Tree Bark Mixed Impressions Background

The latest Clarity Mixed Impressions texture stamps (Trees/Nature) create the most beautiful backgrounds for a card.
Trim a piece of Clarity stencil card to 20cm x 13.8cm. Add Tea Dye distress oxide to the A5 Mixed Impressions Tree Nature stamp and stamp it on the card.
Add some Vintage Photo and Ground Espresso Oxides to the same stamp and add a further layer using a stamp platform for precision.
Add a further layer using Walnut Stain oxide, this time spritz the stamp lightly with water before stamping.
Add a little Versamark ink in places around the edges of the stamp then heat emboss with Aged Taupe embossing enamel.
Add the Clarity XL Fly Away boy in Acorn archival ink.
Add a couple of Barbara’s word stickers and edge them with a brown watercolour pencil.
To finish, mat onto a dark brown A5 card blank.
