#HappyDayClarityDay

Hi everyone,

Hope everyone is well as are their loved ones? We are all good at mum's, still staying indoors unless I need to go out for essentials. I'm still not confident enough to venture out for more than that. Yesterday and today would have been the Clarity open days but due to Covid-19 that isn't happening so that everyone can stay safe. However, ClarityStamp headquarters came up with an excellent idea of doing it online where we can still celebrate the open day by sharing our makes on social media and use #HappydayClarityday when sharing our work. If you are not on ClarityStamp groups on Facebook, join them as there is a whole loving, caring and encouraging community that is always ready to help and support you while sharing their beautiful makes. Watch out for the giveaways, blogs, step by steps on :-

Today I want to share with you the step by steps for this Floral Tag card...

Step 6: Emboss lines, scallops and dots from the Nested Scallops Squares Extension plate below the floral border using the Pergamano 1mm embossing ball tool (or Groovi No.1).

Step 7: Emboss the grid design over the Straight Super Fine A4 Groovi Piercing Grid plate using the Pergamano 1mm embossing ball tool (or Groovi No.2). If you want larger dots, use the Straight Basic Bold A4 Groovi Piercing Grid plate (GRO-GG-40528-17) and the Pergamano 1.5mm embossing ball tool (or Groovi No.2).

Step 8: On the back, colour the tag and flower border with Pergaliner B pencil (B14) and blend with Dorso oil.

Step 9: Still on the back, colour the flowers, leaves and between the double square outlines with Perga Colours Exclusives (No.5, No.9 and No.17).

Step 10: From the front, perforate inside the scallops and outside the main card using the Pergamano bold 2-needle perforating tool and picot cut between the perforation.

To finish: Mount the piece on Rainbow River designer paper using brads and stick it on white card. Stick a bow at the top using a glue dot.
