Now here is my card for Lavinia World Challenge #4:
Ingredients:
White card stock
Watercolor paper
Neenah Solar White paper
Black ink
Copic markers
Milled Lavender distress ink
Versamark
Clear embossing powder
Peony Color Burst
Prussian Blue Color Burst
Wisteria Color Burst
For this A2 card I started with White card stock for the base of the card. I took a piece of Watercolor paper, Versamark and the Lavinia Stamps Background Script and stamped that onto the paper. I heat embossed it with Clear embossing powder and then I spritzed it with some water. I took the Peony, Prussian Blue and Wisteria Color Bursts and sprinkled them onto the paper and then dabbed the paper with a paper towel. I spritzed the paper with more water and dabbed it some more. Once the paper was dry I took my deckle edge ruler and tore along the edges of the paper and attached that to the card base. I took a piece of Neenah Solar White paper, black ink and the Lavinia Hobbit Home Large stamp and stamped that onto the paper. I colored in the image with Copic markers and then I ripped around the edge of the image. I took some Milled Lavender distress ink and rubbed that onto the paper around the Hobbit Home and then I added that to the card.
This is so stunning, Lori!! The background looks amazing!! I thought the torn edges were the white paper like a frame until I read how you created it!! The hobbit home looks amazing and you've showcased it so beautifully!! Happy 4th!! Have a great day!! Big hugs :)

Happy 4th to you, Lori! What a masterpiece of glorious colors! The background stamp has been on my wish list, and now I can see even more ways of using it! Truly lovely! I love the feel that these elements were torn out of a story book, to make your card even more magical! hugs, de
