Monday means Lavinia Homework

Good morning all, 

I do hope you are keeping well. 

A very good friend of mine has had a really rough time, 

As her husband is in hospital. 

It is so sad as all I can do is message her and support her. 

So I really do want to have a group hug. 

From the bottom of my heart , 

Honestly we need to help and support each other. 

So today I have some Lavinia homework for you. 

As you know I post this every Monday on our 

Lavinia For You Facebook page. 

This week, 

We are going to give our piece a title (just for fun ) 

Mine is 

Hide and Seek 

I thought we could just make an inky background

Great way to practice your blending 

Just choose 3 colours, 

And have an inky ‘ work out ‘

Add some water splats. 

And then some stamping, 

I used a coloured VersaFine ink pad alongside the black one. 

This helps to build up depth. 

Next some spotlighting using an acetate moon mask , plus I blended some brown ink around the edges. 

I added some colour with pencils. 

Some script stamping 

To add extra dimension I used a VersaFine pen and a clear embossing powder. 

Now you know how I love my Posca pens. 

They just add the finishing touches. 

Hopefully you can see the sheen on the flower..

This piece really made me smile, 

I know I am silly, 

But in my head , 

Floppy and Mopsy are looking for Cottontail. 

He is hiding , 

But he thinks he might be in trouble, hence his ears are down. 

I wonder what he did, ? 

That part of the story I will leave up to you .

Have a lovely Bank Holiday Monday 

Take care all 

Much love and hugs
