then cut through as many as needed don't take so long then

Now I put a light covering of lime kiss over all the area left open now attach your pattern stencil using avocado ink go over area lightly with brush now go overl areas with sponge till you are happy now you can take off all masks and colour your flowers and cockerel with promarker
using fine point with black I did a squiggle line around the out side of work

I put the circle die through the calber machine with parchment then using the reverse  side of the circle rub with tumble dryer sheet Now using the small groovi club system put the Elephants in the circle
I change to large groovi system added the sun and hills added a wider area for the water


Now with texture plate I added the ripples in the water
 Using the soft side of my black  board I used ball tools to whiten the feet  and the hills


 turn board back to hard side  use  colour pencils to colour in the  scene when I finished turned board back to soft using ball tools did a bit of whitening middle ears forehead trunk feet again
With caliber machine and die run the pearlescent paper though  now where you are going to place gems glue the two together using just enough so don't show through then add little bit to add gems put this to one side to dry properly
Now with you water colour paper using Avocado fancy rascal lime kiss put the ink pads lightly over the paper then spray with water give it a little bit time to start to mingle together then put copy paper to absorb the worst of the  water over don't let it dry to much put your stencil over use with stencil brush the lime kiss and avocado ink till happy  now start ripping your sides till got how you would like then the edges add bit of colour roasted chestnut morning dew   then spray a little water not to tmuch don't want to flood it   let it dry

Summer time


Hello everyone, This months Clarity challenge FANCY CUTTING so many uses for this one but this is what I have come up with hope you enjoy this.
This is what I used
Maroon card
Clarity theother card / Gelli card
Clarity stencil Giraffe
Clarity new Africa stamps /Africa wee stamps /Clarity letter stamps
Clarity club stamp summer
Artistry ink lime kiss collection /Distress ink pad Walnut stain
Promarkers /pinflair glue gel / Clarity stencil brushes
Spellbinders boarder strip /calibur /copie paper
Scoring board /Masking tape / double sided tape



Lets get started



Stamp Giraffes using Walnut ink pad Cut square around this piece card apply masking tape around the edges
With morning dew I used the brush added colour till was happy I then tore copy paper to do the hills using avocado making sure that the hills at the back get lighter to get perspective


Take masking tape off using promarkers colour this in and do squiggle line around the out side using fine point promarker in dark brown

Backed this on to piece maroon card

This was my first attempt of running a ink filled stencil through my machine I used Walnut stain using copy paper not to spread ink every where in machine did not come out as dark as wanted but its more distressed might work

With stencil brushes I used orange popsicle Terracotta and roasted chestnut did thius till happy with coverage
Then with Clarity the other card and spell binder die run this through machine worked out with my background where needed to add score lines in the corners I cut squares out so could fit this piece work to the backing card

I set to work adding Time and the wee stamps using morning due added the sky at the top of sky added a bit of aqua fusion to make this appear darker Ripped copy paper for the hills make not to dark as these are in the distance and stamp wild grasses using lime kiss avocado and Wedgewood green


Stamped summer on to theother card using my cutter cut the edges into points coloured this with promarkers used a dark brown promaker chisel end went round the edges to the backing card first I applied to the  strip using double sided tape then the summer I used lumps of pinflair glue gel then added last the giraffes backed it all when dry on the my maroon card hope you enjoyed this as much as I did making this hope you will join me again soon
