Visible Image Stamps, Distress Inks, and Stickles.

Hi there friends,

I expect you're all getting ready for the festive season, I'm not nearly ready yet, but I shall panic nearer the time, hehehe.

I'm here again to share another creation I've made using some of the fantastic Visible Image stamps, but especially one of the new 'Express Yourself range, Never Grow Up.

The other stamps I've used are.... the tape measure from The Sewing Room, the numbers from Time after Time, and the stars from Jake Skates Set.

I started off by blending Salty Ocean, Mustard Seed and Picked Raspberry Distress inks, which makes a lovely bright multi colour effect. Using Salty Ocean and the Tape measure stamp, I stamped twice at different angles, masking in the middle so one went under the other, and gently coloured them using some ink and a water brush. I then used the Numbers stamp and Picked Raspberry and stamped under the tape. I stamped the starts randomly, again using the same colours.

I coloured a separate piece of card for the sentiment and stamped it, mat and layered and added it at a jaunty angle. T finish off I used Stickles to highlight bits of the stamping.

My favourite stamp from the new range, it seems to have been made for me !!!
