Lavinia Stamps Challenge - February

Hi Everyone and my New Year's Resolution to blog more just went out the window.  So February resolution then ...

Congratulations to last month's winner and this month's theme is Lilac or Blue or both!  Wonderful colours.  Remember the prize is a huge £40 worth of stamps, just pop over to Lavinia and join in.  Now that we accept e-mail entries it's so easy.  As an added bonus, for the month of February there will be a SPOT PRIZE.  All you have to do is leave a comment under the Feb Challenge post.  There will be a draw at the end of the month and the winner will receive a £20 voucher to spend on the Lavinia Stamps web shop - HOW FAB IS THAT!

Here are my samples for the month:


This is a MDF shape which I painted with Lilac Chalk acrylic then stamped over with Fairy Words in Distress Ink Salty Ocean and added a few Miniature Hearts with DI Faded Jeans.  I then stamped the lovely Flower Fairy on with Metallic Purple and heat embossed with clear embossing powder.

My second sample:

 
 
I blended Distress Inks Faded Jeans and Shaded Lilac for the background of this one after first putting my circle mask down for the moon.  I then stamped with salty ocean with Dandilions2, vine and field grass.  After that I layered with lilac and blue card and added some tulle and a jewel which I mounted on card.
 
Hope you like my samples and thank you so much for looking.
 
Have a great weekend.  Kx
