I've made a quick anniversary card this morning using the Funky Fossil "Indian Mandala Stencil" with three shades of Distress Oxide Inks (Salvaged Patina, Peacock Feathers and Mermaid Lagoon).
I've used a sentiment from the "Essential Sentiments" by "My Favourite Things", stamped in "Warm Breeze" Distress Oxide Ink and then die cut into a banner. Finally, I added some touches of gold to areas of the card using a metallic gold pen.
I played with another new Lavinia Stamp this evening, this time I clear heat embossed the "Bramble" stamp with Wow! Embossing Ink with Clear Embossing Powder which I heat set.
I used a "My Favourite Thing" stamp from their "Essential Sentiments" set, stamped in Wow! Clear embossing ink and then covered in Metallic silver Super Smooth embossing powder and heat set.
Karen Telfer produced a fabulous demonstration on how to make a Valentine's card at the weekend on her Facebook page. This is my take on that demonstration.
For this card, I have used the Lavinia Stamps "Feather Leaf" stencil with "Weathered Wood" Distress Oxide ink on the surrounding area of the heart. The area within the heart, I have used "Festive Berries" Distress Oxide Ink.
I have stamped Lavinia "Rory" and "Darcy" in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" ink. I have used the same ink to stamp the "Love You More" sentiment, which is part of a "My Favourite Things" stamp set called "Essential Elements CS-137"
