South Downs Scene

I am totally in love with these new stamps and mask sets from Clarity Crafts.  Here I used the South Downs Treescape set to create a card.

Die cut a topper from Clarity stencil card using the 4.5” nested square film strip doodle frame-its frames & panels die.

Mask off the edges using low tack tape and add all the sections of the South Downs mask to the topper.

Remove the bottom strip and brush Pine Needles Distress ink across the aperture.

Replace the bottom mask, remove the next one up and blend Peeled Paint Distress ink across. Repeat, completing the hills with Bundled Sage Distress ink.

Remove the moon mask and blend Mustard Seed and Fossilized Amber inks around the aperture.

Replace the missing masks and reveal the sky. Add clouds using the hills and clouds mask from the Build A Scene mask set in Stormy Sky Distress ink.

Remove all but the bottom mask. Add the trees from the South Downs Treescape stamp set in Vintage Photo Distress archival ink. Remove the mask.

Add the couple and one of the dogs in Jet Black Archival ink.

Add the sentiment in the same ink.

To finish, die cut a mat from black card using the next size up film strip die. Mat up the topper and add it to the front of a 6” x 6” white card blank.
