It's been a while since I used my Lavinia stamps and thought it would be fun to create a background full of circles for a magical fairy scene. There are now a few Lavinia stamps retailers in the US, and I just discovered some are now found on Amazon. If you're new to this brand, they are clear photopolymer stamps and do require a stamping tool like a stamp platform or at least a clear stamping block in a size that fits the stamps, but I definitely recommend a stamp platform with any type of silhouette stamps.

The larger circles were done with a homemade stencil using circle dies and an old school folder with my Big Shot machine. The small circles inside the larger circles were done with TCW Circle Explosion stencil. 

Distress Oxide inks were used for the stencilling and Versafine Clair Nocturne ink for the stamping. The sentiment on the bottom is a sticker from Tim Holtz' Quotations sticker set, and "Dream Big" is one of Penny Black's sentiment from the set Snippets. 

I used a Sakura stardust glitter pen to add some sparkles to the fairy wings and flowers.


Thanks so much for visiting!!
