Hi. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is a super cute Autumn card </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used the Wallace Family from Lavinia Stamps.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For this I did the Joseph's Colour Technique.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A beautiful technique that can be used with any other stamps.</div>

I cut a piece of card measuring 5 1/4" x 7 3/4". And randomly blended the colours. I used Distress Oxide Fossilised Amber, Peeled Paint and Fired Brick. I also used a Distress Ink Spiced Marmalade. Those are the colours I kept to, to make this card.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
I then used my<a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/oak-leaf-branch"> Oak Leaf</a> to stamp all around the edge. I didn't do the middle as that would be covered by the topper. I Used an embossing pad to stamp with and Wow! Clear Gloss Embossing powder and heat set it.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
Now, Time for the magic to happen.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
Once all the heat embossing has been done I waited for a few moments for it to cool down. Then I used Distress Oxide Black Soot, blending it all over. But any other colour like Brown will work. Because of the Heat embossing the ink will not stay on it. After a few seconds after blending the ink all over it. Buff up the card with a paper towel or in my case an old tea towel that I use instead of paper towels. I wasn't too bothered about it being patchy in the middle as that will be covered by the topper.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
I used another piece of card and cut it a bit bigger than what I wanted, hence the reason why there is two pencil marks to show where I need to cut it down to size. The topper size is 5 1/2" x 3 1/2 " With the Peeled Paint and a mini smoother I Flicked the colour from one side so it was darker at one edge than the top. I found it was easier to cut a bit bigger piece to hold onto and less chance of the card bending as you were flicking the smoothie over it. I then gentle flicked some water over it and dabbed it with my tea towel. Then used my heat gun to dry it before I started to stamp it.</div>

Once I trimmed it to size and keeping the darker edge to the bottom. I used the Oak Leaf stamp and used Peeled Paint. Spiced Marmalade and Fired Brick. Then I stamped the leaves with Fossilized Amber along the top to create depth.</div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
I then stamped the Wallace Family in brown then stamped them again with a bit of black on the bottom where their paws are. With the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/foliage">foliage</a> and the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/mini-maple-leaf">maple leaf</a> I stamped it randomly with the heavier stamping at the bottom and the secondary stamping ( getting 2 prints from the stamp before getting anymore ink.)towards the middle. I then stamped the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/mini-berry">Mini Berries</a> along the bottom and used Cosmic Shimmer Berry Red Glue to make the dots on the berries. But do this after you have done you Matt and layering on you card. Dabbed the mini smoothie with some Brown gently under the hedgehogs to create a shadow. Used a white Uni ball Signo pen to to do some tiny flicks on the spikes of the hedgehogs. Used a Sakura Gold Gelly Roll pen to do some gold dots in the leaves. This will fit onto a C5 card, with a bigger border. I made this card blank, so this is why I only have a small border around it.</div>

Been along time since I made one of those cards, and was wondering if I could do one with using Lavinia Stamps. So I made it with Using Brusho's, Ivory Card, Black card, (I love using Black Card.) Versafine Clair and Lavinia Stamps. To Make this card I used:</div>

With you A4 card you need to trim the long length edge down to 29cm. And score at 14.5cm to fold the card in half. As the diagram shows. On the short edge mark 5.5cm from both corners and the along the long side measure 11cm from the corner, and join them up. So you end up with a cross. From the cross measure up 1.5 cm ( <span style="color: red;">red</span> line on diagram.)</div>

Cut away the corners and diagonally join up the 1.5cm marks with a small ball tool to form a cross and the middle of the cross should be in the middles of your previous score line. Fold and burnish with a bone folder to get a nice crisp edges. </div>

You might need to trim abit of the sides down if its to big to fit on the front of your card. With a large circle place it in the middle but towards the top and blend Distress Oxide Peacock Feathers. Then flick some water on and leave for a few seconds before you dab it with some kitchen roll/tissue to make some water droplets. Dry it with the heat gun. Blend around the edge with Versafine Clair Blue Belle and gently blend the bottom of the circle to create some depth/ shadow.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Stamp a sentiment in the middle of the circle and stick it on the top of the card. You can on the back put some card to write on. Cut a strip of card to go round the card to make a Belly Band Wrap. I stamped the stars on with Versafine Clair Blue Belle and used the Wow Embossing glitter. Which looks a bit like fairy dust as the stars are small.</div>

