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.
