Rebel With a Cause: A Card

I have been following Deborah Wheeler's example and making full use of the Clarity New Design Club stamps, stencils and dies that I received in 2020. Here I used the April stencil and the December die.

Trim a piece of Clarity stencil card to 5” x 5”. Lay the #71 NDSC stencil over the top and ink Spun Sugar Distress ink through it onto the card.

Lay the stencil back over the top and add further ink round the edges in the same way, this time using Picked Raspberry Distress ink.

Replace the stencil again, this time add interest by stamping in Picked Raspberry Archival ink through the stencil using several of the Clarity Mixed Media Journal stamps and the original Journaling stamps held in the hand.

Cut a mat from black card using the 5.25” nested picot die and mat up the topper.

Add the topper to the front of a 6” x 6” white card blank.

Trim a piece of black card to 3.5” x 3.5” use the Clarity New Design Die club #24 (Ivy Leaves Aperture) to cut out the centre.

Die cut a mat from a piece of Clarity stencil card using the 3.75” nested square picot die and mat the two together.

Add the topper to the front of the card.

To finish, add one of Leonie’s Word stickers.
