Hi! Welcome to my blog.
My story begins in the early pre-dawn hours of a lovely Autumn morning, when most critters are still enjoying a snooze, and the first light is a blend of moonshine and sun's twilight in that cozy pinky-salmon color.

Lavinia World happens!
These are the Lavinia World products used on this project:
To make this fun card, I started by using one of the beautiful backgrounds available from the Lavinia World artist. It is a 5 x 7.5" card, and I trimmed it to 5x5 by cutting 2.5" off the top, after altering the color of the background by using a finger dauber and Aged Mahogany Distress ink:
Choosing a pinky salmon scrap of cardstock and VersaFine Clair Acorn Brown ink, I stamped the house and heat set it with clear detail detail EP. After the ink dried, it was fussy cut. Highlights were added with Zig Cartoonist Brush Pen - White.
Before adhering the house, Stars Miniature was stamped with VersaFine Clair Nocturne ink. Also with black ink, Leaf 2 Miniature and Creeping Vine (upside-down) were added and heat set with a copper EP containing glitter.
Finally the fairies were stamped and heat set with black detail EP:

This is beautiful, Donna. If it was evening, I would say it it the "gloaming" time of day, but I don't know the dawn's equivalent to that. Your fairy house seems to glow in the colors you chose to use. Very effective! Great project, Donna!

Oh my, this is gorgeous! What a fantastic paper to use as background. Love the house and fairies you’ve added, along with that pretty bronze like sparkling foliage. So beautiful!
Oh Donna, I just love what you did with this card. Love how you altered the background colous to showcase your fairy scene. I would imagine that in a Fairy World, this would be the colour of dusk. Gorgeous card, my friend
Have a wonderful day.
