Hello My Dear Stamper Friends:

For my "DT" post today at Loast Coast Designs, I made this Asian card...using perfect pearls!

The whole set is a single sheet of rubber with 4 wonderful Asian images...
(a Buddha, a geisha, bamboo shoots and Asian writing)
I used 2 of them in this card...

step by step...
1- ink the stamps with "versamark" ink, stamp on dark paper (black)
2- add the perfect pearls with a dry brush (grab with brush a small amount of powder)
3- rub in circular motions on the area that you want that color.
4- starting by the face with the white powder color
5- tap excess powder on paper towel...use same brush
6- grab second color - take blue and rub on the front of the kimono
7- clean brush by tapping excess powders on paper towel
8- grad other colors ( green/back kimono, copper/hair, gold/bamboo) and continue same process until all the stamped images have color. shake excess powders. rub with paper towel softly the whole card
9- add outer lines with gold leaf pen
10- spray (outside or in a ventilated area) to set the pigment colors
11 - add gold string in an offset way and rhinestones

A last view...

Lavinia Challenge Blog # 10 - Anything Goes!

Hello Dear Stamper Friends:
Every first of the month, Lavinia's Stamps hosts a Challenge at their blog...

For this month of December, the theme for the challenge # 10  is "Anything Goes", and here are my contributions as a DTM for your inspiration...
a little bit of everything... a new year's card, a birthday one and a Christmas tag..featuring the alluring Lavinia Stamps


This Christmas tag illustrates the Emboss resist technique  and uses the beautiful "Fuchia" flower and the magical "Unicorn 2" stamps paired with some Memory Box dies!



I used again The "Fushia" stamp in this birthday card and it looks so different than the one in the Christmas tag. I used it as a background and as a main focal point of the card using the "Direct stamp coloring with markers" technique on glossy paper



And lastly, I made a New Year's card featuring the lovely fairy "Nissa", accompanied by some cute mushrooms and tiny bright stars ...
I used  "Perfect Pearls" on black cardstock and stamped the sentiment on  acetate..



So... I hope I inspired you to play along with us and post a card using at least one Lavinia stamp for the chance to win a £40 voucher to spend at the  Lavinia's web shop...you will have until the end of the month to submit your card...

Remember to visit the Lavinia's Challenge blog to see ALL the samples posted by the entire DT ...and post yours! 

In case you are new to this company, I recommend you to visit the site and check out the Videos; they are wonderful, full of nice techniques on how to create stamped scenes...using the magical stamps that Lavinia offers and understand why this company captivated my imagination! which I am so proud to be part of now...

 GOOD LUCK!
