Lavinia Stamps "Shrooms" and Pipin Card

Another quick play session with the new release stamps from Lavinia Stamps, I'm using the minimal stash I have here in the caravan, so I'm having to be more creative with the backgrounds. 

I masked off the edges of the card, then multi stamped the Lavinia "Rosemary" stamp in first and second generation stamping using "Leaf Green" Ranger Archival Ink. I then went around the top edge and sides with a blending brush with "Sky Blue" Ranger Archival Ink.

I used Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink to stamp the large and small "Shrooms" and "Pipin" the hare.  I used black ink remaining on my blending brush to create the landscape using the torn edge of a piece of copy paper.

I then used "Nocturne" again to stamp the "Dill" as bushes, using Posca pens to give the impression of flowers, a black fine line pen to add shadows and chimneys to the "Shrooms", a 2B pencil for the smoke coming from the chimneys and a white gel pen for high lights.

Lavinia Stamps Bottle Sticker Stencil and Pipin the hare

Well I am still in the caravan.  We've been here for eight weeks and I've not had my crafting stuff for about three months.  I am missing it awfully.  Because of this, I have bought a few bits and bobs to keep me going.

I have a black Versafine ink pad, a stamping block, some white 300gsm card eight mini Ranger Archival Ink pads, some cheap blending brushes and a couple of bottles of Liquid Pearls.

Lavinia Stamps recently had a stamp release including stamps and sticker stencils. so I of course ordered those, so today I decided to have a play.  I'm not especially happy with this make, for several reasons, but it was the best I could do with my limited supplies.

I used the following Lavinia Stamps: Mini Pipin, Mini Stars 1, Dill & Sage Words, Dill and Sage along with a bottle stencil from the Lavinia "Sticker Stencils 11" set finishing with touches of Liquid Peals.

The word sticker is part of a Funky Fossil Designs word sticker set.
