Clarity Challenge ....... Animals

Good Morning all!

Thank you for all your lovely entries in last months To be beside the seaside Challenge!!
What a tremendously high standard again!!
Congratulations not only to our winner but to all of you for such superb projects

This month it is all about Animals......


I was asked to do this as a commission for someone who is a Gillie up in the highlands and thought this fitted the bill perfectly. I love doing landscapes and scene building.

I used the Forest RidgeLge Pheasanttree trunkGrasses 1grasses 2Spaniel and Letterbox kit on this Project 

The whole scene was created using Adirondack Meadow and Distress ink Gathered Twigs and Weathered wood. The dogs were merely stamped in 1st and 2nd generation ink to achieve the colour variation in the Spaniels. The Pheasant was coloured by using Distress markers in Faded Jeans and aged Mahogany.

There are a tonne of fantastic ideas by the Design Team over on the Clarity Challenge Blog here
So please take a look and Happy crafting!!

Good Luck to you all this month

Crafty Cheers for now!!

Love 

Rae
