Lavinia Stamps "Maple Leaf" Card

Taking inspirations from super talented Eileen Godwin, I made this card. 

I masked off an area at the base of the card and used two shades of Distress Oxide Inks (Twisted Citron and Iced Spruce), then removed the masking tape to reveal a band of colour.

I used the Lavinia Stamps "Maple Leaf stamp", stamped in Versafine Clair 'Nocturne" black ink and "Cornflower Blue" Archival Ink, stamped in both first and second generation stamping.

I used the "Heartfelt Verse" sentiment stamp set, stamped in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" ink.  Finally, I added some splatters of white paint using a Posca Pen.

Day 16 of the "24 Days of Tags Challenge 2021" with Karen Telfer

I'm playing catch up with my tags, as I've been away in the caravan this weekend, so this is the first of three that I need to make to be back on track. 

I've used four shades of Distress Oxide Inks for the background:  Squeezed Lemonade, Dried Marigold, Abandoned Coral and Festive Berries.

I spritzed the surface of a Lavinia Stamps stencil called "Foliage" with water, then lay it wet side down, over the tag.  I used a kitchen towel to absorb any surplus water then lifted the stencil, which reveals a bleached look image of the stencil. I then used a heat gun to dry the surface.

Once dry, I stamped the sentiment, by Lavinia Stamps, called "Heartfelt Verse" in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink.  I used the same ink to stamp the Lavinia Stamps "Wild Vines" too.

Next, I stamped the hanging hearts, which are part of the Lavinia Stamps "Fairy Charms" stamp set, using Versafine Clair "Glamorous" pink ink.  I then added small white dots on the surface of the background and highlighting areas on the hanging hearts.

Lavinia Stamps "Pan" Card

I made a quick card this evening using the new Ranger/Tim Holtz Distress Oxide Ink called "Villainous Violet" through the Lavinia Stamps "Splendour" stencil.

I used Lavinia Stamps  (Silhouette Grass, Pan, Silhouette Foliage Set, Heartfelt Verse and Twisted Vine Set) throughout this card, all stamped in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" ink. I also used a white and a silver gelly roll pen.

Lavinia Stamps "Leaf Mask" Card

Lavinia Stamps have recently released some new products, which I had to have a play with to create this card, which I think has a feeling of Klimt, due to the colouring and touches of gold.  Unfortunately, it doesn't show up too well in the photo, so I've taken a little video clip to show the gold areas.

I've used the new Lavinia "Leaf Mask" for the central image and their "Flurry Stencil" for the background.  The sentiment is part of the Lavinia "Heartfelt Verse" stamp set, stamped in Versafine Clair "acorn" brown ink.
