Lavinia Stamps "Secrets."

Once again, I was inspired by a card Eileen Godwin had done. I remember the first time I watched her create something. It was a 'lightbulb' moment for me. I knew in an instant that this was the kind of art I wanted to do. I love Eileen's style of art, it's clean and elegant, and very calming. When I create  something like this, nothing else exists, the world and all it's sometimes ugly bits and everything else just melt away,  and it's only me and my art! To create this, I used a square shaped sticker stencil, and placed it in the center of a square white card. I used a circle mask and a stencil brush to add colour, (Distress Oxide ink pads) moving the mask to create half circles on the left side of the card. I then stamped the Thistle stamp on the right hand side, and stamped the sentiment half way up the card. The stamp I chose purposely fits 'around' the sentiment. The last thing I did was to add a tiny dot of Silver Stickles on the top of each spikey bit on the Thistles. I really enjoy creating this kind of art, it's very relaxing and un-complicated. Thanks for dropping by! Have a SUNSHINE day! Remember to always be your authentic self, and shine bright each and every day!
