Lavinia Stamps "Fip" and the raven

I've used the leaf from the Lavinia Stamps "Nature & Nurture" sticker stencil for the background of this card with assorted colours of Ranger Archival Inks.

I used Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink to stamp the Lavinia  "Fip" figure, the "Raven" and the "Paint Splatters".

I used a gold gel pen to outline some of the dots on the Lavinia Stamps "White Orbs" stencil, colouring some in gold and some in a rusty glittery orange colour.  I used a "Wink of Stella" on the wings of "Fip" and touches of white gel pen too.

Lavinia Stamps "Coven of Curiosities" New Release - Prue on a starry background

I'm still feeling poorly and couldn't get back to sleep, so decided to get up and craft, making this card in the style of card my good friend Eileen Godwin creates. 

I started with the stars from the Lavinia Stamps "Words 2" stencil, using four shades of Ranger Archival inks:  Sky Blue, Chrome Yellow, Tea Rose and Vivid Chartreuse through the stencil.

Then, I used Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink to stamp "Prue" the witch.  I grounded her using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" and a hill mask.

Next, I stamped the "Magic Dwells" verse stamp in Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink.  I used the same ink to edge a moon mask round the top half of the witch.

I returned to Versafine clair "Nocturne" black ink to stamp the birds, which are both part of the new "Ravens" stamp set.  I also stamped the paint splatters behind/under the birds using the same ink.

Finally, I added touches of white gel pen to the witch and birds and some coloured dots of Posca Pen to replicate flowers.

Lavinia Stamps "Coven of Curiosities" New Release - Make 8

Yet another make, using one of the new "Coven of Curiosities" release by Lavinia Stamps.

I rummaged through my folder of prepared backgrounds and came across an orange. red and blue Brusho piece that I thought would lend itself to what I had in mind.

Using Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink, I stamped the Lavinia Stamps "Book of Spells" and the sentiment that came with the book stamp.  I then used the Lavinia Stamps "Paint Splatters" stamp with Versafine Clair "Arctic" blue ink to uniform the blue Brusho area and to provide a more textured area.

Next, over the yelloe/red Brusho area, I used Versafine Clair "Summertime", orange ink to stamp the Lavinia "Magic Dwells" verse stamp.

Returning to Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink, I stamped the birds, which are part of the new Lavinia stamp set called "Ravens".  I also used a mini star stamp to add more stars around the ravens.

I edged the card with Versafine Clair "Medieval Blue" ink.  I used a gold coloured gel pen in the middle of the stars and on the book pages. I then used a white gel pen to add more detail to the birds.

Lavinia Stamps "Coven of Curiosities" New Release - Make 4

My fourth make with the new release goodies from Lavinia Stamps is a mix of older and new products.

I used a piece of patterned paper for the base of this card, using one of the new "Autumn Mist" stencils and the new "Paint Splatter" stamp with Versaine Clair Inks.

I used Versafine Clair 'Nocturne" black ink to stamp "Mini Pipin", the flowers from the "Foliage Set" and one of the birds from the new "Ravens" stamp set.

I used pastel pencils to accentuate some of the colours and white Pan Pastel through the Lavinia "White Orbs" stencil.  Finally adding touches of white gel pen, black fine liner and black Posca Pen.

Lavinia Stamps "Coven of Curiosities" new release stamps

I was very fortunate to receive my set of the brand new Lavinia release called "Coven of Curiosities" stamps and stencil set, so couldn't wait to get playing with them making this card.

I have used one of the new Lavinia "Autumn Mist" collection stencils with two shades of Versafine Clair (Arctic and Warm Breeze) inks.  Adding extra depth using "Verdant" green ink. I used Versafine Clair ""Avocado" through the Lavinia "Flurry" stencil. fading out towards the edge.

Using Versafine Clair "Twilight" dark blue ink, I stamped the new Lavinia stamp called "Witch Hazel".

I then used Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink to stamp "Specter" the raven and two of the ravens from the "ravens" stamp set.

I used the new "Paint Splatter stamp" with Versafine Clair "Warm Breeze" ink, stamped in first and second generation stamping. Using Versafine Clair "Arctic" light blue ink, I multi stamped the verse around the edge of the card.

I then stamped the sentiment, which is part of an old Lavinia stamp set called "Let your spirit take flight" samped in Versafine Clair  'Nocturne" black ink.

I inked the edges of the card, first with Versafine Clair "Warm Breeze" and then the very outer edge with Versafine Clair "Twilight" dark blue ink

I added extra depth of colour to areas using Van Goch pastel pencils.  I added blue dots of Posca Pen to the branches and white gel pen to the birds and the paint drips.  Finally adding some black dots of Posca pen then added dots of "Prickly Pear" Liquid Pearls.
