Lavinia Stamps Botanical Blossom and Moss Flowers "Happiness" Card

 

I had an urge to play with my Lavinia Stamps, which resulted in this card.  I used 49andMarket "Green Jean" ink through the Lavinia Stamps "Elegance" stencil, with stronger colour on the right hand side, fading out towards the left side.

Next, I used Versafine Clair "Warm Breeze: ink to stamp the Lavinia "Botanical Blossom" stamp. On plain white card, I stamped the Laviia "Moss Flowers" in two shades of orange ink, using Versafine Clair "Summertime" and "Carrot Orange",  I fussy cut the flower heads and glued into position.  I then painted the inner area of each flower using "Squeezed Lemonade" Distress Oxide Ink.

I returned to the Versafine Clair "Warm Breeze" ink to stamp then "Happiness" sentiment, which is part of the Lavinia Stamps "Blessings" stamp set.  Finally adding some dots of white Ranger Enamel Accents.

Sweet Poppy Stencil Butterfly Card

 

I've been in the craft room this morning making this card using some new inks.  The Ranger "49 and Market" collection.  They are the most beautiful colours!

I used a piece of 300gsm white card for the base. I lay the Sweet Poppy Stencils "Harmony Backplate Stencil" over the card and applied "Pink Sands" 49 and Market ink throught part of the stencil.

Next, I used a Sweet Poppy Butterfly stencil, designed by Tracey Dutton of Lavinia Stamps, off the page with Versafine Clair "Twilight" dark blue ink.  I used the same ink to stamp the "Happy Birthday" sentiment which is part of the Sweet Poppy Stencils "Hugs and Kisses" stamp set.

Next, I used the Sweet Poppy "Dots Backplate Stencil" with 49 and Market "Fossil" ink.  I edged  the card with "Mint Chill" 49 and Market green ink. 

Finally, I added some white dots of Ranger "Enamel Accents".
