Lavinia Stamps "Marcie the witch" and the full moon card

I've had a play with some of my Lavinia Stamps halloween stamps to create this scene.  Masking off an area for the moon, I spritzed the surface of the card and applied two shades of Brusho Paint granules.  The colours I used are:  Grey and Ost. Blue.  Once dry, I iused "Weathered Wood" Distress Oxide Ink to give the moon a more mottled look to it, edging the moon in "Wilted Violet" and "Blue Print Sketch" Distress Oxide Inks.  I then went round the edge of the card with the "Wilted Violet" blending brush to give it a more uniform appearance.

I then used "Black Soot" Distress Oxide Ink through areas of the Lavinia Stamps "Charming" stencil.  Next, I stamped the Lavinia "Marcie the witch" using Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink.  I used the same ink to stamp the Lavinia "Tree Of Courage" on the left hand side of the page.

I used the Lavinia Stamps "Hill Mask" to create the landscape with Versafine Clair "Medieval Blue" ink. then added colour to the landscape and to the stencilled areas using Van Goch Pastel Pencils.

I added highlights using a white gel pen and shadows using a black fine liner pen.  I added the look of flowers using a pale pink Posca Pen.  Finally, stamping the "Full Moon" sentiment, which is part of the Lavinia Stamps "Nightfall" stamp set, using Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink.

Lavinia Stamps "Mooch" Card

Here's another card ticked off my February birthday card list.  I am finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.

For this card, I've used Lavinia Stamps stamps and stencil, being inspired by the super talented Eileen Godwin.

I've used the Lavinia "Mooch" cat stamp, stamped in three shades of Versafine Clair Ink (Acorn, Tulip Red and Summertime), then added extra depth of colour using Derwent Inktense water colour pencils.

In the background, I have used the Lavinia Stamps "Charming stencil" with three shades of Distress Oxide Inks (Tea Dye, Wild Honey and Festive Berries) applied with a blending brush.

I used the Lavinia "Fairy Bugs" stamp set for the insect and the "Heartfelt Verse" for the sentiment.

Finally, I added splatters of three shades of Posca Pens (Brown, Black and White)

Lavinia Stamps Leaf Mask with Garden Poppy

Here's the card I've made this evening, again using Lavinia Stamps. 

I've used the Lavinia "Leaf Mask" for the background with the Lavinia "Charming Stencil" with several shades of Distress Oxide Inks (Antique Linen, Tea Dye, Wild Honey, Bundled Sage, Rusty Hinge and Vintage Photo).

I've stamped the "Woodland Hares", "Garden Poppy" and "Heartfelt Verse" in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink.

I've used some colouring pencils to add extra depth to areas of the leaf.  I've also used a selection of metallic pens in gold and bronze to add highlight areas.
