Lavinia Stamps "Ashryn" the bear in snow.

 

Today, I received my order from Lavinia Stamps with their new "Meadowbrook Tales" stamp collection.  After adding the stamps to a spreadsheet and storing them in plastic wallets, they were ready to use.

For the background, I used one of the Lavinia scenescape cards.  Stamping the new bear "Ashryn" on to the card using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink.  I then stamped it again on white card, coloured the bear with Derwent Inktense pencils, applied with a brush, then fussy cut the shape and glued into postion.  I added extra detail using a brown fine liner pen.

Down the right hand side of the card, I stamped the Lavinia "Snowfalls" verse using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink.  Then using Versafine Clair "Pinecone" brown ink, I stamped the Lavinia "Everlight 2" stamp.

I coloured the globe using a Posca Pen and a silver glitter gel pen.  Then added snow to some of the branches by using a white gel pen.

I grounded the bear usiing Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink and the torn edge of a piece of copy paper.  Then edged the card using Versafine Clair "Monarch" purple ink.  finally adding some more white orbs to the sky using a white Posca pen and smudging with my finger tip.

Lavinia Stamps "Goddess Luna" on Scene Scapes

While tidying my patterned papers, I came across a Lavinia Stamps "Scenescape" paper, which I think is called "Live the dream". So made this the base for my next project.  I used Versafine Clair "Twilight" dark blue ink to stamp the Lavinia "Wild Life Corner" stamp four times.

I then stamped "Goddess Luna" in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink.  I needed to extend the tree branch she sat on as it was a little too short. I then added a couple of extra branches and the dangling foliage, both are part of the Lavinia "Foliage" stamp set..  

I used Derwent Inktense pencils to add more depth of colour to the landscape.  I used a gold gel pen and a lilac Posca Pen for extra detail on the corners and a white gel pen for hightlights, finally adding some shimmer to the wings of Luna by adding "A wink of stella".

Lavinia Stamps "Starr" & "Wild Pine" card

While tidying my card and papers, I came across a Lavinia Stamps "Live the dream" Scenescapes paper.  As it was starting to look a bit tatty - it's been hanging around a while, I decided to put it to use.

I started by stamping the Lavinia Stamps "Small Pine Trees" using Versafine Clair "Warm Breeze" ink.

I then stamped the Lavinia "Wild Pine" tree in Versafine Clair "Medieval Blue" ink

Next I stamped the Lavinia "Starr" fairy using Versafine Clair "Twilight" dark blue ink.

I used one of the Lavinia "Hill Masks" to create more landscapes using Versafine Clair "Monarch" purple Ink, "Warm Breeze" turquoise ink and inking the edges of the card using "Monarch" purple ink and Chianti" dark red ink.

I then started filling in areas with colour.  I used a selection of gel pens and Posca Pens until I was happy with the finished scene.
