I really like this stamp and have used it for both of the challenges this month.
First I stamped the bird in black archival ink to give it a crisp, clean look. I made a mask for the bird and added the moon and outer parts of the cloud masks. I then used a stencil brush and stonewashed ink for the sky. I made my own cloud mask from copy paper and inked these in with denim ink. After removing all the masks I painted the bird with espresso. I didn't want to use more colours as I wanted a clean, simple feel to the card. I stamped the greeting and the foliage (first and second generation) in black archival. I am (for once) really pleased with this and plan to make some similar ones as birthday cards for some of my family.
Pretty artwork Sue. Thank you for joining in the fun with your entry to the Clarity Challenge.