Hi, again. So this month theme is to Make It Bright. Using lovely bright colours and thinking of summer.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
For this challenge I used Simmi as you can use any colours for her so I made her bright with the Indian Flourish stamp. Then blended around the edges with the same colour. For this card I used the following:</div>

With the 5" x 7" Ivory card. I roughly stamped Simmi in the middle with the Versafine Clair Nocturne. Then with a fine paint brush I started to colour her eyes with the Brusho's mixed with water. Blending the Vermilion and yellow together on the eyebrow. Turquoise for the the bottom of the eyebrow, eyelid and under the eye. Vermilion on the outer of her eye underneath. And mixed a bit of Yellow and Vermilion for the Inner part of the eye underneath. Used Sunburst Yellow to colour around the whole eye and decorations.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
With the Indian Flourish I used Versafine Clair Warm Breeze to stamp around her eye. Then used a smoothie to blend the same ink around and coming in quiet deep into the middle.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I then matt and layered the card using my Perfect Layer ruler with another sheet of Ivory underneath, then Black card. I used the rest of the Ivory card to cover the A5 card blank. I then Used my glitter pen on the Indian Flourish on the dots and some of the swirls. On Simmi I sued the glitter pen for the dots on her eyelashes and for the dots underneath her eyes. The Cosmic Shimmer PVA was used on the dots on her eyebrow and above.</div>

This card was made with using new stamps I brought at the weekend and had to have a go with them.I love Black and Ivory together. The Ivory is much softer than white. All i used to create the background was to sprinkle Brusho's Green Moss onto some card that I lightly spritzed with some water. Here is what I used to make this card:</div>

With both Ivory card spritz it with some water and sprinkle the Brusho's Green Moss over the card. Spritz it more if needed to get the colour activated. I then used some kitchen roll to soak up the colour as I wanted a gentle background. This photo shows the difference between them. The left side is where I used the Kitchen roll and you can see the difference. Used a heat gun to help dry the and put it to one side.</div>

Created this card as a bit of an experiment. I brought a new Brusho colour called Sunburst Lemon. Which is a very bright yellow, so I made a few background with it experimenting with colour and this background I loved as it was a grey background with water marks and this bright yellow in the middles. I also brought some Cosmic Shimmer Twinkles which is a Glitter Glue with a nozzle. So I wanted to see how they were and the glow flowers were perfect for using the glitter glue, plus I used some on the Spanish Moss hanging down. To make this card I used the following:</div>

The background was done using those products. I loaded up the brayer with ink from the Colorbox Ink Pad and and rolled it onto the gel press. I then flicked some water onto the gel press with the fan shaped brush. Mixed some Brusho Sunburst Lemon with some water and flicked that onto the Gel Press before I placed my card blank on top. With the cardstock on the Gel Press, I gave the back a rub to get the print of the Gel Press. When done I peeled off my cardstock Giving me my background for the card.</div>

Before I stamp. I get the main stamps I want to use and peel them off from the sheet and lay them onto the card so it gives me an idea of how things are going to look. I also put my mask for the moon/sun down with the stamp sheets. Nothing worse than stamping and then realising you don't like it. When you are happy with it you then can start to stamp.</div>

Now you can see the Moon/sun. Now to start creating my scene. With the single,large Glow Flower I stamped First then stamped Jaylar on top of the flower. I used the large Glow Flower from the set of two to stamp next to the Glow Flower. I used the Willow as Grass. Used the large one and used a second generation of stamping. ( Stamp it first onto some scrap paper then stamp it onto your cardstock to get a softer stamped image, so it looks like it's in the distance.) I then used the small one and stamped it at the bottom as soon as it was loaded with ink.</div>

