As we head towards Florence another fairy card using my new Lavinia stamps - link in my last post. It's years since we went to Florence so really looking forward to it and soaking up the history and atmosphere that drew so many artists over the years and a trip of course to the Piazza della Signoria with its copy of Michelangelo's David.The background for this card is one my my nice messy techniques using Tim Holts inks onto a glossy cardstock, adding some Krylon gold. The image is stamped with versafine black and embossed with detail clear. The card itself has been stamped with the tiny toadstools and a small fairy stamp embossed with detail gold. The embelli in the corner some gold swirls and three leaves stamped onto shrink plastic which I coloured before cutting out and shrinking.

Oh Brenda you lucky thing but I do hope you are not over tiring yourself. I absolutely love your card, those stamped images do look so dreamy and I really do believe in fairies at the bottom of my garden. Enjoy yourself, with love and hugs Shirleyxxxxxxxx

This is gorgeous Brenda, the image is beautiful, as is the background card you've made. There are not many places I would like to visit (I like being at home) but Florence is one of the places on my list. I hope you enjoy it.
