Clarity stamping !

I should have posted this last week but forgot!

Some friends of mine from the Imag-e-nation forum (which is closing next week) meet from time to time for a day of crafting and chat and sometimes just coffee and shop but whatever it is we always enjoy each others company and have a laugh along the way --lol !

We had a treat last week as one of the demonstrators in the shop we like to go to (Strikes Garden centre in Bournmoor, Durham ) is a fan of Clarity stamps by Barbara Gray and the shop also stock them. They are lovely stamps on there own or you can use more than one to build a picture by masking different areas of the pic and also use other techniques like braying and sponging to build a picture.

I got the opportunity to try the tecnique out and this is the finished result, it is just a raw project and needs to be made into a card but i think i will just keep it on the wall in my craft room.





I also made this card for my sister who is feeling under the weather to cheer her up, she loves pigs so thought this would make her smile ! 
I stamped the image at a friends crafting get-together and colourd it in with Watercolour pencils ----- loved the finished card !




I think its a nice cheerfull card !  Hope you like it too ----