Matt the card onto the white card blank with the size you like. I used a <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/Stix2-S57321-Perfect-Metric-Layer/dp/B00Q2VLEWY/ref=pd_cp_201_3/259-0790657-4451853?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B00Q2VLEWY&pd_rd_r=a7f269af-675a-11e9-bc2a-af7dc3ab4573&pd_rd_w=bMREi&pd_rd_wg=yazoW&pf_rd_p=01704ebe-a86a-4b47-8c36-0f9f5bbc2882&pf_rd_r=BQX71B62XGJ6G86A7VM9&psc=1&refRID=BQX71B62XGJ6G86A7VM9">Perfect Layer</a> Ruler to do my matt for my card. Glued the black card onto the blank A5 card. Then Glued the Stamped card into position. Then I used the Sakura glitter pen for her wings by doing random dots on her wings and to go round the moon.With the Twinkles (Glitter Glue that gives dimension when dried.) I used it on the Glow flowers and on the Spanish moss as shown on the photo above. The white pen to add some white dots on the Spanish Moss and to highlight Jaylar.</div>

Made those two cards for a sketch challenge where we were given a sketch to use. It was a landscape sketch but I knew it wouldn't work so I did it portrait position. Sketches are like a blueprint to follow but great to get your mojo back or to try a different style.Each layer was layered with foam pads. Stamps are from <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/"><span style="color: blue;">Lavinia Stamps.</span></a></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The backing paper on this card was done by stamping the<span style="color: blue;"> <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/forest-so-green-lav525"><span style="color: blue;">verse</span></a></span> was stamped several times to cover the edge of the card. The main background was done with using a Gel Press and used Colorbox Storm for the colour then flicked Grey and Orange Brusho's onto the Gel press before placing my card over to get the print. I then stamped <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/winifred-lav529"><span style="color: blue;">Winifred</span></a> using Versafine Clair Nocturne. The with a circle and a strip of card I blended around the circle to create a moon and the strip was to ground the fairy. Then stamped the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/flower-flourish"><span style="color: blue;">flower flourish</span></a> in Versafine Clair Twilight. Then at the top of the card I used Versafine Clair Warm Breeze to stamp the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/wild-vines"><span style="color: blue;">wild vines</span></a>. For the border I Used a brayer and used Colorbox Storm to gently colour the border before I stamped the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/stars-2"><span style="color: blue;">stars</span></a> in three different colours, those being Versafine Clair Warm Breeze and Twilight. Distress Oxide Spiced Marmalade. I used the same three colours to do the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/inspire-me-lav519"><span style="color: blue;">words</span></a> and the blending around the words. Matt and layered with black and white card and foam pads for each layer. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
The background card was done by my new stamp. A background <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/background-script">script</a>,Stamped that four times to cover the card. Then I used my gel Press with a brayer and the colour I used was Colorbox Storm. I then flicked some water onto the Gel Press, before using a white piece of card to get the print of the Gel Press. I stamped the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/bellas-house"><span style="color: blue;">house</span></a> in Versafine Clair Nocturne then placed a paper mask over the house to protect whilst I carried on stamping. Did the blending around a circle for the moon and did a bit of grounded for the house. Stamped the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/large-path"><span style="color: blue;">large path</span></a> in Nocturne. The <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/lavender"><span style="color: blue;">lavender</span></a> was stamped in two colours the flower part was in Versafine Clair Purple Delight and the stem Nocturne. Stamped the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/seed-heads"><span style="color: blue;">seed heads</span></a> in the bottom left corner with Nocturne. Stamped the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/mini-leaf-5"><span style="color: blue;">leaves</span></a> several times in Versafine Clair Nocturne. For the Border I used <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/miniature-group-of-hearts"><span style="color: blue;">cluster of hearts</span></a> in second generation of Versafine Clair Warm Breeze and Purple Delights. Then used the <span style="color: blue;"><a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/miniature-single-heart">heart</a> </span>stamp with Versafine Clair Monarch, the deep purple hearts.I did the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/inspire-me-lav519"><span style="color: blue;">words</span></a> and part of the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/home-is-where"><span style="color: blue;">home</span></a> phrase in the same colours I did the hearts in and blended the edges as well. I used Brusho grey, Yellow and purple to paint the house with and for the path. Matt and layered using black and white card and foam pads to layer the layers with. Once finished I then used a white pen for some highlights on the house and a Sakura Clear Glitter pen on the windows. Cosmic Shimmer Black Pearl and Ivory pva Glue for the seed heads, around the leaves and some on the border to give a bit of dimension.</div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Hello and welcome to my new blog. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This is all new to me, so please be kind to me as I learn more about Blogging. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I have been crafting for a while, but stamping is my passion. I love to be able to create something the way I want to. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">You're probably wondering why am I starting a blog? Well, I don't do YouTube and have had a lot of people asking me is there a tutorial for the cards I have made. Sadly, the answer has been "Sorry, but no." So I've been sitting on this fence wondering whether or not to do one. Then a friend said you can do one as a digital library as in; what you used, how you did it and what materials I used.. Now, why didn't I think of that?And so, here I am.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I hope you enjoy my blog and come on a journey with me as we travel along this road together.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This blog will be based on my crafty journey and maybe the odd photos of my dog, who I adopted when she was weeks old and now is aged four.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

