Hi Folks! Hope you are all keeping well and hopefully enjoying some sunshine.

Today is the start of a new challenge at Claritystamp and I would like to share with you my Design Sample.
The theme this month is 
In The Garden


This is a very simple card to make
I stamped the Image and the Verse onto Theuva Card 
using Majestic Blue Versafine Ink

I shaded in the lady and flowers using a Polychromos Blue Pencil
Lovely to work with.

I cut the card to form a 15 cm square and
then did a bit of shading around the edges of the card using Cornflower Blue
Archival Ink and one of my Clarity Stencil Brushes


I then went around the edge of the card with a Blue Sharpie and
once more with the Versafine Ink Pad at the very edge.

I know that we don't usually use an Archival ink for shading 
but it was the exact colour that I wanted to use.
Why Blue?............Simply because it's my favourite colour!

Lastly the design is mounted onto a square card blank
using Red double sided tape.

The verse says exactly how I feel about my two lovely daughters
who both live far away.

I hope that you will give this new challenge a go
It is so great to see all your wonderful art work and how differently
you all interpret the theme.

As usual there is a £50.00 Claritystamp Gift Voucher 
for one lucky winner
All entries are in with a chance!!
