Syrup of kindness

 


Ellie is our host at Allsorts challenge this week. She's chosen the optional theme of 

MAGICAL, MYTHS, LEGENDS
or
ANYTHING GOES

I've dug out a very old stamp set by Waltzingmouse (discontinued stamps) which I bought preloved a few years ago. It turned out I actually knew the lady selling on a well known auction site through blogging! She even included the die to cut out the stamped image, but I have the set of Spellbinder dies anyway.

I looked through my spare alcohol ink backgrounds and stamped onto one. Then cut with the die and in a larger size a mount from a paper pad designed by Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen. It has some metallic printing but it doesn't show too well in the photo. I also used it for the base and added some script paper from an old pad. 

I took another background I had made and stamped onto it a Debbi Moore fairy panel. Trimmed it down to fit alongside the label. Then I knew somewhere I had a vial from my scrapbooking days that I never used. Once I found it I filled it with sequins and shiny bits which you can see in the photo below a little better. This ties in with the wording on the label.


Finishing touch was to use some unicorn sparkles (from paperchase years ago) over the card. They are very fine and get everywhere!

We have a prize of Lavinia stamps (photos not to scale). Please note, we (Lavinia) cannot provide exchanges/replacements/refunds for any products received through this third-party giveaway.


I'd also like to enter this card into the Crafty Calendar challenge for anything goes. Nice to see the challenge back again.

So beautiful and creatively done Lynn. Love how it turned out. The little medicine (potion) bottle is right up my alley having worked in pharmacy for many years both in Germany and US.

Beautiful fantasy card Lynn, so much detail.

(Thank you for leaving a comment on my owl card. The die I used is 7" wide, so need a A4 die cutting machine.) xx
