Visible Image Stamps, Deco-art Fluid Acrylics, Wow EP's and Stickles.

Hello there,

It's Good Friday, the beginning of a fabulous Easter Weekend, I hope you all have something exciting planned, or just go for total relaxation, whatever you do, enjoy it.

Today I'm sharing a wacky, bright card I've created, using a selection of awesome Visible Image Stamps.

The stamps I used were.......

Tomorrow doesn't Exist, Angels are Near, Destination Unknown, and the stars from Feel the Beat.

The Background is created with Fluid Acrylic paints, added to the card with a palette knife, I then stamped the 'Jumping Girl' using Versamark, and heat embossed it with Black Embossing powder, I did the same with the stars, after adding the feathers, which were heat embossed with some Florescent Green EP. I made the straight lines with a ruler and a black pen. On a separate piece of card, I stamped the little boat, plane, and the sentiments I wanted ( all from Destination Unknown), and fussy cut them, and added them to the card.

Visible Image Stamps, Distress Inks, Wow Embossing Powder, and Stickles.

Hi there,

Another week has passed and it's Fabulous Friday once again, so my day to share something I've created using some awesome Visible Image Stamps.

I had a Workshop planned for last Sunday, but as we had snow, I decided it was better to cancel it, to keep everyone safe. Three of the Crafters were all together, so I challenged them to make an ATC (Artist Trading Card, which are 2.5" x 3.5" ), to use 3 colours plus Black, 2 stencils, and some Visible Image Stamps, and to also add some dimension. 

Their creations were fabulous, but I decided to expand the one I made, into four and mount them, so here is the result.........

The stamps I used were........

Glimmer of Light and Shining Bright, 

and the stencils I used were.....

Top left..... Strobes and Stars & Stripes (with paste through),

Top Right..... Time Tunnel (with paste through) and Geometric Maze,

Bottom Left..... Cosmic Skies (with paste through) and Fibres,

and lastly Bottom Right..... Fibres and Distorted Chess (with paste through).

I used Distress inks, the images were all stamped onto white card, and heat embossed, and the light bulbs were stamped onto acetate and heat embossed.

I hope you'll have a go at some ATC's, they are so addictive to make, and fabulous to get you back into stamping, if you've lost your mojo for some reason.

Visible Image Stamps and Stencils, Pebeo Acrylic Paints, Wow EP, Liquid Pearls & Stickles.

Hellooooo,

Today is Fabulous Friday, so time for me to share a card I've created, using some awesome Visible Image products.

The Stamps I used were...........

'Born to Perform' with the large feather from 'Angels are Near', along with two superb stencils 'Time Tunnel' and 'Geometric Maze'.

The background was achieved by stippling Red, Yellow and White paint together onto the card, I then placed the Time Tunnel stencil on top, and stippled through it with yellow paint, I made some highlighting lines with a white pen, on top of that, I added the Geometric stencil, and stippled through it with Gold paint. I added red paint with a brush, for the floor.

Next I stamped the feather, using an embossing pad, and heat embossed it with Totally Teal EP, I then stamped the ballerina again with an embossing pad, and heat embossed her using Black powder. I used stickles and Liquid Pearls to colour the ballerina's dress. I stamped the starts and the sentiment, and heat embossed them with Back EP, and to finish off, I went around everything with a white pigment pen.

Visible Image Stamps, Distress Inks, & Wow EP's.

Hello, it's me again,

and it's still cold, lol, so another crafty day for me !!!
It's Fabulous Friday, but maybe not so, for many people who are cut off from civilization because of the snow, please stay warm and stay safe.

Anyway it's my day to share something cheerful,

using some awesome Visible Image Stamps.

The Stamp set I used here was....... Capricorn.

The Background was created using Distress Ink re-inkers, although you could do the same with the ink pads too, just add some water, and using a paint brush, drip it down the card. The Capricorn's head is on a piece of card that I smooshed through the left over ink, and heat embossed the goat using black EP. I stamped on the background using Oxide inks.
