Monochrome Ducks

Monochrome is the theme for the April Clarity Stamp blog challenge.  I've already used these silhouette duck and sapling stamps using shades of blue but for my entry to the challenge I've used shades of pink/red.  Using the arched window stencil and Clarity Card I created the background by brayering Aged Mahogany for the ground and Worn Lipstick Distress inks for the sky.  The duck and saplings have been stamped with Archival Plumb ink. For the border I've stamped the large sampling tree with worn lipstick around the edge and matted onto some dark red card.


I am entetring this card into the following challenges
Clarity Stamp Blog Challenge - Monochrome
Vintage Stamping Challenge - Anything Goes
Paula Holifield Blog Challenge - Birds and Bees