It's from a set of two houses from Lavinia Stamps called <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/bellas-house">Bellas House</a>.<br />
<br />
I created the background on a gel press. By using a brayer and a ink pad from Colorbox called storm and rolled it onto the Gell Press. With some bubble wrap I dabbed the gel press to give some interest to the background.<br />
<br />
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiimr7pNbvnxDJQvPMAyjiMbXpZS3v8WKtSejCtKHwQ_rMlVM3IxEEfw9CrOXDR38EhK4vgDgc7rcXuEkbuBYt-jeZeK8tc85HfQkI53QtwJZbtf-s-2l-HlZL25GyOVTziUstEdrca47s/s1600/Home.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1024" data-original-width="731" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiimr7pNbvnxDJQvPMAyjiMbXpZS3v8WKtSejCtKHwQ_rMlVM3IxEEfw9CrOXDR38EhK4vgDgc7rcXuEkbuBYt-jeZeK8tc85HfQkI53QtwJZbtf-s-2l-HlZL25GyOVTziUstEdrca47s/s320/Home.jpg" width="228" /></a><br />
I then stamped the house using Versafine Clair Nocturne to stamp with and then applied a paper mask over it so that I could continue in stamping the card. I then stamped <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/lavender">lavender</a> using Versamark Clair Purple Delight for the flower and Nocturne for the stem of the lavender. I cut a circle out for the moon and used a strip of card to ground the house. With using a <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/mini-smoothies">Smoothie</a> I then blended around the moon and the ground.<br />
<br />
On the right side of the card I stamped <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/fairy-words">Fairy Words</a> on a second generation of ink ( stamping it first onto scrap paper and then stamping it again onto the card, so the words were softer)all the way down repeating the stamp a few times. I then stamped <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/home-is-where">Home is where the heart is</a> on my stamping platform with Versafine Clair Nocturne then I used clear embossing powder to heat emboss.<br />
<br />
Randomly I stamped the <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/miniature-group-of-hearts">cluster of mini hearts</a> with Versafine Clair Purple delights and used clear embossing powder to heat emboss. Then I did some in second generation. And some in Versafine Clair Twilight in second generation, too.<br />
I then used Brusho's to paint the house with. The colours were Purple, Grey and Yellow. Used a glitter pen for the windows and a white pen to do some highlights on the house.<br />
<br />
I then stamped some <a href="https://laviniastamps.com/product/mini-berry">mini berries</a> in the corner of the card and used Cosmic Shimmer Black Pearl PVA glue to give some texture to them.<br />
<br />
I then used Distress Oxide Black Soot to gently blend around the edge of the card before I matt and layered it onto black and white card.<br />
