lavinia challenge make and a wonderful sports day!

Hello Lovelies - how are you today? I hope you're doing well and have had fun in the sun today. Its been amazing here - such a lovely day. Before I tell you all about sports day I want to share my make with you for the challenge over at lavinia - can't believe I nearly forgot to do this one this month.


The challenge is all about colour - so I got my lovely brushos out again for a play - I know - can't help it - I'm hooked!


All stamps used are from Lavinia.


I introduced a little bit of promarker in the tips of the flower petals. The stamps were initally stamped on water colour card with versa mark and heat set wow embossing powders.

So I'd like to enter this into the following challenges:

laviniastamps-challenge-6
wowembossingpowder june-challenge-summer
theartisticstampercreativeteam junes-creative-challenge-summer-is-on its way

Now its been a wonderful summer sports day for my girls today - here's some pics:





They both did really well - Penny got first in the sack race and 2nd in the skipping race. Lucy got third in both sack race and egg and spoon! And their house priory won too! Woohoo! Well done.

Well thats all for now - the plumber is coming tomorrow hopefully to fix a leak in the bathroom - then I'm looking forward to another swimming lesson. Hope you have a good day!

Big hugs

Rachel x

    Beautiful Brusho background. Your choice of colors was so vivid and perfect for those grand Lavinia stamps. (Which I am really drooling over!). Made a marvelous card. Enjoyed the pictures of the girls too. What pretty ladies they are. I know all of you had such fun. Thanks for the birthday wishes...TFS & Big hugs too.
