Lavinia Stamps "Sugar Pine Cones" Christmas Card


 

Another night where I can't sleep, so decided to get up and craft, making this card.

I started with a white piece of card, adding several spritzed Distress Oxide Inks to the surface of the card, using a heat gun to dry each colour before adding another.  The colours I used are: Saltwater Taffy, Fozilized Amber, Tea Dye, Old Paper Vintage Photo and Rusty Hinge.



I then moved on to the stamping.  I have used Lavinia Stamps through out, stamping in Versafine Clair Inks.  The colours of inks I have used are: Pinecone, Acorn and Shady Lane.  The stamps I have used are:  Starpine, Sugar Pine Cones, Fir Cone Branch, Cedar and a sentiment from the "Seasonal Words" stamp set.

In the background area around the word "Peace", I have used the Lavinia Stamps Honeycomb stencil with "Sunflower" Ranger Archival Ink.  I have edged the card using "Rain Forest" Versafine Clair Ink and added highlights to the stamped areas using a gold gel pen.
