Spring at Night

I finally did it and can start using some silhouette stamps

 It took a while for me to find a way to use my Lavinia stamps and not be disappointed with the result.
Normally I would try and make backgrounds the way they show in the video's but I always end up with a mess or with something that I'm not happy with and gets tossed in the bin.

After making a bunch of cards with my own papers and images, I gave the stamps another thought.
So after creating a few backgrounds, I printed them on 160gsm, as they will be layered on 300gsm black cardstock, there was no need for heavier paper.

The theme over at the Lavinia Stamps challenge is The Joys of Spring and I was wondering, what would these Three Woodland Mice do in the spring, would they be searching for some magic too?
Even though the moon is not on the tag, it shines bright enough for us to see the wonderful magical spring colors.

So Yay, here's my first tag using the Lavinia stamps.

Materials used:
Cardstock black
Epson ET-2860
Clairefountaine 160gsm
Crealies Tag dies
Versafine ink
Lavinia stamps: Basil, Three Woodland Mice and Believe In Magic
Lavinia Acetate Hill Masks
Stickles

Digi Doodle Stamps by Tindaloo ~ on Etsy
prize: 3 x digi stamps!

For this challenge I've made 3 "St. Patrick's Day cards" using the quick card sets from

Stay Lucky

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Patty's Pint

These are so easy and quick to make.
As for my work progress:
 I've printed and cut the layers. (Epson ET-2860 on Clairefountaine 160gsm)

Used some cut up Amazon packaging envelopes to layer the card and pop the images.

After I've layered the elements, I stuck the entire base onto a regular 14.8 x 10.5 base card.
(Bought from Action)
All cards are touched up with a bit of glitter glue.
Unfortunately, the glitters do not show on the images. (working on that)
As I was in a bit of a rush and didn't do anything else with them.
And tbh, I did not think it was needed.

Thank you for dropping by
