Welcome to Sunday crafters!
I hope you're all safe after the horrendous weather this week in the UK. Watching the news reports it must be horrendous for some people facing Christmas with the aftermath of a flooded home, it doesn't even bear thinking about does it? My heart goes out to them.
On a lighter note I've got a card for you today that was shown on C&C to promote one of the new stamp and stencil sets from Clarity. I chose to try the technique that Barbara herself discovered, which has brought a new use for a stencil. If you want a step-by-step on how this technique is done please pop over to Barbara's blog.
Materials used:
Stencil - chrysanthemum (7"x7")
Archival ink - black
Stamp - small chrysanthemum
Coloured with promarkers
Stamp - letterbox sentiments
The trick with using fibres is to ensure that you have a really hot iron, a travel iron is perfect. Another tip is to remember to cover the film and fibres with a sheet of wax or greaseproof paper so that the iron doesn't stick to them as it's a fairly lengthy job trying to get it off the iron. I know because I've done it!!!
xx Happy crafting and glittery hugs xx

I love the texture this technique gives. That has done it now. I am off upstairs with an empty Sainsburys box to empty the stuff on my desk into it so I can craft again. I want to have a go at this. Beautiful card. xx Maggie
