Lavinia World Challenge #10 ~ Bluebell Fairyland

Hello crafting friends and welcome to challenge #10 at Lavinia World,

where the theme is always Anything Goes!

I have a whimsical birthday card to share with you today.

I always enjoy mixing my dies and stamps to create a project, and that is exactly what I did today, except that I added a piece of beautiful background paper too.

I started my card by cutting a black piece of shimmery cardstock at 11.5" x 5.75" and folded it in half. So this is a rather large square card - it measures 5.75" x 5.75". To cut out the front of the card, I used the Bluebell Fairy Edger die from Creative Expressions.

Next, I adhered the Midnight Haze background paper. On this paper, I stamped the Spiral of Spells over the moonlight glow.  To complete my scene, I stamped the Midnight Meandering bunnies, the Mini Snail and the Mini Slender Mushrooms, all using Versafine Nocturne ink.  To add to my scene on the top of the card, I stamped two of the Fairy Foragers, and to add a little more interest, I stamped the Small Whimsical Whisps, randomly on the edge of the paper.

In order to be able to write a personal message, I took a piece of lilac card stock and sponged the edges with Bahama Blue Memento Ink.  Then I cut a Doodle Square, from Marianne Design, and used that to frame the message that I will write.  To make it a little extra special, I stamped another couple of the Fairy Foragers.

I also sponged the corners of this 6" x 6" envelope with Distress Dusty Concord ink, and stamped another of the Fairy Foragers, just for good measure :-)

Thank you so much for stopping by.  I hope you enjoyed your visit and will make a project to come play along with us.  Although our theme is always Anything Goes, you do have to use physical stamps, either rubber or clear. 

 NO DIGI stamps allowed.
