Clarity Challenge December 2016 - Carol Singing and Christmas Joy







I used my favourite Carol for this one, just some basic stamping with a little gelly roll glitter pen on elf and Santa's sleigh, although it doesn't show up in photos!

November Clarity Stamp Challenge - A blast from the past

Clarity Stamp Challenge - A blast from the past


This is one I was going to enter earlier in the year and didn't get it posted in time so I thought I'd use it for this one as it really is a blast from earlier this year !

Clarity Stamp October Calendar Challenge

Clarity Stamp October Calendar Challenge


I'm really pleased with how this has turned out even though I didn't have the right trees, I used the bare trees and the mantles.  First time I've made up my own ink pad too.  When it came to it I decided not to put the sun in as I was worried I'd spoil the effect due to the fact I haven't got a circle punch (would be handy and now on my list) and I hadn't got any decent shade of backing paper to match in.  I was a bit disappointed with the orange edge, it would probably mix in better with a backing paper and I might do that at a later date as I've only stuck down with glue dots.  I love the big tree without the leaves though and, as many of the trees around here are on their way there I thought it still appropriate!   The writing was a bit of a worry and glad I followed Barbara's advice and used a pencil first.  There was still plenty of rubbing out I can tell you.  However, overall I love the colours and some of the perspective in this which was probably more lunch than judgement!
