Stencilling and Silhouettes

Last Saturday I did an online workhop with Eileen Godwn using Lavinia stamps and stencils.. I have wanted to do one of her worshops for a long time but they are too far away, so Covid has done me a favour! I had a great time making the four designs. The workshop samples were one layer cards but I made mine on a piece of card - just in case I messed up, which I did on two of them but I simply turned the card over and redid them. No wastage! 

The following day I mounted them and turned them into cards.  I didn't have all the stencils or stamps so there is a bit of improvisation!





I will definitely be doing the next one in December.

Flower Trail



I've noticed while entering challenges that the majority of cards entered are of the cute variety. So have decided to be different today and made this card in the Tracy Dutton of Lavinia Stamps style! I have stamped the leaves in Versafine vintage sepia and the flowers are stamped in Brilliance pearl orchid and pearl purple and Versacolour Orchid on pale pink pearlised paper. Then I added liquid pearls and pink glitter. I mounted this on brown coredinations cardstock and added to a white DL card. As the theme on SimonSays Stamp challenge is pink and brown I am entering this. Hope you like it!

Fairy Toadstool House



Here is today's card. I've brayered the background having first masked out the moon. Coloured that with Diamond stickles glue applied with a paintbrush. The toadstool, leaf trail and bluebell are Lavinia stamps and the butterfly stamp is from Elusive Images.

Dandelions

I just love this dandelion stamp from Lavinia Stamps. It was the first one I bought and is so easy to use and get different effects. The green and brown one was stamped with Versafine Vintage Sepia and Spanish Moss and simply mounted on brown pearlecent card then onto green. The second one I brayered the background with Tim Holtz Distress Inks in Vintage Photo and Mustard Seed, then stamped the dandelions in versafine Onyx Black. The lighter ones are simply a second image.

Brayered Backgrounds - again

I promised to upload the third card I'd made using the brayered backgrounds and Lavinia stamps after a forum friend had received it. As it's her birthday today I can now show it. happy Birthday Jane!

Brayered Backgrounds

I have spent the last few days playing with brayer and inkpads. After a few false starts and a full waste bin I was finally satisfied with the results. Here are two of them - the third will have to wait till next week after it has been received by a forum friend for her birthday. Inspiration from Lavinia Stamps. I used some of their stamps plus one from Dovecraft and one from Art Impressions.
