The Versatile Clematis



The Versatile Clematis


And now for something a little different ....





This project was inspired by a post from Bernie Simmons, I have had the ' face ' stamp by Stampendous for some time now but when Bernie posted a pic on facebook recently I wondered if the Oak House Studio Clematis Tower stamp could be used in conjuction with the ' face '. 

Well I for one was pleased with the result. 

Using the Clematis Tower- here is the link  http://www.oakhousestudio.com/ourshop/prod_1408700-Clematis-Tower-unmounted-stamp.html  I stamped the tower on a post it and cut it out for use as a mask this takes a little careful cutting. Then using the Oak House Studio stamping card I stamped the face into place and then used the Clematis tower to stamp the for the first image, take the mask and cover this up then ink up the area you want to use to complete your hair/hat and stamp into place.

Using the Oak House Studio Pure Colour inks I then painted the Clematis in colours of my choice.

These Inks blend well and can also be used to tint the clear sparkle brush pen that I used to colour the face and then the Clematis to add a bit of bling to the image.

I then cut out the image and mounted it onto some backing card from my stash and added some stickles to the neckline of the image.

Thank you for looking 

Love Doreen

    1. Thank you Rachel, I think they work very well with the face but of course they have so many other uses and there is also a Clematis corner that works well with this stamp.

    1. You are more than welcome Bernie and seeing your post reminded me of the idea I had a while back and this does work but proves how versatile this stamp is and there is also a corner stamp that compliments this stamp perfectly xx
