Hello - blog time again! Today's project - 'The Vase.' I very much wished to use the large stamp from the 'Whatever You See' set and this is the end result.

The Vase

Materials:-

• Cleverprints Stamps - 'Whatever You See,' 'Not a Weed'
• Watercolour Pens - Blue, Purple, Red, Pink, Green - Light and Dark, Yellow
• Black Ink Pad
• Self-adhesive Gems

Stamps from https://cleverprints.co.uk

Instructions:-

1. Ink large stamp from 'Whatever You See' and stamp onto cardstock, leaving the lower lines off the page. 

2. Ink upper lines only and over stamp image to create more stems.

3. Stamp flowers from 'Not a Weed' set at the end of each 'stem.' 

4. Scribble watercolour markers onto craft mat or stamp block and colour 'vase.'

5. Continue colouring stems and flowers. 

6. Stamp background with stamp from one of the sets. Colour to suit.

7. N.B. Here I stamped another vase to decoupage - but in the end decided against it. 

8. Stamp several flowers, trim and add to vase and stems. 

9. Add gems to flower centres.

10.   . . . And there we have it, ready for a sentiment. 

Thank you again for looking in. 

Best wishes and happy crafting!
