Lavinia Stamps "Tilly and Tango" Card


 

This was a quick monochrome card using Lavinia Stamps and a Funky Fossil stencil. Throughout all of this card, I have used Versafine Clair "Monarch" purple ink.

I used the Funky Fossil "In the Spotlight" stencil with Versafine Clair "Monarch" to create the background "spotlight" area'.  I then used the same ink through the Lavinia Stamps "Filigree" stencil over the top to get the over all pattern.

Using "Monarch" again, I stamped the Lavinia mouse pair called "Tilly and Tango".  I then stamped the Lavinia "Star Cluster" and finally the sentiment, which is part of the Lavinia "Heartfelt Verse" set of stamps.

I added a few dots of white gel pen to the stars and for the eye area, with a touch of pastel pencil to ground the mice.

    1. This is the link to the stencil https://www.funkyfossil.co.uk/product-page/in-the-spotlight) it comes in three pieces. I used some low tack tape to position the spotlight ray and the floor stretched oval shape. I then coloured all the area around it, so that when the two stencils were lifted it left the spotlight. I then put the Lavinia "filigree" stencil over the top and coloured the whole area, before stamping the mice and stars.
