For this card, I used three shades of Elements Inks on a piece of white card for the background colour, using Sundance, Russet Orange and Paprika shades of ink.
I then used the "Russet Orange" again through the Lavinia "Floral Stencil" giving a very subtle pattern in the background.
Next, using Versafine Clair "Pinecone" dark brown ink, I stamped the Lavinia Stamps "Forest Leaf" stamp. Around the edge of the stamped image, I used Versafine Clair "Portobello" a mid brown coloured ink to stamp the Lavinia "Mystic Swirl. I then used Versafine Clair "Strawberry" red ink to multi stamp the Lavinia "Winter Spice" verse.
I inked the edges of the card using Versafine Clair "Acorn" and "Pinecone". Using the "Pinecone" ink again to stamp the Lavinia sentiment, which is part of the "Words from the heart" stamp set.
I added some white paint splatters to the surface and then added extra colour to the leaves of the "Floral Leaf" stamped image using Derwent Inktense pencils. Finally, I used a 2B pencil to add some depth to the underside of the leaves and added some touches of gold gel pen to the background and the leaves.
Love the amazing inks you used and the stunning outcome.. think you meant to write lavinia stencil here .... xx

DeleteThe wonderful bright orange tones with the brown make a very dramatic look and love the pretty leaves and swirl and script stamping, and the soft stencilling in the background finishes it beautifully..a gorgeous card Sam. x
