Lavinia Stamp and Stencil

Hi Crafting Friends,

Some time ago I saw the team from Lavinia Stamps making cards using two stencils and distress inks to create a background.

 I started with the Lavinia fairy stamp and white heat embossed it. I then created the background by blending distress oxide inks. Over that I used a cloud stencil and black ink blending the ink to create shadows, a bit like the northern lights technique. I then placed a die cut acetate circle over the fairy, I then used the Lavinia stencil flourish and blended the edges. I polished the card to pop out the white embossing and I then added some liquid glitter for highlights.

Thanks for looking.........
