How about a trad stamping scene

using Jayne’s wonderful Winter Scene stamps?

Let’s use the coated Claritycard, A5.

Run lowtack tape around the edges for a frame

and add a large moon mask.

Load your brayer with Blue Chase Artistry ink

and roll the sky into place.

Add some more Blue Chase Artistry ink to your blending mat

and ink up the stamp directly from the mat.

This will give you a more subtle image. Good idea,

especially when working with a new ink pad.

Stamp the scene to the bottom.

Clean the brayer, add Old parchment

and roll up from the bottom to meet the blue.

Here, I have already removed the moon mask and the masking tape,

and gone round the outside with a black Micron pen!

Oh! And I’ve even added 2 overhead cables!

Draw the little birds on the wire,

and stamp in Peace at Christmas with a Black Adirondack

or Black Distress pad.

Using a ruler, draw a second outer line with the Micron pen

and then dash around all four sides.

Infill every other box in the frame.

Colour in the gate with a promarker,

add a little glitter to the trees and bushes.

I coloured in the trees etc with a Wink of Stellar

and then sprinkled Glamour Dust over the wet ink.

All done.

The funky border really gives it a lift.

Must dash.

I really must make a list of things to do

before the kids arrive from the States at the weekend!
