The 100 Day Project 2026 - Day 78

Today, is Day 78 of the 100 Day Project 2026.  This is a challenge where you spend a short time each day creating, using the mediums of your choice.  Mine is 4x4" card, using collage, stamps and stencils.

For my Day 78, I cut a dark blue coloured card three and a half inch square and glued on to a white background.  I then used two shades of green (for the landscape) and a white (for the moon) Pan Pastel.

I used Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink to stamp the Lavinia Stamps "Forrest Scene" trees, using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink to stamp the "Small Pixie Houses".

I added a Dina Wakley collage paper swallow and a Lavinia Stamps word sticker from their "Sentiment Stickers 6" set.  Adding some touches of gold shimmer pen to the threes and landscape.

Lavinia Stamps Purple "Penelope"

On a plain white card, I used "Sky Blue" Ranger Archival Ink throught the Lavinia Stamps "Ornate" stencil.  I then used Versafine Clair "Very Peri" Lilac coloured ink to stamp the "Forest Scene" trees.

I used Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink to ground the trees and also to create the moon using the Lavinia "Moon Mask".

I then stamped "Penelope" and the "Ravens" using Versafine Clair "Fantasia".  I returned to"Vere Peri" ink and multi stamped the "Witching Hour" verse.

Finally, I inked the edges of the card bringing the colour in and over the stamping to give a lilac hue.  Adding touches of white gel pen, 2B pencil and Posca Pen too.

24 Days of Tags with Karen Telfer 2022 - Day one

For the past two years I have taken part in Karen Telfer's "24 Days of Tags challenge".  Today is the first day of the 2022 challenge.  Here is the link to the Day 1 tag.

I've used Tumbled Glass and Blueprint Sketch Distress Oxide ink for the background colour.

I've used both "Twilight" and "Morning Mist" Versafine Clair ink to stamp the following Lavinia Stamps:  Red Pines, Forest Scenes, Winter Magic and Snowflakes.  I've used touches of Silver Glitter Signo pen on the snowflakes.

Lavinia Stamps Pan Pastel Forest Scene with Pheasant

Earlier today, I saw an on-line video tutorial by Tracey Dutton of Lavinia Stamps, using Pan Pastels.  It reminded me that I already have quite a collection of them, that have not seen the light of day for some months. 

I didn't have the same colours that Tracey used, so I have opted for a sunset sky instead, by blending various shades of Pan Pastels.

I stamped the trees, pheasant and birds in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink.
