Rock Star


Morning all, it's rather sobering that it's the last challenges of the year at We Love Stamping and Stamping Sensations, this year seems to have flown by. At WLS Anesha has chosen our theme of Red and Green and at SS Chris's chosen theme is Fantasy and we have prizes from Visible Image and Lavinia Stamps.

I veered away from the obvious seasonal choice and went with something totally different using new to me VI stamps. I love the splatter background stamp called Fluid which I inked with red and green Versafine Clair, stamped Rock Star, coloured and cut out and placed over the Melody die. 

The theme at Simply Clean and Simple is Reds and Greens so hope this might be sufficiently CAS and the same colour palette at Colour my Heart and at Crafty Chicks the theme is Birthday.


An arch shapes base card to reflect Lavinia Arch of Angels shape, added Fairy Path leading up to it, various leaves and flowers and in the arch Nia with Luka watching on. I'm popping to Ellies Garden Party with this one.


Seems I missed this one using Visible Image Precious Life stamp for WLS from my initial post. The vase is Lavinia as are the grasses and ferns added around the focal flowers. It looks rather pink as opposed red in the photo, but irl is red. I'm popping to Beautiful Blossoms with this one.

Lynne said...

That splatter background looks perfect for your rock star Brenda and the arched card is beautiful.

Chris said...

Both fabulous cards Brenda- of course I love your pretty arched Lavinia scene, beautiful as always, but can't take my eyes off that amazing rockstar card, the colourful splatter stamp looks fantastic- thought the colours were just splashed on -using the lighter shades on the musician's shirt and guitar and perfect placement of the die make this a very 'electric' design. xx

Two great cards, Brenda. Your first one is so striking and vibrant and I love the magical scene on your second card.

Two very different but equally gorgeous creations. The first would be so perfect for any music lover and what a beautiful scene on the second. The arch has been on my wishlist, sold out from my favorite US stockist but will get it eventually.
So nice to see this gorgeous creation linked up at my Garden Party!

A wonderful rock card, reminds a little of Freddie. The shape of your second card beautifully echoes the stamped arch and lovely floral additions. Your last card is so dainty.
