Lavinia Stamps "Fairy Chain" Card



I've used another one of the backgrounds I made the other day using Amanda Branston's alcohol inks on gel plate technique to make this card.

Again, I have used a selection of Lavinia Stamps:  Fairy Chain (large), Red Pines (large and small), Forest So Green verse, Small Branch and Foliage Set.  I've also used the Lavinia Moon and Hill masks.

I've used five shades of Versafine Clair Inks:  Nocturne black, Morning Mist grey, Shady Lane green, Warm Breeze teal/turquoise and Purple Delight.

I've added extra colour to the picture using Van Goch Pastel Pencils, Posca Pens and assorted gel glitter pens.

    1. Thanks so much Annie. It's a fab technique and nice to put the alcohol inks to use after them sitting in the back of the drawer for years x

  3. This is absolutely beautiful Sam and I just had a look at Amanda's video, and I like the fact that this is using ordinary card and not the more expensive pieces of Yupo, and I love the pretty scene over the top with some added hills and extra details. x

    1. Thank you. I agree it is a great way to use the alcohol inks without the expense of the yupo paper x
