Clarity Challenge - Love - Feb2016

This is the Valentine card I made for my Hubby, who is so kind and thoughtful and has taken the household reins whilst I have been working away, so heartfelt love to him.

Although it might not be that obvious all of the stamps are Clarity, with a bit of a twist.

The L is quite obvious with the Elegant Lady stamp and the hand drawn shadow.
The O is made from the leaves from the naked tree set, with the addition of the little bird from the birdhouse set (at 10 o'clock on the wreath).
The V gave me the greatest challenge with the two sides of the Blooming corner masked off one at a time and stamped at the appropriate angle.
The E is sponged through a letter stencil (of my own making) then the Butterfly from the Butterfly tree stamped through the stencil.

The 4 images were stamped on individual cards then edged with Promarkers to give the impression of greater depth, before attaching to the background card.  The use of a sepia colour joins the individual images.
