Beautiful Lavinia's Stamps

I've been admiring the beautiful stamps from Lavinia's Stamps for a few years now, and finally gave in and bought some at the Big Stamp and Scrapbook Show.  I've started to do more stamping and make more cards, so now was the time to buy them!  I spent a small fortune, but they were worth it!


I love all the delicate fairies and greenery, and was amazed at the scene's you could do with these.  It's not shown, but I also bought a brayer to try!


I had to buy the beautiful fairy washing line.... well fairies have washing too you know!



In fact, I found it hard to resist buying all of the stamps, as I wanted them all now!


This is my first attempt at using my fairy stamps from Lavinia!  They stamp beautifully with minimum pressure on the stamp.  I used Dusty Concord Distress ink in the middle, peeled paint around the rest of the card and made a border using brushed Corduroy.  I also bought a pot of glitter from Lavinia stamps that is fantastically holographic, and works really well with the fairy designs.  I used peeled paint and pine needles distress inks to stamp the foliage at the bottom of the card. 

The stamps are really worth investing in, but don't take my word for it, visit Lavinia Stamps at www.laviniastamps.com!  Happy stamping!
