Lavinia Stamps "Coven of Curiosities - Make 11 - Tag Tuesday

I've been up stupidly early, 1:30am to be exact as I couldn't sleep.  Too much "stuff" whirling round my head.  So I decided to get up and potter in the craft room, eventually making a tag.

I used the Lavinia Stamps "Waffle Stencil" for the background, with grey and blue ink that was on my blending brush from a previous project. I used Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink to stamp "Penelope", "Specter the raven" and the "Hallowmere" sign post,

I used a moon mask and Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink for the spotlight/moon, filling the area with a subtle glitter from using a "Wink of Steller".  I then used the same ink with the torn edge of a piece of copy paper to create the landscape.  Using a 2B pencil and black fine liner for shadows and grass, adding a touch of colour with Posca Pens for the flowers and a white gel pen on "Penelope" the witch.

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.
