Mini, Mini Landscapes

For my first samples using one of the new mini landscape stamp sets from Clarity Crafts I decided to create some mini cards.

Choose two of the backgrounds created in the Alcohol Ink on a Gel Plate workshop.

Trim them to ATC size (2.5” x 3.5”).

Add the castle to one and the tree and bench to the other in Jet Black archival ink (50030).

Add the cottage at the foot of castle hill and the signpost on the other in the same ink.

Use a 03 black micron pen to add further lines to complete each image.

Colour the images using Faber-Castell Polychromos (#181, #273, #274, #146 Essentials (31031), #131 Winter (31903), #142, #167, #178 Autumn (31902)).

Add a sentiment to each topper in Jet Black archival ink.

Add a narrow strip of Amazonia companion paper (31696) to the front of two 4” x 4” white card blanks.

To finish, edge each topper with a black Sharpie pen and add one to the front of each card blank.
