A couple of weekends ago I attended a local craft workshop with a talented crafter, Karen Telfer, and a lovely team of ladies. We were using oxide inks, gel plates and brushos to make backgrounds and Lavinia stamps for foregrounds. It was my first attempt with these inky backgrounds.
I took a break from my tidying to finish my card and play along with some challenges. I used Lavinia Backround Script and Sacred Tree (on the horizontal) for my branches with the Crow Set and a Fairy Web. Since the class I have also added a Memory Box gravestone border die cut behind a Martha Stewart punched fence and some Tim Holtz Sizzix Bigz street lamps before adding a simple doodle-style sentiment.
In addition to Lavinia's All Hallows Eve Challenge, I am entering my card into the following challenges
