Lavinia Stamps "Heart Sticker Stencil" play

I've had a few days off using Lavinia products, but this morning I decided to play with the new "Heart Sticker Stencil" which is part of a set of four you can purchase from Lavinia Stamps.

I positioned the aperture/heart outline onto my card base and then started filling in the heart detail.  Starting with the background shades, using five shades of Distress Oxide Inks applied with a blending brush (Speckled Egg, Tumbled Glass, Victorian Velvet, Chipped Sapphire and Tea Dye).

Using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink, I stamped the Lavinia "Stargazing" couple.  Using the removing the sticker stencil and placing the mask over the heart, I then stamped the tex, in second generation stamping, using the same ink with the Lavinia"Background Script" stamp.  Once dry, I coloured the area from the edge to the heart using two shades of Distress Oxide Inks:  Speckled Egg and Victorian Velvet.

Again using "Morning Mist" grey ink, I stamped the word "Love" which is from a Lavinia stamp set called "Live the life"  which is a five word sentiment set. I edged the card in the same ink.

I added a little detail to the sky and the fairy wings using Derwent Inktense water colour pens.  I added touches of gold shimmer to the image using the "Clear Star" Gelly Roll pen.

Lavinia Stamps "Midnight Meandering" Anniversary Card

Yet another quick anniversary card.  This time I have used three Lavinia Stamps   (Midnight Meandering, Fairy Charms abd Live The Life sentiment), all stamped in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink.

In the background, I have used the "Spun Sugar" Distress Oxide Ink through the Lavinia Stamps "Splendour" stencil.

Lavinia Stamps New Stamp Release Preview (January 2020) Aria, Luna Lights and Pink Orbs

Time to showcase another sample I have created using some of the new January 2020 stamp releases from Lavinia Stamps. 

I used a background created by using three shades of Dylusions Ink Sprays, which create lovely vibrant colours.

Once dry I started to stamp the images, first one was the "Pink Orbs" that the fairy sits on, which I stamped in Versafine Clair "Glamorous" pink ink.

I then stamped "Aria" in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink.  I also stamped the word "Love" which is part of the "Live The Life" stamp set already in the Lavinia collection.

I returned to the Versafine Clair "Glamorous" pink ink stamping the "Luna Lights" suspended from the top left of the card.  While the ink was out, I also stamped a little heart, which is in the existing Lavinia collection and is called "Single Heart Mini".  I cut the heart out and adhered it into position in the hands of the fairy.

I used a selection of red, gold and black pens to colour in the "orbs".  I also used a Sakura Gelly Roll pen to add some subtle gold shimmer to areas of the card.
