Lavinia Stamps "Everlee on the swing bed" tag

 

More early morning play, this time a tag using Lavinia Stamps.

I used a manila coloured tag for the base, adding "Saltwater Taffy" and "Weathered Wood" Distress Oxide Inks, layering the colours, then drying then laying more colour on top, to get some depth.

Once dry, I used Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" green ink to stamp the Lavinia Stamps "Medium Swing Bed".  I used the same ink to stamp the "Mystic Swirls" and also to ink the edges of the tag.

Next, I used Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink to stamp the Lavinia "Star Cluster" around the swing bed.  I was then able to stamp the fairy "Everlee" using Versafine Clair "Twilight" dark blue ink.

I added touches of silver glitter pen, gold shimmer pen and finally dots of "White Opal" Ranger Liquid Pearls to areas of the swirls.

Lavinia Stamps "Everlee on a shelf" card

Many of my recent cards have had quite busy designs.  I decided I wanted something a little quieter.  This card would be almost a whisper if it ended up how I had it in my head. However, my heavy handedness when adding colour through the stencil changed it some what!

I used a stencil I had in my stash with Versafine Clair "Purple Delight" to create the two lines for the shelves.

I positioned the new Lavinia Stamps fairy called "Everlee" sitting on the end of the shelf and stamped her in Versafine Clair "Monarch" purple ink.  I used the same ink to stamp the bottles on the higher shelf.  These stamps are part of a new set called "Potions".

I used two shades of Archival Inks:  Shadow Grey and Pink Peony through the Lavinia Stamps "Dynamic" stencil.  This is where I became over zealous and it ended up a lot darker than I had imagined it would be!

Finally, I stamped the "Don't forget to fly...!" sentiment in Versafine Clair "Purple Delight "ink.  

Lavinia Stamps "Everlee" Card

 

Here's another card I have made using some of the new stamps released this week by Lavinia Stamps.

I've used ta gel plate and Element ink background, stamping he new "Everlee" figure, sat on the "Small Swing Bed", looking up on the new "Hanging Pods". In the bottom right hand corner, I have used the new "Cedar" stamp.  Around the swing bed and fairy, I have stamped the "Star Cluster".

All stamping is in various shades of Versafine Clair Inks.  I've used Posca Pens, glitter pens, gel pens and stickles, edging the card with Distress Oxide "Wild Violet" ink.
