Lavinia Stamps "Sunflower 1" Birthday Card


 

I used a cream coloured card for the base of this card.  Stamping the Lavinia Stamps "Sunflower 1" in Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" and "Summertime" inks.

I then lay the Lavinia Stamps "Red Brick Stencil" over the top of the card and used three shades of Ranger Archival Inks, using:  Cornflower Blue, Leaf Green and Orange Blossom through the stencil.

I used one of the Lavinia "Hill Masks" to ground the sunflower using Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" green ink.  I used the same ink to add tiny areas of text on the wall area using one of the Lavinia "Spirit Signs" stamps.  I then stamped the sentiment using one of the greetings from the "Heartfelt Verse" set of sentiment stamps.

I coloured the sunflower using  various shades of Distress Oxide inks.  Adding finishing touches with a gold coloured gel pen and a Posca pen.

  3. What a terrific card Sam, and love the colouring of the pretty sunflower against the brick wall done with various softly applied shades of ink which complements it perfectly, and the grounding with the added flowers looks great too. x
