Clarity Flowers

Hi All,
Wow where has the weekend gone?
I have managed to get cards finished for next weeks celebrations, but that is about as far as it got.
I did however manage to tape Barbara's TV appearance with all of the beautiful artwork from everyone on the team.
As promised here is the full view of the card that I teased you with yesterday.
I stamped and embossed the image in white onto kraft card, and then painted it with Distress Inks.
I used the mask that comes with the stamp to add a little shadow around the image.
I mounted it onto background papers from my stash and added a punched border and some tiny peel-off dots.
As usual I liked everyone elses samples better than my own, well most of them at least.
Bye for now.
Have a good evening, what's left of it that is.
Hugs Kimx

Waxed Paper Resist

Hi All
I hope that you have had a good weekend.
It has been rather wet here today which makes for a very good excuse to craft lol.
I have had several 'Girly' cards to send this last week.
They should have arrived by now, so I think I'm pretty safe in sharing them with you.
They were actually made quite a while ago when I was very much inspired by a colour challenge somewhere out there in Blogland.
I was having fun playing with some waxed paper resist, embossing folders and these lovely bright Distress inks.
As you can see I got rather carried away, and ended up making several cards all with a similar theme.
I rather liked the idea of only using part of the Hobby Art greeting on this card.
The beauty of waxed paper is that if you sandwich it between two pieces of card when you iron it you end up with two pieces for the price of one.
One piece always seems to have a much more defined image than the other, but they are both very useful.
Better get back to work on my DT samples.
Both Hobby Art and Clarity will be on the box next week so I am a very busy bunny.
Bye for now.
Hugs Kimx
