Lavinia Stamps Challenge 1. March 'Anything Goes'.



Hi again Crafty Blogging friends,
as you have probably heard there is a fantastic Challenge starting today,
 Friday 1st March 2013,
with a wonderful prize of a £40 voucher, to spend on their website.

The theme for the first Challenge is 'Anything Goes', and you can link to the Challenge blog


Challenge 1. March 'Anything goes', 1st DT card 



I started off with a piece of smooth white card 5"x 5", I used a punched circle as a Moon mask, and coloured the with Distress inks, in Salty Ocean, Worn Lipstick, Squeezed Lemonade and Forest Moss. I removed the moon mask, and stamped the images using Memento Tuxedo Black, I then used Bazill card stock, in Pink and Blue, and attached it all to a blank 6"x 6" white card.

The Lavinia stamps I used were,

GAGGLE OF GEESE
BIRDS
SILVER BIRCH
and the blossom stamp from SPRING TREES

These can be veiwed and purchased at the link HERE


Challenge 1. March 'Anything goes' 2nd DT card




This project, is a 'Twinchie', a 2"x 2" little piece of decorated card.

I wanted the moon to stand out, so used a Spellbinders circle die on some Centura pearl card, then coloured it with Worn Lipstick Distress ink. I coloured the 2" piece of card with Distress inks in Salty Ocean, Worn Lipstick, Dusty Concord and Forest Moss, then glued the moon into position.
The image was stamped onto a separate piece of card using Memento Tuxedo Black, and the wings and stones were coloured with Promarkers. This image was cut out and layered with glue gel to give dimention, the wings were then glittered (although my photography does not show the sparkle, 
sorry !!) I added some tiny hand drawn birds in the corner.

The Lavinia Stamp I used....

SMALL STAR GAZING

this can be viewed and purchased at the link HERE


I hope you've enjoyed looking at my creations using the beautiful Lavinia Stamps,
please have a go at the Lavinia Stamps Challenge, it will be fun, and you might win a £40 voucher to spend on new stamps.


Thank you for taking the time to pop by,
see you soon,
Hugs,
Pauline
