Clarity Meadow Dance Stamps and My Blog Header

These aren't the sort of stamps I normally go for but there's just something about them that I love.  I was really pleased when I saw that I had them to make samples with for HSE 24.  The first thing I did was find out that the words meant "After the rain comes the sunshine".


I suppose it's a bit like the English "Every cloud has a silver lining".  

I decided to focus on the sun and make it a big, bright one!  I used Spiced Marmalade and Mustard Seed Distress Ink pads to create it and Tumbled Glass for the sky.  The corners are Spellbinders Persian Accents.


I also made a dinky little gatefold card.  It measures 5' x 5"when it's closed.  One of the Persian Motifs dies was perfect for a big sun on the front of the card.


Inside I made a bright Summery scene to go with the characters.  When I'd finished I thought it would be perfect for my blog header as it makes me smile whenever I look at it.  I'd like to be there with them.  Luckily I hadn't folded it so I was able to get a photo of it without the creases.
