Learning a new technique.

Yesterday Jacqui and I attended a fabulous course in Maidstone given by the awesome LisaB from Lisa.B Designs, we were learning to use a brayer and working with fabulous Lavina Stamps. It was a really great afternoon and we learnt alot. So i thought i would show you exactly what we learnt.

Here is the card I made at the class, I would love to say I brayed the background, but unfortunately I didn’t it was a one of a number of card blanks that was on sale at the Mobile Shop in the Hall. I did stamp it though I used Milled Lavender and Black Archival Ink to stamp the flowers, fairy and unicorn, then added Gold stickles to the Flowers, the middle was cut with nesties and matted and 3d back on to the card blank, I think it looks great.
