Folk Art Scene on a Pencil Case

I thought these new masks and Folk Art stamps from Clarity Crafts leant themselves to being used on fabric and decided to decorate a plain pencil case that I had in my stash.
Add low tack tape across the 3x3 Round Paths Landscape Mask 2, lift all the elements and place them onto an untreated fabric pencil case from stash.
Remove the low tack tape and add the frame around the elements. Place the mask carrier sheet inside the pencil case.
Remove the sun mask and blend Sun Dazed Archival ink through the aperture.
Replace the sun mask, remove the sky mask and use Morning Glory Archival ink in the same manner.
Work down the mask, replacing and removing masking using Fern Green, Cut Grass, Dirty Martini and Rustic Wilderness Archival inks.
Add the path in Hickory Smoke Distress Archival ink.
Finish the fields in Library Green and Peat Moss Archival inks.
Use the low tack tape to remove the masking and return it to the carrier sheet. Before stamping, add a piece of copy paper to the inside of the pencil case.
Add stamping using trees from the Mega Folk Art stamp set in Jet Black Archival ink. Touch up with a black micron pen where necessary.
Add a truck to the path in the same manner.
Add one of the Folk Art Sentiment stamps in a like manner.
To finish, die cut a frame from Just Grey adhesive backed felt using the 3.5” and 3” nested circle diamonds & dots frame-its frames & panels dies and add the frame around the circle image (attach low tack tape to the front of the frame before removing the backing).
