Lorre-Anne DT - Da Vinci Hochanda samples

Hi everyone, I've been busy the past few weeks designing samples for the recent Bee Crafty shows on Hochanda... this time round I was playing with the Da Vinci stamps and here is what I came up with.

Materials

• Sforza Horse stamp
• Vitruvian Man stamp
• Wings stamp
• Laurel Border stamp
• Crackle Paint stamp
• Script stamp
• Ticker Tape sentiments stamp

• Birds and Butterflies stamps
• Distress Oxides (Spiced Marmalade, Vintage Photo, Broken China, Walnut Stain)

Background created using S.Marmalade, V.Photo & B.China Distress Oxides.  Science Of Beauty and Laurel Border stamped using Versafine ink.

Background created using B.China Distress Ink & Oxide.  Sforza Horse stamped using Versafine ink - stamped around the edge of the card using a section of the Science Of Beauty stamp.

Stamped the wings and Vitruvian Man using Versamark ink and heat embossed with Clear embossing powder.

Created a shadow box card from 2 pieces of 7" x 7" cardstock.  Stamped the script on the outer panel, the crackle on the inner panel and the Vitruvian Man using using W.Stain ink.

Background created using T.Citron, S.Shutters, P.Paint & C.Olive inks. Stamped the script using P.Paint ink, and also blended this through the Distressed Harlequin.  Stamped the Sforza horse using Versafine ink, and added some colour using P.Paint and a water brush.

The central purple square was achieved by smooshing some D.Concord ink on an acrylic block, spritzing with water and pressing the block to the centre of the card.  Leave for 5 minutes for colour to intensify, remove then dry using heat tool.  I stamped the Science Of Beauty using Versafine ink.  Finished by adding Ticker Tape sentiments.

Panel masked off with tape, I blended P.Raspberry & P.Feathers in this to achieve the colours, then blended some ink through the Distressed Harlequin Dinkable.  I also took a damp baby wipe and rubbed through some of the Distressed Harlequin.  I stamped a few butterflies in this panel too, then removed the masking tape.  The Science Of Beauty and Laurel Border was stamped using Versafine ink.

I really had fun playing with these stamps, and I hope you like what I created using them.  Be back next week with a new project to share with you all.

Hugs, Lorre-Anne x
