I've been wanting to play with this gorgeous stamp for a while now - and it turns out this small fairy chain is the perfect size for a tag.
My original idea was to create a painted background for the fairies using my gelli plate but I just wasn't feeling it! Sometimes you just have to leave something that's not working - and it can end up working differently when you return to it another time.
So I started again and this time used a single colour of paint and decided to see what happens when paint is lifted off the gelli plate with a Lavinia stamp. I was really pleased with the effect but the magic occurred when I added the distress ink, which is resisted by the acrylic paint :)
This was a fab project to work on and I'll certainly be playing with this idea further. If you want to know/see more, my step by step guide to creating this tag is over on the Lavinia Stamps website .
Thanks for visiting today :)
