Snail Mail

 Hello everyone!  I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend.  I thought I would drop by to share a card I made using my new Snail Set stamp from Lavinia Stamps.  I would never have thought I would have bought a snail stamp, but for some reason I couldn't resist. 

I had found a background I had made previously and was not happy with it.  I almost tossed it, but then thought I would just see what I could do with it.   I also used my new Fairy Bells stamp along with the Mini Leaf 2 stamp to create my little scene.  I used Versafine Claire inks in Twilight, Nocturne, and Rain Forest.    I originally used Twilight to highlight the circle  in the middle, maybe a sun, but something was missing.  I then used the negative and white pigment ink. That was too stark, so I went over it with Squeezed Lemonade Distress Oxide Ink.  That was better.  You can't really tell in the photo. I used my Inktense pencils to add a little color to my snail.  I decorated the inside as well. 

 

All in all, it turned out a lot better than I thought it would.  I'm a sucker for a good note card. 

That's all for me today.  I have a few more things I'll try to get posted in the upcoming week, so stop back by.  I'll be entering this in the Lavinia World Challenge #33.   Thanks again for stopping by!  Until next time, stay safe and stay creative!
