The birch trees were the first part, which were then masked with a paper mask extending the birch trees to make a square frame. A small moon mask added, with a "ripped hill" mask to define the sky. Forest ridge stamped trees used for the background trees. I then stamped "Santa's car" NDC97 back issue, however I did not want it too Christmassy. So, I stamped the car on to a post-it, then cut this so the Star which was on the top of the tree was remaining with space to top right, then using the beauty of clear stamps, I stamped the car and tree, so that the star was over the post-it, thus removing the star from the stamp (kind of a reverse mask!) It was a little tricky and I did have to redraw the top of the tree as it looked slightly odd without the star! The base of the birch trees were hand drawn grass tufts using a fine liner. The car and shadow (in front of the trees and the middle of the trees) was coloured with Spectrum noir pencils, with extended car tracks!

Clarity Stamp Challenge June 2016 - Masculine
I have created this card with a Winter theme that I thought suited the masculine theme. I believe some people start planning Christmas cards in June too!?

Clarity Challenge - Nature
This months entry for the Clarity Stamps challenge was created with:
🔹 the tree/branch from the "Joy frame kit" stamp set
🔹2 of the leaves from the "Remountable Split Tree Leaves" Clear Stamps
🔹forest ridge
🔹bunny3.
The sunrise was created by rubbing rose, orange and gold inks on a dry baby wipe, in a circular motion. This is the first attempt using the dry wipe to blend and I was very impressed how well it worked.
I have gone through many sponges in the past, which have disintegrated mid project; perhaps I'm not buying the right sponges? Baby wipes are much cheaper, you can make a nice pad with them, and makes use of the packets of wipes that have become too dry to clean stamps with!
