Morning Peeps, it's Saturday and time for a new challenge at Allsorts and this week I am your host and my theme is 'Anything with Wings'. I'm giving away a lovely Lavinia Fairy stamp to this weeks lucky winner, in fact one just like this called Faith.........there is a secret behind this, I placed a couple of orders with Lavinia recently only to find three of the stamps were ones I already owned. Hubby's comment went along the lines of too much craft stash and I have no idea what I actually have, fair comment although I'm not admitting that to him!
So, all stamps are Lavinia, Pan Pastels for the background, the moon stamped with Distress Ink and everything else stamped with Versafine Clair.
And one more Lavinia share, it does look rather garish, my new computer which is an iMac has a good editing system and I think I got a bit carried away playing with the colour on this one. The background is Oxides, all stamps Lavinia and some glitter to highlight the moon and Fairy wings.
Happy weekend all and I hop hope you will come and join us this week.

Just pop here... Un salto veloce qui per ammirare le tue stupende creazioni, cara Brenda!! Amo sempre le tue scene così magiche con le fate e la natura!! E i timbri Lavinia sono speciali, tanto che li desideriamo sempre :D Così hai desiderato quei timbri che già avevi senza ricordarlo. :D A me è successo qualche volta con le fustelle.
ReplyDeleteHai usato colori splendidi, viola e turchese sono i miei preferiti, insieme al verde. Adoro la delicatezza della prima card, la forma di arco mascherata, la luna e i due dragon pods (non so il loro nome in italiano) :D che richiamano le ali della fata! E la seconda card è un'esplosione di vita, con i colori così vibranti e tutte le piante!! Hai scelto la fata perfetta per questi tempi, Faith è quello di cui tutti abbiamo bisogno ora ;)
Un abbraccio, buona Domenica!
