Joy with the Clarity Townhouse Three Way Overlay Stamps

Morning everyone great to be sharing another card with you today. This is a card I made for the show with Barbara on Sundays show. I do hope you all enjoyed the celebration for the 25 Years of Clarity.

You will need:
Clarity Three way Overlay Townhouse Stamp Set
Clarity Moon Mask
Clarity 'Joy' Word Chain Stamps
Versamark Black Ink Pad
Metro Grey Ink Pad
Distress Ink Pads: Blueprint Sketch, Chipped Sapphire, Black Soot
Basic Rectangle Die
Copier Paper
Washi Tape
Black Fine Liner Pen
Ruler
White Stamping Card
Chipped Sapphire Core'dinations card
White Card Base

Step 1: Mask off the top edge of your outline stamp with Washi tape, Ink up your outline stamp with Versafine, remove the tape and stamp your design. Allow room at the top of your card to extend the image.

Step 2: Use the positive stamp with Metro Grey ink, I stamped twice to give a stronger colour.

Step 3: Cut a basic rectangle die into your copier paper to form a  mask in line with the stamped lines. Line up and secure to your design. Add the mask included to protect the houses, then add the moon mask in the sky.

Step 4: Using your lightest Distress ink, start building up the colour in the sky, then add more using the other 2 colours, remember less is more when it comes to Black Soot. Keep the colour lighter towards the roof tops, where the moonlight will be.

Step 5: Using the fine liner and ruler, elongate the box frame around the design. Then stamp the 'Joy' partly within the moon.

Step 6: Mount onto a piece of Chipped Sapphire card (remember to gut it with a die to use on another project). Secure this to your base card.

Here is the finished card:
