Luckily on the way back from Edinburgh we called at a craft shop and I couldn't resist buying some Clarity Stamps. Barbara Grey is one of my favourite crafters - I hope I've done her stamps justice.
Materials used:
White linen cardstock to make a 5.3/4" square card
Clarity Stamps
Distress inks
Triple embossing powder
This is the back of my card - I thought the images were too good to waste, what a nice finishing touch it makes!
Inside the card I used two more of the images and a PC generated message.
I'm going to entry this card in a challenge from ???? when I remember where I saw "what's your favourite technique" challenge.

Beautiful card Iks...amazing how covering it in a couple layers of clear emboss makes the image sharper. Never fails to astound me.
This is beautiful! I love Clarity stamps and you have done this one justice.

Beautiful card Eileen, I love the triple embossing on the image and a great idea using the smaller images. See you soon
Beautiful card. The image really stands out and carrying the black through to the inside and back of the card really sets it off. Jaqui x
