Clarity blog Challenge - Monochrome

Treescape Stencil 7 x 7 Inch

Clarity club stamp
Distress ink Walnut Stain
Cream card
Craft card
8x8 white card blank

Here is my card for this months challenge monochrome theme. I chose to use Walnut stain as this year I used this technique on my christmas cards and really loved the colour tone. 
This is how I put my card together:
  1. First I Masked off a square in the centre of my card then stamped my image, added some ground below the tree and work my ink around the mask square .
  2. Next I mask off the stamped area and placed my tree mask on top using a stencil brush I gave a light coating of ink.
  3. After removing the mask I stamped the tree around the edge of the card.
  4. To finish I mounted my artwork, on the craft card I made a watermark with veramark using the same tree stamp.
Thank you for stopping by, good luck everyone.

Easter treats


 Been busy this week using an MDF box which I bought from Harrogate GNPE in March.We had a great time at Harrogate making my first MDF clock on one of the make and take sessions. So I was determined to have another go this time I have made a lovely box for my mum added some chocolate eggs inside for an Easter treat.

Used papers from House of Zandra, and made the flower decoration from bits in my craft stash.
