Fairies in the garden of delights


Morning to you all, another just because post with a couple of shares. Not a lot of mojo going on this week, my diabetic meds have changed and sugars a bit all over, but managed these two. But do need to get more productive as a delivery of new Lavinia goodies arrived, rather quirky, fun and different, check them out here, you just might be tempted.

Above for the current Snippets Playground using various AALL and Create stamps and snippets, along with a few TRR springs of foliage onto a background stencilled with crackle texture paste. I even remembered a photo of my snippets. It was a tad cold in the treehouse this week so I've hidden a bottle of something 'spirited' in my bag for those who are up for it.


The one below is for the new Path of Positivity challenge, the focus this year is the Unexpected, this month it's send a Valentines to someone not expecting it. I usually only make them for DT work so I decided to make for GGrandaugter Margo, three and a half. She was fascinated watching me make Fairy cards recently, she doesn't quite understand the Fairy concept yet so this one might help guide her towards my world of fantasy.


I used Lavinia stamps Fairy Chain (part of), Leaf Creeper, Fairy Bugs, mini stamps Leaf, Single Heart and Group Hearts. I lightly inked a heart shape stencil, stamped around it and then three of the Fairies using a mixture of Versafine Clair inks and a little sentiment, wood mounted and years old, I think Art Impressions.

Have a good weekend.

Two gorgeous cards, each very different from the other.

Loving the snippets card in blue and yellow.
Pretty fairy heart card for Margo too.

Hope the new meds help and you feel better soon.
