Does it fit? said the Prince

                                                                               Hi all

I found myself buying the latest collection released by Lavinia on the 26th January (plus alot more since, I need my hands bound and blind folded - is there and Lavinia addicts anonymous group!!!!.  Today I decided to make a card using the small Pixie boot for the first time mixed with older stamps.  Fabulous all the stamps can be mixed up so many beautiful stamps and can't stop buying them lol. Anyhow I made a mini slimline card thinking it would be an easy make HUH third attempt would you believe. my recycle bin just loves me and never goes hungry lol. 

Here are the ingredients for my so called simple card!

I called this ''Does it fit? said the Prince ''

8 1/2 x 16cm card base (made using white textured card) I wanted to use textured card to give the images further interest instead of it being flat and smooth - NOT so sure it was successful or not lol but showing it anyhow!!

Used stencil spritzed with water and placed onto card

Lavinia stamps - small Pixie boot, Woodland mice and Bird collection

Elements Graphite

Versafine clair Nocturn

Koh-I-Noor watercolour pencilsnumber 18 (blue) and 34 (light blue/grey)

Wink of stella all over the boot, I spared the mouse and birds - didn't want to mess up their feathers and fur

Blue and gold glitter gel pens

Glossy accents on the buttons

Black Sakura glaze pen

White pastel pencil

Sandstone stickles

Lavinia sentiment stickers


Thank you for visiting me today

Also a reminder I made a You Tube video for my previous post Hearts Delight and here is the link to YOU Tube   - just in case you are interested it is only my second attempt so please be kind.
