Floral Alphabet Funny for A Footie Fan

Poorly as my team are doing recently, this was the first idea which came into my head when I saw which letters I had been sent from the Clarity floral alphabet to make samples with.  Once a fan, always a fan lol.

Stylised Peacock made from Heart Stamps

Having seen a snail in one of Leonie's stamp sets (see HERE), I saw the makings of a peacock in this set (Altered Hearts).

Cameo Floral Numbers: 40th Birthday Card

I decided to turn the Clarity floral number stamps into cameos against a grungy background for this 40th birthday card.

WOYWW 536: No Change in the Shed

Welcome to my weekly link up with Julia at the Stamping Ground, leader of the WOYWW phenomenon which has been going for over 10 years. 

My desk is rather boring this week I am afraid.  I am in the middle of sample making, so can't show you what I was up to yesterday. 

Eva and I did manage to get together earlier in the day.  This year our timetables do not mesh well at all and we can only get together in the shed once a fortnight.  I did remember to take a photo of the other side of the desk at least.  She has been working on a variety of Groovi parchment projects recently that are all WIPs as you can see.
I haven't got an updated picture of the shed.  The poor weather means that nothing new has been accomplished since last week, unless you count some masking tape being placed around the windows.  On the work front, I have now met nearly every one of my new classes for this academic year and a most pleasant bunch they all are too.
I'll be round to visit either this evening after work or in the morning.  Happy WOYWW.

Alcohol Ink and Acrylic Paint Gel Plate Images through a Stencil

This piece is one that I created at the recent Clarity retreats.  I have used alcohol inks and a stencil on a gel plate before (see HERE), but this was a two part printing technique that was slightly different.  Thanks Barbara Gray!

Four Seasons Card using the Quarterette Dies

This card, using the new quarterette panoramic dies from Clarity was fun to make and looks effective.  It was also prominently displayed during all the shows on Hochanda which I am rather proud of.

Brayering Ink onto Embossed Coated Card: 47 Years

Having had an opportunity at the Clarity retreat to practise brayering onto coated card, I decided to use this technique with the new Floral Number stamps for this anniversary card.
