May Your Days Be Filled with Beauty Card by March Guest Designer Jane Clark

Well, firstly I would like to thank Samantha and Jennifer for their trust and having faith in me to make cards using the fabulous Newton’s Nook Designs stamps! I have had so much fun making these cards and just as much fun styling them! 

My last card was simple, so this one is totally the opposite!! It’s over the top, for me anyway lol, I’ll certainly not be making another!! 

The idea started out as a subtle background again, with a repetitive stamped image, but, it turned into this fully coloured scene with lots of ladies, puddle reflections and raindrops!! My creative brain just went into overdrive!! 

Anyway, I stamped the girl with the umbrella image from Newton’s Nook Designs Load of Blooms set on white card using Memento tuxedo black ink. I covered her with a post-it-note mask, then stamped her another five times using the second generation of ink as shown. 

I coloured the first stamped image with Copics in vibrant shades and used soft tones for the other ladies, then I fussy cut the panel of ladies. I sponge white card with Distress Inks - tumbled glass and chipped sapphire, then glued the girl panel towards the bottom as pictured. I stamped the feet again aligning them up with the ladies so they looked like the reflections in the puddles. I use a white gel pen to draw puddles and a white prismacolor pencil to create shadows and raindrops. Oh my I could’ve gone further but I stopped there lol. 

I have truly enjoyed being the March Guest Designer and as always....playing with Newton’s Nook Designs Stamps. 

Thanks so much for all your lovely comments and happy creating!

Miss Jane
