New stamps



A post from me that's not a DT post - makes a change.  I had lovely play afternoon -  we had showers,  so the perfect place to be is in the craft room playing with flower stamps from the new release at Lavinia,  a couple of fairly quick makes too, using  some Gelli plate backgrounds that were in a box.

I've used  Twilight Lily and one of the flowers from the Flower Devine set, coloured with watercolour pencils and although it's difficult to see, there's dots of gold glitter above the flower heads and green glitter amongst the stamped grasses.  There's nothing like new stamps to get the mojo going!

Our weather forecast isn't looking too good for the next week, I just hope this week wasn't our summer.
Thanks for calling in, have a great day.
Avril xx

Haven't yet succumbed to these stamps but they're on the toilet roll length wish list!

Gorgeous make Avril, beautiful new makes and a fabulous gel plate background. I got the two individual Lavinia flowers )haven’t inked them up yet) but didn’t get the group of lilies as it didn’t speak to me at the time … but I love how you have combined these stamps. I really don’t need any more though … … xx

Beautiful card Avril, do love the background and pretty flowers.
I am crossing my fingers that we get some more summer days before Autumn arrives, but who knows, just have to enjoy what we can when we can :)) xx

There's nothing like a play day just for you especially with new stamps, a rare thing for me nowadays. Beautiful card Avril, i'm always in awe of anyone who can design a flat card I find it impossible not to tinker & add something dimensional. Love your colour choice. Stunning display!!
