Lavinia Stamps "Art is a story waiting to be told" forest scene card



Well two cards in one day isn't bad going.  This evening,  I have played with my Lavinia Stamps, which I've not used for a couple of weeks, to create this card.

I've used tones of blue for this card, using Distress Oxide inks for the background scene and stamping using Versfine Clair "Medieval Blue" ink to stamp the "Tree Group", "Story Sentiment and "Small Red Pine".  I've used the Lavinia Stamps "Feather Leaf Stencil" with "Tumbled Glass" Distress Oxide Inks to create the patterned sky area.

Stampin' Up "All for the baby bundle" Baby Card



Our neighbours have recently had their third boy, so I made this new baby card for them. 

For the background star wreath, I used the Funky Fossil Designs "Starry Circle Stencil" with "Tumbled Glass" Distress Oxide Ink.



For the hangers and onsies, I used the Stampin' Up "All for baby bundle" of stamp and dies, with the onsies coloured in "Peacock Feathers" and "Tumbled Glass" Distress Oxide Inks.

I die cut the three letters to spell out "boy" and then stamped the sentiment using "Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink.

The sentiment is stamped in Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" green ink and is part of the new "Enchanted Christmas" stamp set.

The sentiment is stamped in Memento "Rhubarb Stalk" ink and die cut.
