More fairies

A really quick share with you all this morning before I charge off for a rather special session with Elizabeth Allan from Penny Black who is spending a day at Sir Stampalot and for a few very lucky ladies who get in there quickly, doing a class as well.

My card is another of those I have created using some of the the new Lavinia products (link to their store on my sidebar). I created the background with Tim Holts distress ink marigold and tea dye, then spritzed with Glimmer Mist gold to blend the inks and give some sheen. The honeycomb effect is created with a piece of mesh and brilliance ink and the images all inked with versafine black and embossed with detail clear.

    I absolutely love what you do with the gorgeous Lavinia fairy stamp range and it was seeing them on your blog that prompted me to buy some. I got them out last night after seeing your previous post and now you've given me some more lovely ideas.

    This card is just magical Brenda!
