More play time

Hello all! How are you? We're good today - we've had a lazy day. We had to wait in for the rat man - as it turns out I should be calling him the mouse man!!! He reckons it will be virtually impossible to make the house inaccessible to mice - so I will have to just keep vigilent for signs of them. Given they've been under the floorboards if I don't hear them or they don't eat any pipes I suspect that will be quite tricky. But at least its not rats - which would have meant broken drains!!!!

Whilst I was away my clarity stamp and stencil for this month arrived and today I had a play with them. My card is similar to one of the suggested ones in the blurb that comes with it - but I have used the stamp and the stencil together.


I think the set are pretty magical...that stamp is just gorgeous and the stencil is going to prove very useful I think.


I stamped the image then masked it and a moon before creating the background from distress.  I stencilled in the trees and coloured the image and 'moon'. Finally I added the sentiment from a new Tim Holtz stamp set.

Hope you have a great Friday night!

Hugs
