Design Team member Rosemary Rogers brings us this delightful card featuring one of the cute little hedgehogs from our “Wallace Family” set, together with our Bramble and Blackberry stamps.
The bright sunny weather we’ve been experiencing recently inspired design team member Karen Telfer to create this lovely card with a bright sunny theme. For her background, she chose three shades of Distress oxide with the main point of focus being provided by the Lavinia Stamps Fairy Thistles.
Our final if three turorials, this week, using Brusho powdered inks to create magical backgrounds with a Gel Press. The magnificent Fairy Toadstool, surrounded by foliage created with a selection of our mini pound stamps, make a wonderful elevated playground for our tiny wild hares.
Today Tracey continues the process of using Brusho powdered inks to create wonderful magical backgrounds, this time employing the A5 Gel Press from our Combo Set. The Fairy hive takes the main focus, surrounded by a swathe of foliage created with a selection of our mini pound stamps.
Today Tracey makes a stunning card using our large and intricately detailed Green Man stamp. But before starting the project, she gives us a mini masterclass on the different ways to use the amazingly versatile Brusho powdered inks to create wonderful magical backgrounds.
The good fairy, Aerial, is teaching black cat, Mooch, some rudimentary magic today, and Design Team member Karen Telfer, has created the perfect setting for the lesson, using Distress Oxides and Posca Pens.

Today, design team member Jo Rice pictures the owl, Maylin, in flight above the rooftops, viewed through a foreground of foliage built up using our Tree Brand and Mini Leaf stamps. Finally, she creates a lovely evening watercolour sky using diluted Elements Inks.
For today’s tutorial, Tracey demonstrates the use of the Frisk Masking Fluid Fineliner to create the effect of background grasses by masking off areas of the Multifarious card before saturating with water and sprinkling with Brusho powdered ink.
“Star Burst” seed head stamps, and a selection of mini foliage stamps, complete the picture.

Today’s background is created using our own-branded alcohol inks, Lavinia Pure, applied into the non-porous Yupo paper, where it spreads and blends into beautiful colourful patterns. Then, using the “Alcohol Lift” technique the pattern is “printed” onto Multifarious card ready for stamping.
