The Silver Stamper

  Hello, again, stampin' friends.     This simple card can also be used as an anniversary or even BFF card. First, on watercolor cardstock, using Stampin' Up! ink pads and the Aqua Painter (now called Water Painters), I created a washed landscape-type background.  The trees are from the Snowfront SU! stamp set, stamped in Gorgeous Grape.       I die cut a heart "window" with an older SU! hearts die set on white cardstock and mounted it over the watercolor background piece.  I stamped the rabbits with Versafine Clair Nocturne (black) ink and the hearts with red.  Rabbits:  Lavinia Stamps Wild Hares (large) set.

Hello, Again -       Another sweet Valentine or anniversary card using Lavinia Stamps.  This card was super simple and uses just two stamps!  The rest is all from Lavinia Stamps' Misty Morning Scene Scapes.  The Lavinia Stamps I used are Willow Arch and Star Gazing.     If you'd like to know where I purchase my Lavinia Stamps in the US, leave a comment below.

Good afternoon, Stampers!     Thought I'd share a couple of Valentine-themed projects this weekend.  All of the stamps are by Lavinia Stamps, including the background text, and stamped with VersaFine Clair inks.  The "boat" is colored with Stampin' Blends.  The background scene is also from Stampin' Up! -  6x6 New Horizons DSP.     I'll post another one or two tomorrow or Monday.

  Hello, Stampers!     I've been playing around again.  I know it's past the time these little mice would be finding their Christmas tree, but I've seen this clever idea a couple of times online and had to CASE.  However, I did add my own extra features to the story - the figures in the background.     The inks I brushed and sponged are a combination of Versafine Claire, Stampin' Up! and Distress Oxide. The stamp sets are below.   Happy Stampin'!

  Hello, Stampers!     This is definitely post the season, but I wanted to share with you my shameless IDEA CAS from Robin Riley on the FB Group, Del Bello's Designs Lounge (stamping with Lavinia Stamps only).  The hat is paper-pieced with DSP.  I didn't make my version in time to send out to anyone - maybe next year.  Please comment below if you like it or have any questions.  Supplies listed below.
