Foxes come knocking.

 

Hello everyone.

Wow! What a fabulous weekend it’s been. Still a few more 

demos to come and a few more prizes to be won. 

The Lavinia extravaganza is a fabulous idea and I hope 

You are all enjoying the videos and step by step tutorials

 that the team have put together. Congratulations to all the winners 

so far.

This is my first step by step tutorial for Lavinia stamps.

The foxes come knocking. 

I’m using the Druids Inn tree, as this is one of my favourite’s

and I thought it would make a lovely home for the new foxes.

 

The Products that I used, were…

Druids inn             Climbing Ivy

Ivy Stencil              Flourish Stencil

Vine Flourish         Field grass

Fairy Foragers       Multifarious Card

The Tutorial for creating

The Foxes come Knocking.

Step 1. 

Using a 17 cm square piece of multifarious card, gently blend squeezed lemonade oxide ink onto the top 2 thirds of the card, using a makeup brush.

 

Step 2.

Stamp Druids inn with Acorn versaFine Clair ink, then heat emboss with clear embossing powder.

 

Step 3

Using Tea dye distress oxide blend under Druids inn to make a den, then use shabby shutters distress oxide, either side of den to create a grass area.

Step 4

Stamp Climbing ivy with rain forest versaFine Clair, using 1^st and 2^nd generation stamping either side of the den.

 

 

Step 5

Using the Ivy stencil, place stencil over den area and gently blend over using Tea dye oxide ink, with a makeup brush.

 

Step 6

Make sure that all ink is dry for the next step. Stamp foxes using a stamping platform, versamark ink and antistatic pad, sprinkle over crackling campfire distress glaze, then heat from underneath.

Step 7

Gently brush over flourish stencil with dried marigold oxide ink, on both sides of Druids inn.

 

Step 8

Place a 10cm circle mask, over the center of the druids inn then brush around edge with dried marigold oxide ink to make a sun.

 

Step 9

Stamp vine flourish with acorn versaFine Clair ink using 1^st and 2^nd generation stamping.

 

Step 10

Blend gathered twigs oxide ink around edge of card, add a little extra under base of foxes at base of card, to ground them.Mix a some mica gold powder with a little water and paint the druids inn bark with this, highlight leaves foxes and sun with clear sukura stardust pen. Use a grey pencil as a shadow for the foxes.

Step 11

Stamp small fairy with black onyx versaFine ink, and emboss with clear embossing powder. Using rain forest VersaFine Clair ink stamp field grass using 2^nd generation stamping, either side of the climbing ivy. Mount onto 8” square card to finish.

 

 

 

Take care, stay safe.
